    Tablehopping Routine?

    As for ninja rings, I usually do not do a 4 ring routine at the table. I perform "Ninja Plus" by Matthew Garrett. Here is a video of ninja plus using the finger ring (the second-third segment is what I perform at the table + either sponges or cards depending on time.) As for card effects, I...

    Tablehopping Routine?

    TT is another great tool because you can make basically anything at the table disappear! :)

    Tablehopping Routine?

    Along with what Prof_Utonium said (besides adding a little chemical X ;) hehe) your tricks should be quick, fun and instantly reset. Your goal is to hit as many tables as you can in the amount of time you are there. For me, I usually do 2 hours. I want to hit as many tables as I can and hand out...

    Tablehopping Routine?

    IMO you should only use the table to set props down on. You should never perform on a table. This is because usually there is little space, or the spectator's view is blocked by plates, drinks, centerpiece, etc. I usually pretend the table doesn't exist and will only set an object down on the...

    Finger Ring Magic

    I second that. I also have found Tungsten Carbide to work best as far as weight and durability are concerned. They are about $20 usually. I have dropped mine about 50 times and it looks the same as the day I bought it!

    Finger Ring Magic

    As for how loose it should be. IMO it should be loose enough that you can easily slide it on and off your index finger. It also depends what you want to do with it too though....

    Finger Ring Magic

    If you are looking for flourishes, I would check out "DeRing" by D'Vo As for ring magic itself... "Ring thing" by Garrett Thomas is a classic. "Circuit" by Zach Heath is pretty cool (comes with a bonus "Closed Circuit" which I use in all of my shows.) "If you already perform chinese linking...

    Card Swap

    There are several ways you can easily switch two cards. You can use a Double Lift, Palm off a card, perform a color change (there are several to chose from), top change, and the list goes on. If you truly want to use a gimmick, the most visual one is called "WOW." You will see it all over...

    Question to Become a Better Magician

    NEVER ENGAGE A HECKLER DIRECTLY! Unless you are Joe Rogan and have a whole list of witty responses for every situation, yoyu will lose... every single time. Honestly the best advice is to simply ask them to stop and allow the rest of the audience (who is trying to watch the show) enjoy it. I...
