    Negative Feedback From People

    Yeah, though not many people do too many magic tricks. I mean, every once in a while people show each other a trick or 2, but there are only 2 kids who actually do stuff with the cards outside of games. One does some cardistry and the other magic (hint: I'm the magician). People play games all...

    Aristocrat Banknote Playing Cards - Deck Review

    I have found that Aristocrat stock is softer, but is ridiculously durable. I have bought some aristocrats from the dollar store (Casinos cut the corners and sell them for $1) and they are super durable. They will probably last you longer than a bike.

    Negative Feedback From People

    All I know is that both in my middle school, and in high school right now, people carry decks of cards all the time. It might be a regional thing, both places I've lived were pretty densely populated, and in the area of a huge city (Philly & DC)

    Classic Pass Questions

    So do you know any full on tricks or routines that you would actually perform? The pass is useless without a tick and a presentation. It isn't a move you show to people. You might want to work for a month or 2 more before even attempting to learn it because it will definitely be difficult for...

    I don't know. Every other person in my high school carries cards. Maybe its a regional thing, or maybe its just the fact that we have a lot more time on our hands in school these days.

    Classic Pass Questions

    So before I can help you, how much of a beginner are you to magic, and where are you learning it from? This will help me help you. Also, I can't really respond for another hmmm 8 hours minimum so let me just give you the stuff I can tell you any ways. A) It is a super hard move and only comes...

    Something Weird I Noticed

    Wait... top change? Or Top palm. I am now confused. Y u do dis? :D I think you mean top palm lol, so just to continue: I really think that the top palm is great. Even the 2 handed top palm, which is the one I am more comfortable with, can be manipulated to throw off all suspicion. I love to...

    Smooth Finish?

    Thanks! I've been meaning to pick up the Encyclopedia for a while, but have been pretty busy with other stuff lately. Just to be clear, you mean car wax as the stuff that goes directly onto the outer frame of the car right? Or do you mean tire wax? Oh and buffing would be just with like a...

    Horizontal ITR of a ring

    That's a pretty good bargain. It is, from what I understand, competing with T2 by Yigel Miseka. If you buy to T2s, you pay $150, which is 130 euros. In fact, you got venom $10 U.S. Cheaper than in the U.S, not to mention that$5 flat rate shipping. :p I so want to buy one, but then I realize...

    Smooth Finish?

    Hey guys. So I recently had a really weird idea about making a couple gaff cards super slick to do certain moves. Specifically, I was looking at a home made blank, and noticed that sometimes it would stick too much to the card below it while I did a top change, which was a serious problem (I...

    Creating a small street show.

    Lol I was about to ask you on the post you just posted. I will definitely hit you up on this, as I have a lot of questions. Expect a PM in a day or so, maybe even later today if I have time. Thx! Your video will probably also help me get a good understanding.

    Reading ahead in books

    No no no, of course not. I'm saying that if the chapter is a continuation of the overhand shuffle from a previous chapter, you might be confused when specific things are mentioned, where as something like a palm would still be easy to understand.

    Reading ahead in books

    Some books are made to be read in Chronological Order. For example, the Royal Road builds on things it teaches, and makes a sort of skill tree with things you've learned previously. However, you can skim through anything that you think you already know, or don't really want to focus on, or just...

    Something Weird I Noticed

    Hey guys. So I felt a need to go back and revise my top palms, so I went into the Royal Road and started reading through the palming section. I noticed something kind of weird, at least to me. Whenever I was focusing on getting the palms, it seemed like it was super unnatural, and kept landing a...

    Resources on overhand shuffle stacking

    Yes, now that I think about it, that is very true. Personally, I only study Expert At the Card Table because it intrigues me. However, I do not perform any gambling routines, and my false deals are from another grip, so the Erdnase one's seem weird to me. There are somethings in that book I...
