I have a few good double lifts that I currently use, but I often hear people saying that they use a Strike Double Lift. This is one move that I don't have in any of my dvds or books. Plus, most people don't give decent instructions on how to do it at all. I'd rather not buy an entire...

There's always two sides to a story. Basically BJ gave one side, Mr. Dusheck gave his, and then you stated your conclusion (quite harshly) about the ethics of this site without a chance of rebuttal. Could you not have asked the same question without calling someone a liar?

He means dollar sized coins like Morgan Silver Dollars. Or Peace dollars. The half dollar is not the biggest coin there is.

The "move" isn't hard at all, but it does take a good amount of practice. Just don't expect a self-working trick and you'll be okay.

Right now, I'm feeling that the public has a very negative concept of what magic is. They associate it with kiddie stuff and child's play. Not to mention a few magicians I have run into are seriously some of the weirdest people I have met. When you have bad social skills, are obnoxious or...

When I opened the gimmick up, I thought, "holy crap this trick is bold!". After messing around with it a few times, it looks absolutely perfect.

This might be controversial, but I feel a lot of people say books just because they feel that's what they are supposed to say. I personally prefer teaching from a video, but I don't ignore written text. People say that video teaching stifles creativity, but if you're not really creative and...

Greg Wilson has a new product out called Freakey. It's on several sites, but that's not my point. Watch the demo of Freakey and you'll see just how well Greg manages a heckler. Basically he keeps on going, talks over the heckler trying to reveal the secret, and finishes up the trick. At...

Handling wise, Scotch and Soda is a lot dirtier. You have to jam coins in their hand a certain way. If you listen to the presentation/handling for Scotch and Soda, it's pretty weak. "Pull out the smaller coin. Oh look, it's a quarter now and the other one jumped here." There are a lot...

So, I checked my tracking number this morning when I woke up and my package had been delivered (from Connecticut to Florida), but I had to wait to pick it up due to classes. After classes I ran to my mailbox and checked out my new stuff. The first thing I opened was Digital Dissolve. What...

Wow! Can't wait.

You don't need to be spoon-fed magic. As soon as the cards disappear, you can divert the "heat" to the deck in your back pocket. So what if the Kings can't be examined immediately; you're not stuck in that position for long. Think of ways to ditch the kings while you're waiting for your...

In case other people do not know, Mathieu Bich won FISM 2006 in the Invention Category. He is incredibly creative. Take a look at his Spreadwave. I'm not even going to guess how much experimenting it took him to create that effect.

By the way, the effect in 5x5 Japan is very different, involving a card box instead of a single card.

I'm sure that's just how their confirmation email is. Mine was in the same format.

Ordered each of the new dvds. Ended up coming to a bit more than I would have liked, but the show I did today paid for that order. I guess it's an investment.

How does this compare to Torn Asunder? :)

So far so good. Excellent communication (but it's only been the first day). The supporters in the community like to know what's going on. Keep up the communication and I'm sure this site will rise to the top.

"Where the **** did you put the other cards though? Oh sorry, I swear I'm dirty." :D Hilarious. And hot.
