    Solo needs more teasers

    What do we have to do to get a teaser around here? Of course, this is just sarcasm because there are 2 or 3 videos online now but multiple teasers annoy me so this topic doesn't really have any value for discussion. What I will say though, is, get a look at MJ (that's what the pro's are...

    Europeans: Rider vs Mandolin

    Are rider back bikes dead? I don't particularly like the new mandolin cards, they don't seem to last as long but I struggle to find rider backs. I hear cost-co sell them but the closest is a 1-2 hour drive from me so it's not cost effective unless I buy a years supply. I know the turner cut...

    What's that trick with the ziplock bag?

    Before anyone says Indecent, that isn't what I'm looking for. It came out a while ago and in the trailer someone was deming it on the Vegas strip. I thought it was Lee Asher but I can't find it on his site. Effect: a joker is in a clear plastic bag at the beginning, the ziplocked bag is then...

    Pure, really?

    Is it just me or does anyone else think Ekaterina is a joke? Obviously I've only seen the stuff that's on the trailer but it looks crap. When compared with Genesis, Trilogy and even Papercuts it doesn't add anything to the world of cardistry. I can't help but feel like they're just trying to...

    "Limited" trend is shocking

    Over the last 5 years custom playing cards have had a serious boom in popularity, which is really great because we have a choice of so many beautiful decks. My issue is that companies like T11, DnD and Ellusionist are incredibly misleading when they use the term "limited". Because of the time...

    Fool Us still taking auditions?

    I've had a little search on the web and magicweek.co.uk but I can't see if a second series has been secured for Fool Us. I'd quite like to audition for it so if anyone has a link, website, email address or any info whatsoever on it would you take a moment to reply please.

    The shattering bottle trick

    I think David Blaine was the first person I saw perform the trick where someone holds a bottle and it breaks/explodes in their hands after a short amount of time. Most recently on Dynamo's series the bottle breaks around the bottom, circular part of the bottle. I've only ever seen this...

    For the workers, go big or tease?

    Over the years I've known a lot of professional, working magicians that say when first meeting someone do your best few tricks. I know that's not always possible for the people whos best tricks require gimmicks but I think that if you meet a potential client and show them your 5 most hard...

    I'm going to learn that on youtube

    I now understand the power of putting up fake tutorials up on youtube. I popped in to a restaurant to show them magic just by chance that they might want to book me and one of them was a real tough customer, constantly wanted to check the cards, shuffle the cards etc...anyway I was there for...

    Equasion for different card positions?

    Are there any math geniuses out there that know the correct sum to calculate how many different positions a card can be in? I'm not talking about 1 in 52, I'm talking about every possible permutation of every single card at any one time. Each card can be in 52 different positions and each...

    People are addicted to cards now?

    leeasher.com crashed at the jerrys launch a couple weeks ago. E has been down for hours because of the red artifice launch. DnD will probably be the same story for the release of V6. What is going on? Has card "collecting" become that popular?

    Tailor your personality or be yourself?

    Firstly to clarify, I don't mean creating a character and performing under that character like Chris Angel's gothic/rock presentation. I'm talking about the way you speak, act, walk, stand, sit, your hair style, dress sense, taste in music.....what makes you you. A lot of magicians (and...

    Custom cards, the current magic fad?

    Back in the 90's when I was in school one year yo-yo's were the in thing one year, then pokemon cards exploded one year....are custom cards what's cool at the moment in magic? Because it seems everyone is making them. I enjoy buying and using new cards as much as the next person but how much...

    Good cards in Vegas?

    A friend is in Vegas for a few day soon and said he'll pick up some cards for me. He's gonna grab clipped casino ones but are there any worthwhile for magic/flourishing? Like the stingers on here or something. He'll only be on the strip and doing his own thing most of the time so it has to be...

    Lee Ashers Fournier 605's

    Not really related to T11 or the products but hope to get some of your opinions. I have a card wall I'd like to add one green and one brown 605 to it but at $11 they're double the price of other cards plus the price to ship them to England which is likely to be another $10. I like to try...

    Coin Unique Problem

    It's been years since I had a coin unique and decided to add it to my repertoire again so I got a new one (£1, 1p) and it's not how I remember. The penny doesn't slot in to the pound very easily, it requires a bit of a push. I didn't get a cheap one, it was £30 ($60-75). If I close my hand...

    How well do you know your cards?

    Little bit of a competition for Christmas (no prize, I'm poor). How many of these cards on my ever growing card wall do you know? UPDATE:and with every card it grows stronger, it's even migrated from the wall to take over my desk.
