I note they're stocking a book called Proximity Effects by a really good looking guy called Dee Christopher... I've heard it's pretty cool :P ..A little harmless self plug never hurt anyone... ;) D.

It's not difficult to figure out how he got the corner on the clock hand - An accomplice wouldn't necessarily be needed at all! Daniel wouldn't show something in the demo performance that isn't possible. The whole point of his material is that it's very, very practical... D.

I disagree really, there's a huge difference between the kind of material that T11/E releases and the general quality and style of stuff in the more commercially available stuff. I mean, say the guy's effect is a little packet trick like emerson and west's monte stuff - the colour monte sold...

Before considering your options on releasing anything you should take a look at the effect you've developed and place it up there with all the stuff that is on the market currently, admittedly there is some pretty bad stuff out there, but you DEFINITELY don't want to release something mediocre...

ZG is a cool effect, but it's not the same effect as GF at all, you're making a piece of paper impossibly rigid enough to hold an object in ZG and you're impossibly balancing the fork in GF... D.

This is a great product, Steve mentioned it a while ago to me and I'm waiting for my royalties to come thru so I can pick it up myself. I do the PK pen atm, but imagine the G-force version there instead, it would fit so much better with all the other crazy things I do with cutlery!!:) D.

Thanks for the kind review! I'm really happy you like the stuff! :D And 9.7 out of 10?:P Sexy. Anyone else with the book have any thoughts? I'd love to hear what everyone else thinks of my work :) Cheers, D.

I'm getting paid a substantial amount of money to do just this for a show this year...I'd need a councilor if i was not to do it!:P D.

I'm not sure how old this thread is, but stumbled across it... I find understanding when people feel that TnRs aren't super easy most of the time, but I don't agree with the impracticality statement. Most TnR's use some extra card, that's it...I admit, the torn too gimmick is a bit daunting...

It's a tough subject, because there is alot of talented young guys - I mean some of the flourish video's blow me away, and then the guys are like super young... But like I mentioned, honestly, if you saw T11 had some new artist announced who was a 12 year old kid, people would be like what? I...

Alot of people start in magic when they're very young, I was introduced to the art at 4!:P I suppose it really depends what your meaning behind performing is, One might perform for his parents at a very young age, or family and friends and not do any real gigs till their much older, or...

Hellbound is nice - check out the one on one for that, I use it quite alot really - it's very cheeky and looks pretty magical :) I'd say pick up Unicoin out of those 2 really...but that's just me - if you want to play around with some really nice visual coin stuff Homer's stuff is pretty sexy...

I've heard great things about the high caliber stuff - A couple of colleagues of mine have got them and think they're great! Plus I imagine it'd make you feel like james bond ;) D.

$500-$600 would be a pretty reasonable price for that strong an effect, supposing it's workable anyway. I mean Icarus is $400... 8 inches off the ground is a pretty big distance, imagine having that set and being able to do that in the middle of a party you've been hired to perform... EVERYONE...

There are ton's of magicians that do restaurants or walk around stuff in bars, etc. I pretty much only get hired to do those kinds of events, like parties, events, openings, stuff like that. If you're good, and you really push and market yourself, you'll get work in that arena. It's much easier...

A friend of mine was quite involved with this product at swears by it. I've heard only good things so far, but looking forward to seeing some un-biased reviews,etc. as it does look pretty great, I was unsure with the original video's I saw, but the phone vanish killed me :P D.

That'd be a pretty impressive feat. You should release a DVD on the effect. D.

They are great DVDs, have a look around the forums and you'll see the response it's got. Very slick, Very visual, very nicely routined. Buy them now!! Also, they come in very cool packaging ;) D.

I think it's a good effect, it's nicely routined and leaves the spectator with an impossible souvenir. It does require some set up, yes - it's not just a simple spoon bend or something. How can one REALLY expect to be able to bend a borrowed wine glass there and then? To bend glass you need...

It really depends. i just got back from a meet up where I absolutely FLOORED a table of magicians with a new impromptu PK effect of mine. I've been working on the effect in that form for about a week. Practice until you feel you're ready, if you have family or people that it doesn't matter...
