    Any Interest in Anglo Decks?

    Just checked www.el-duco.se .. One "rug" deck is priced at 6 dollars.. Way too expensive don´t you think? But maybe there is a market for these cards... Like I said, flourishers are always looking for something new:)

    How do you dribble cards?

    End grip is the standard grip for the dribble and more useful when it comes to combining with sleight of hand. The corner grip looks fancier though and produces a nicer and smoother dribble...

    Any Interest in Anglo Decks?

    Anglo´s are really not good cards. Normal bicycles are much better. They are made by swedens biggest (and only?) card manufacturer and aimed toward magicians actually but unfortunately the quality is miles away from U.P.C.C cards. Trust me, I have been using those cards a lot. The back design...

    By Forces Unseen

    It is true that this is not a book of "workers", but it most definitely is a one that will amaze you and remind you why you like magic. Everything in this book is soo clever! I am sure that you will enjoy and have fun with it. I have many books on magic but this one is still top 5.

    Nursery Rhymes 1-3

    Trilogy is the only thing I own from the Buck brothers and I am very pleased with that. I am curious about a pdf bundle available at their homapage that contains nursery rhymes 1-3... Is there something I can learn from these notes that I can not from the trilogy? What is the quality and...

    T11 is too worried about flourishes?

    I don´t think I have read a single post by you where you actually try to be something other then pain in the ass. Allways a negative comment without any argument to back you up. Why so angry? Theory11 should strike a better balnance between flourishing and magic... After all the site is...

    Opinion

    Having the level of experience you claim you do makes your question odd to me. I mean we should be asking you questions....

    T11 is too worried about flourishes?

    Just as expected... another cut in 1-on-1 section for the big wallets of theory 11 fans:) hmmm... The theory team sure does not listen to the common opinion on the site about the 1-on- 1:s.

    Before you get your copy of SURFACED

    I get you. I rated your peformance with 4/5 but it is neither a) nor is it b) in my book. The originator still does it better;) So stop sounding so cocky all the time because you combined two routines with each other. And I agree it is a sad thing that magic is exposed by bad performances...

    Doesn't this effect look VERY similar to T11's Prophet?

    members of the forum often seem to think that everything originates from Theory11. Prophet is by no means original and that is also stated in the advertisment for this trick.

    Discrepancy Dribble Control

    Sorry. I just felt you had missed my point from my earlier post which was written in response to Medifro. I apologize for the sarcasm... just felt that you jumped into discussion without reading the post.

    Discrepancy Dribble Control

    Medifro, just like you I like the scholar aspect of magic. I respect your knowledge and I am well aware of the common opinions on card handling and misdirection. My point was simply that there are sleights made to look fair and to deceive at closest scrutiny. And I also believe that they are...

    Discrepancy Dribble Control

    Okay. Maybe you don´t read much but it is a general opinion that sleights no matter how good they are should be done while looking away from your hands and having eye contact with the spectator. I could give you dozens of sources in literature where this is discussed. And if you really have...

    Discrepancy Dribble Control

    I know that standard opinion in magic is that every secret move should be accompanied of misdirection. However I don´t believe this to be a absolute rule. Some moves are designed to be looked at and done under scrutiny. If I recall correctly there is a anecdote mentioned in Aaron Fischers book...

    Discrepancy Dribble Control

    I will give it a try because I like it for some reason. My main dilemma came from the fact that if I understand the move correctly then it is intended to be a move that can be done while spectators are burning your hands. If you misdirect from the whole thing there would not be a discrepancy in...

    Cards, cards, and more cards.

    It amazes me how much effort is put into discussion of such highly subjective thing like card quality. I mean there are numerous forum threads dealing with this totally uninteresting subject. Another thing is the hype created about certain cards. Everybody who knows something is using tellys...
