I've only been in magic for a little over a year, and I want to make 'Raise Rise' a permanent fixture of any routine I can possibly do. Not sure if I'm being ambitious (ha ha), or if I'm an idiot. I understand that the Ambitious Riser move is a tough move that takes quite a lot of time and...

What did YOU miss this weekend? Chances are, you didn’t go to the Tenyo Festival in Japan. Might have been busy. Prior engagements. Or the whole THOUSANDS of miles of distance between the festival and your home. It’s okay! I didn’t go either. Something about having a brain injury and...

This week, we’re reviewing another LUBOR FIEDLER effect! But there’s TWO reasons why ‘Ghost Card’ is up for this week’s review: 1) Yesterday was the release for Blake Vogt’s ‘Invisible Card’. Considering the name of what we’re doing this week is ‘Ghost Card’ I feel the name fit. At least...

School has stated again. Well for some of you--especially the parents out there. Instead of going month by month (what I've been doing so far). What is your goal for the next few months? What big goal (or goals) are you working towards? What are you looking to get from achieving those goals?

So it's a bit early for September, and I missed August. So what are your cardistry goals for the next month? All I'm going to do this month is polishing up: Backpack, Rinzler, Recto Verso, Glatiron, and T3 Cut. No deviation, that's what I'm sticking to. What are your cardistry goals?

Get out a #2 pencil, I’ll provide the paper; we’re going to take some notes over Tenyo Magic’s ‘MAGIC MEMO PAD’! This week isn’t going to be filled with so many links. In fact, no links at all. Part of it is that I keep bungling them up when I post these. Last weeks was so bad, I had to make...

Variety is the spice of life. However, some variety, like unfavorable foods, we can do without. And unfortunately, we don't know with Cardistry which moves work and don't work until we learn it and later regret it. So here's my question: What move have you gone through all the way and...

Here we go! I'm in the works of making a children's show. I found a table I want to use that I have found in a camping website (because 90% of products that deal with packing props or performing in are extremely overpriced) but it recently occurred to me that I have never accounted for the...

I have a question for all you 'engineers'. Pros and novices, young and old. I was looking on the Wire and all over the internet for various tricks and methods and props to utilize (yes, I am looking OUTSIDE of my regular Tenyo channels). Because why not? And I realized that there is a very...

All right. This got put on my radar because Tenyo is releasing it in their 2016 line in a couple months. I checked out the actual trick and it looks...rather wacky and ripe for mayhem! Since the original version is pretty much sold out everywhere except the UK (and the conversion to the Pound...

I didn't want to hijack CrazyClements thread. So here it goes. I love the works of Tommy Cooper and his way of performing magic comedically. Which is the sort of magic I want to do, and 'Counterfeit' looks ripe for mischief. However, questions must be asked! 1) can any type of card be used...

Magic. Cardistry. Multimedia. Easy peazy. Let's do this. What is 'next in line' in your line of magic, Cardistry, deck collecting and/or competitive car-washing purchases for the next month or so? I'll start. I'm poor right now, so the only way I'm going to be able to afford anything is...

IT’S TACO TUESDAY! and we’re going to review a Tenyo that is WAAAAAAAY down in everyone’s ‘favorites’ list. In fact, it’s pretty much one of the ‘top 5 least favorite Tenyo’. I’m not sure if ‘the worst of’ would be a list that goes up. I thought it would be a ‘Bottom 5 Tenyo’. But that just...

All right. We have all needed flourish tutorials in order to acquire a larger inventory of tools. However, some tutorials almost seem like they make a Point to be harder to learn from than doing the flourish itself. And I say this because it's taken me the better part of a week now wat hing...

So I'm trying to write magic reviews, but I think I have a limited scope of the different settings one can perform magic. Here's what I think exist: - Show for kids - Close-up show - Stage show - Close-up busking (restaurant, for - example) - Street magic - Parlour Have I missed any others?

All right. I have 5 packet tricks. Each of the have a small variance in difficulty here and here. Mostly with presentation, but a couple also benefit from sleights and fancy handiwork I have one in which I purposely MADE more difficult in order to take away some potential issues and make it...

It's Tuesday, and I'm amped up on caffeine! Woooooo! So I have a question for everyone who has participated in any Saturday Night Contest: Which one was your favorite to participate in and why?

It’s midnight where I’m at. So guess what? IT’S TENYO TUESDAY! GET EXCITE!!!! I wanted to do another review of another Tenyo that is friendly for kids to perform. I had about 7 of them lined up and I did ‘Psychic Money’ last week. The others had some idiosyncrasies that might make them...

All right. I'm doing some research for one of my weekly Tenyo reviews. I have a Tenyo in my inventory that regards a 'floating bill' effect (Cloud Money). I'm now trying to research different floating bill effects and I'm trying to make a sort of compare-and-contrast to how well the Tenyo...

All right. So @Andrei 's 'Backpack' is giving me quite the runaround. Ive (sort of) figured some If he kinks, but I've noticed that my hand is inadvertently holding the deck up to my face. I guess this is so I have peripheral vision on it. I would like to be able to do the damn thing...
