What?! Barbecue baaaarbecue WIN! Congrats, man!

THAT! IS! TIME! Everybody have a good run? This week looks pretty even with the entries. Everyone had some sort of unique spin on what they did. I'd imagine it's going to take a while. So, in the meantime...or the next couple hours; kick back, relax. But after the next 90 minutes, feel...

Rings and ropes. Other than maybe Mark Wilson's Complete Course in Magic (which only goes into rope tricks; no rings). That's the only resource I have for what you're requesting, unfortunately. For rope tricks, you have Professors Nightmare, Fiber Optics, Hungarian Linking Ropes. Rings. I...

Not really. A lot of what I got a year ago is still in use. I just know it's too easy a trap to fall into.

To start, what kind of magic are you looking into? I'd recommend you get books first before you get a bunch of props you may not use in the future

Okay, around this time last year, the SNC was for a fake reveal of the newly released 'Counterfeit'. In the trick, you use a lighter to 'cauterize' the card together. I ramped this up a bit and soaked the card, some of the concrete and a cardboard box too with lighter fuel. I wanted it to...

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 am familiar with the 'demon'! I call mine 'the madness'. Let's use an example: 'The madness' had the idea to set my backyard on fire last year for an SNC...And still managed to lose (thanks! Justin Morris :p)

I gotta hand it to you. I was rolling from the beginning from the enthusiasm. The part that got me was: 'What?! Barbecue baaaaaarbecue sauce!'

OR! Or or or take an idea from Family Guy

It's potato & ad card time! https://instagram.com/p/BBMSrR5wOG8/

I'm still going to use Instagram :p Makes uploading such a painless task

Good luck to all involved!

In todays day and age, its hard to keep things away from the internet. Personally, I think of the internet as a way to get the 'first taste' in magic before a book is able to, since its faster to pull up a Youtube of a Classic Pass and whatnot--regardless if its done well, that's what people...

Ta-Da! I'm going to mention some Tenyo because that's what I have and I know it the best. Best performance pieces: - Super Cubio - The way I have the routine set up, the 'Super Cubio' (Which is this cube with a sting running down the middle of it) is made out to be a 'magician tester'...

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...

If you're dead set on card magic, I'd start with Royal Road to Card Magic. The way the book is set up is that it acts as a 'mentor'. It's a bit of a dry read, but if you follow it to a 'T', it'll keep you occupied for a while. If you're up for variety; Mark Wilsons: Complete Course in Magic...

I stated magic and cardistry when I was 30. You're going to be okay. As far as when you can perform. It's all up to you and how much practice you put into what you're doing. My recommendation is the same as Mclintock. Watch the video and get BOOKS. Not PDFs if you can help it because...

I have heard of this. It has to do with accessing a memory in a particular part of the brain that isn't there. Although I have heard it's more of both eyes looking down and to the left (your right, if you're the one looking). Not guaranteed though, I know someone who did the exact opposite...

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...
