'Not so Tenyo Tuesday!' I do actually have things that AREN'T Tenyo (but pretty close to it). Maybe after I get my children's hospital show and close-up set together, I'll actually get some other tricks (I'm really interested in the 'Hot Rod' variant: 'Rubik's Rod'). But for the time being...

I used to collect Hot Wheels cars. I actually used to have a rather large collection in my early twenties. It wasn’t until after we had the twins that I realized the folly of collecting: you’re holding onto something for someone else at an undetermined time in the future. So I gave them all...

I am curious about this: what is the point of displaying the depleted Elite Archive items? I believe that most, if not all, won't be coming back to the archive (namely the autographed items), so why show them?

Here's the thing: I see a LOT of threads asking about resources on ___(magic subject here)___. IT's a bit exhausting to see when a search or two can get the answers you need. So with that, I want to try and get a stickied post in which anyone can click on it and find the BOOK information they...

I just received a great and special Tenyo yesterday: the ‘Big Mac Cubio’! I’m really stoked about it—despite having a very similar Cubio trick already. ‘Big Mac Cubio’ is extremely hard to find, and now its sitting in my Children’s Hospital routine case. Expect a review on it next...

All right. I'm ready to make a couple of tutorials, but I'm not sure if I'd be in the clear for doing so. Both tutorials I intend on doing are move variants (namely, one is an 'Erdnase Go Round' variant, and the other is a 'Rinzler' variant). Both of the originating flourishes are paid...

I'm sure that we all have a deck in our stash that's broken-into and trusty for flourishing in a pinch. I am curious as to what that deck is for you. For me, it's my trusty NoMads. Had the same deck since last April, broken-in, and works like a dream when I need to work on the knacky stuff.

I’m getting closer and closer to completing my Children’s Hospital sets. I did some reprioritizing and I need 5 more Tenyo to do it—well, 4, technically. One of them is stupid expensive and can wait a bit. But I’m about to get 3 of them, and the 4th might take a bit. But after that, it’s...

So I just re-sorted all the Tenyo magic tricks I have to review and intend to acquire within the year (excluding anything from the 2017 line later this year and MAYBE the 2016 ‘redemption’ packet trick). The list has regenerated itself from being a small list of Tenyo that I haven’t reviewed...

Question: Was there a winner announced for last weeks Facebook contest? Or was a winner contacted through a private message? Or did I miss something?

We are all busy on a project, a sleight, a flourish, a gig, finding that special deck; the magic and cardistry community does not rest. So I ask this: what are you working on for the month of February? Do you have a goal in mind? A project you're working on? Or just getting better at a move...

I was sifting through the 20 reviews I still have yet to do a 'Tenyo Tuesday' on and I stumbled across this little thing! Apparently, when I first started, I wrote a review of this just to get ahead of the curve. However, since then, I sort of found my way of writing these things and spent the...

I figured this would be an interesting topic and maybe help some of the new guys out to 'get competitive'. So here it is: What is a secret you contest veterans are willing to divulge in regards to the SNC contests? I'll start with this: poster putty! Oh man! Poster putty. It saved my...

I asked this question on a Tenyo forum earlier in the week and now I am curious about a large range of magic. What are your best and your worst performance pieces? Not exactly your favorite trick. But what is it in your repertoire that really works that you enjoy. On the other side of the...

Okay, truth be told, I was going to wait until I wrote this review because I was going to review several of Tenyo’s ‘Cubio’ variants at the same time, making it a sort of multi-review. But the ONE ‘Cubio’ I’ve been shooting for in the last year; I believe I’ve deduced that it’s going to be so...

I know it's best to keep an open mind about things--especially in magic where all possibilities are considered and everything is a gray area. But I am curious: is there a particular trick (or tricks), a plot, a routine, or even a subset of magic that you just flat out WILL NOT consider? I'll...

Recently, my daughter and I went over our magic inventories because I was thinking of getting rid of some of my current Tenyo to trade for other Tenyo—or sell some in order to get some more expensive Tenyo (When I mean ‘expensive’, you’d weep). The one we are reviewing this week is a trick I...

I am SO trying to keep up with the new round of 'Tenyo Tuesdays!', especially since what I have left are really simple Tenyo that are sort of tough to make a review on, or Tenyo that have A LOT of things to them that make it tough to pin down if, and when, they would be good to implement. So...
