For me, a sleight becomes an obsession and I don´t leave it before I have nailed it.. But of course having lack of patiance does belong to a cerain age.. I remember my self as a teen. I got so overexcited about things I learned that I wanted to show it as soon as possible no matter how poor my...

He was ill... Leukemia or some other form of cancer.. It escapes me now.

... This whole purist thing is like a fixation to you. You have been mentioning this on several occasions. Being a purist for the sake of being a purist is just plain stupid. Having a open mind and realising that subtle use of gimmicks can sometimes greatly improve your magic is a better...

I just want to bring attention to one of the most beautifully produced magic books out there, and one that actually made me shad a tear. Jack Parker is a British magician who recently passed away in his early thirties. Unfortunately he did not live to see the printed version of his book which...

I agree with the first part... The expectations of lay people have become higher. They have seen Chris Angel, David Blaine, Copperfield do the impossible so of course they have grown de-sensitised to magic a bit.. Finding a choosen card or making it jump to the top 100 times has been witnessed...

Just wondering if anybody is using discrepancy dribble control (d.d.c.) from trilogy and what your opinions about it are. It is so bold that I don´t dare to try it but at the same time it looks so appealing to me. I just love moves relying on optical illusions.

the change looks good but consider doing a all around square up as you pull the card under the deck. That provides cover for the sliding finger motion that is visible in the video but as I said the mechanics of the change are fine

Correct me if I am wrong but the purpose of 1-on-1 is education. Of course not everything appeals to everybody but publishing stupid cuts week after week educates nobody. It is not about who needs what, it is about delivering quality no matter if it is basic or advanced. I have not purchased...

I agree with you Jaydinho. It does not look so smooth or impressive and anybody who know basics of magic will figure it out anyways.. The whole 1-on-1 section has become pointless. It is supposed to educate people and it started that way but for past few weeks we just get throw aways, fancy...

the art I think that this is flourishing with presentation more that a review! This actually has entertainment value:)

I can do superflip almost in perfect alignment. If you do it from a break you get a perfect change because there is no air between two top cards. If you dribble and retain two cards and then flip you get more separation. Also from break the flip is faster. That is my observation. You can see my...

Just occured to me that superflip change can be used as a secret action:) Here is a quicky... Have a doublebacker on top of the deck. Have a card selected and controlled to the top above the db. Dribble the cards to show how fair you are but in fact excecute a superflip thus reversing...

I think they should have published some kind of table of contents on their website.

why does it take a week to process?? my credit card was charged immediately?

Just placed my order..:) :) now lets see what everybody is talking about.... :eek:

.......... I started reading this thread with lot of compassion for the state you are/were in but towards the end you started to irritate me... Becoming suicidal??? There is one big problem with practicing a lot and keeping magic private and that is that you are distancing your self...

pasteboard syndicate I found out that it is available at pasteboard syndicate but this site looks just like a forum and there are no products advertised...??

That is the creator right? Is it published anywhere??

Can you tell me if there is a source for the tornado flourish that I often see. I have a limited interest in this genre but that move looks soo cool... Thx for your help!

hmm.... My problem with the video is that I can not judge your ability to perform this move. There is a sound problem in this trick that is covered with music on the video. Webcam is way too blurry when it comes to quick movement so I don´t know how visible the displacement of the card is irl...
