    Dear Wayne Houchin...

    Wayne, I've been into magic for a little over a year and just had a few questions: How did you get your start in magic? How did you get to where you are today? What's your story?

    Free theory11 trick for double-backed cards?

    So, I just got my 2nd edition Guardians in the mail today... What a difference! Amazing deck of cards. Anyway, I digress. I noticed that the Guardians come with a double-backed card... I feel like I might be asking for too much here, but it only makes sense to me... Would Theory 11 be willing to...

    Possibility of The Pass being featured in the 1on1 section?

    Well, as the title asked, that's what I'm wondering. I'm not too interested in the classic pass, but more intrigued by the pass where the deck is rotated in the hands and executed during the rotation. (Not sure of the name...) My dream 1on1 video would feature multiple versions of the pass so I...

    Question for any and all Theory11 Artists...

    Hey all, I've been into magic for a little over a year and I just got the opportunity to visit a magic shop for the first time. (It's Magic located in Hermitage, TN) I noticed that the employees had SAM and IBM patches on each sleeve. I asked them about it and they said they're both great...

    Best Tricks from the Trilogy

    Hey guys, Of all the tricks taught in the Trilogy, which is your favorite? I personally like Deja Vu. Deja Vu was the first trick I've seen where two sandwiches switch places and doesn't take as much skill as some other tricks out there. Any other favorites? Do you like it because it's easy...

    Can someone please enlighten me?

    Ok, I've seen people all over the forums going nuts over these Wynn Decks... What's the big deal? Is this just a magic fad? As far as I know they're just a deck of cards that not a whole lot of people have heard of...until now. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't even think they're specifically...

    Nate Staniforth

    Woah, I just saw a performance DVD at E featuring Nate Staniforth... I've only seen him once before, and that was on the Kard Klub DVD in the, I think it was the bonus section for winning an E video contest (correct me if I'm wrong) and I really thought it was a good video, but I never thought...

    Re-sealing Opened Decks (in plastic)

    Hey guys, Cyril Takayama does a really nice ambitious card routine (which gets phenomenal reactions, but... what do you expect? It's Cyril.) and uses a great ending where the deck is completely re-sealed (in plastic... not just the sticker.) and restored with the spectator's signed card inside...

    Purchase History Question

    Hey guys, Ok, I'm not really sure this is the right place for this thread, but I put it here 'cause this is a more popular place than, say, the Secret Underground Corny Kinship Society... (aka S.U.C.K.S.) Anyway, I created an account here at Theory 11 and placed an order and I'm expecting it...

    Card Guards

    Hello people, Does anyone here regularly use card guards? I mean every time you go out with a deck of cards, does it have a guard? If so, what kind is it and what type of magic and cards do you do/use? For example, I don't use a card guard (although I do have one) and I just use standard...

    Creating Real Magic

    Doing magic for people is one thing. Captivating your audience and creating a moment where all is forgotten but what is happening right then and there is a completely different thing. I've been doing magic since July of '06 and I'm ready to take it to the next level. What can I do to take my...

    Hey guys, I've been really interested in tricks with fire for a while and I've got some birthday cash coming my way soon, so, here's the question: What is the best pyro effect you've come across? Minimal set-up is always good, but I'm willing to go through as much prep as Fraud (for those of...

    Access Denied.

    Hey guys, I've uploaded a video to the media section a couple of days ago, and I know it has to be reviewed by the guys here at T11, just to make sure it's appropriate. Just one question: What happens if a video is unacceptable and can't be posted in the media section? Do you get an email...

    This one's for all you card guys out there...

    Hey guys, I'm seriously considering switching from Bicycle to Tally-Ho. I know that standard Bikes have the air-cushion finish and the Tally-Ho Vipers have the UV500 Air-Flow Finish. I've been using my Vipers for flourishing and I've been really impressed. Is the same true for the regular...
