slow it down, you look jerky and suspicious. Look up Proteus and bowtostern control on you tube there are some good performances to give u an idea of how slow and beautiful this move can be.

I just got the real mans CTW wallet and its great. I used to use Mesika's but I dont like its design as far as a real wallet goes. My problem however is in routining. I have a 5 stage ACR that I think is pretty good, utilizing Kostya's undercover switch at first, then tilt, then the card...

does the affect require specific clothing?

thanx for the feedback! Is it possible to invent a new sleight anymore? Even the "new" sleights like the clipshift or cherry control are just enhancements or refinements to already existing ones like the panoramic shift and the one handed pass. Thanks for the positive feedback this...

I was playing around with an idea late last night and I wanted to post it for some thoughts: I do a strike DL, and let the card fall face up outjogged about 1/2 inch to 1 inch. When I am going to turn the double face down, I grab its outer right corner with my thumb on top and first and...

cherry control, invisible pass, bow-to-stern control, to the bottom you have convincing control, pizzaz (?) control, longitudinal swivel steal these are all very deceptive when done perfectly

the cherry control looks great when done well and is extremely convincing that you are not holding the position of the card. That being said, while practical, there are much easier ways to go, but this looks so good if you do it right

thanx for the info. I think i know what flaw your talkin about and it has to do with my thumb, but as i said, i taught myself this move so its kinda a work in progress. I'll look at secrets draun from the underground, but in the meantime im gonna play with this some more

I had an idea showing the face of the right hand packet could be justified by briefly saying that "you could have picked any card", or "you could of stoped me earlier", etc. etc.

yeah the title was kinda sarcastic i guess. and FYI a shift or pass title can be applied to a single card moving, and not packets

one more note: the tilting of the right hand cards is made as in a slight casual gesture. With a video highlighting the move it looks fishy but it is less blatent in performance

It gives an excuse for the right hand cards to approach the left at a slightly odd angle and also gives you an excuse to look down casually which can aid in the replacement. If you dont tilt the cards up it looks really awkward

Hey all, Just wanted to share this with you. Im sure its not an original sleight, being as simple as it is, but I developed it on my own. I also have never seen it anywhere, but please share any info if you know. This might seem too simple to work but it really does, especially when...

its not the effect, which has a lot of potential. its the actual quality of the gimmick that is not too good. It doesnt look like damage aquired during shipping, too, and unfortunately i cant really say without revealing. The ellusionist forum moderators told me to contact them with photos...

This has great potential, and some others who have reviewed this seem to have a better experience than me. I just want to put this out on the web for all potential buyers to be aware of. This is crap. The gimmick, which is difficult to make, looks nothing like it does on video. mine looks...

this is the kind of question that 30 minutes of practice would answer. Use a mirror or a video camera and experiment.

identity by richard sanders is a great effect especially if you are meeting these people for the first time. card to impossible location: wallet, the effect "shoe't" is great i love autograph If you can find it, Holey Terror 2 is a great card trick, even done on tv but i forget who...

its does require a certain type of palming that is much easier than a classic palm, but if you are not familiar with some other sleights the wallet will be pointless for you. I have mesikas wallet that is identical (except for price lol) and i love it except for the little button clasp that...

i have heard about a psychological forcing method that came out recently (dee christopher maybe, cant remember) that allows you to do this when you get it right. Is this the method you are referring to and if so could you elaborate on your experience with it?
