Im going to go out today and get the coins for the practice. But I'm going to practice a couple of impromptu coin tricks. But they are BONKERS difficult to do. But worth it. Here's the thing, they are from Ray Kosby's Impossible Close-Up Magic DVD. And they are not on the Youtube preview...

Also, to lead up to the speed cube effect, I have been eye-balling 'Rubiks Rod'. Which is a pretty neat hot-Rod type effect. It's pricy, yes, but the creator hand makes every one of them himself and they are VERY well made. You can do two different colors in one go, it's a bit more...

For a while, I was practicing 'Mechanics Shift' as it was one-handed and anything difficult is up my alley. While its a definite knuckle buster (oh, you will hurt), I started seeing nuances that I didn't exactly like that would make me comfortable in working it in a real world setting. My next...

If you wait for the new 2016 line next month. You have 'Ghost Camera'. Audience picks a card and they place it in the deck, you place a handkerchief over it and they take a picture of it with their phone camera. The picture on their phone shows the card the audience chose. Real neat piece of...

I don't own either, but I'm going to go after Cube 3. - It's half the price of Cube FX - Everything you can do in Cube 3 is inspectable - the routine in Cube FX is good, but I don't see the point in the routine if you can just sit for a few hours and make your own routines anyway with such an...

I think the audience would be able to see the gimmick, and I think it's restricted to just the deck

My creative go-to has always been Tommy Cooper. The way he goes about his presentation and the props is in a direction that you wouldn't see coming. It's that sort of creative presentation of taking a prop and turning into something completely different and entertaining that I draw...

Maybe they had some leftover wood from their Elite Tenyo line =runs= I've made up my mind and looks like the only Tenyo I'm not acquiring is Future Puzzle. I'm now interested in the redemption trick they make for next April! I didn't like the one they had this year, 'Mentalist Notebook'...

I some cases (rare cases, albeit), video does work better then books in regards to tutorials. 'Raise Rise' is a card trick that was printed. However, according to Richard Kaufman and Ray Kosby, two notable names in magic, 'Raise Rise' is nearly impossible to learn from print. So there you...

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...

The more I watch it, the less I like it. Unfortunately.

Pretty good for 2 weeks. Were you alternating from top to bottom dealing? My best suggestion is to keep practicing. Bottom Dealing can take several months to get down smoothly.

Oh man, right? That was the worst!

Made an error. The trick was made in 2011. Not 2015

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...

Tenyo Magic has, I believe 3, magic apps

This one fooled Richard Kaufman. It's the biggest stumper of the 4. I have an idea of how it works if you only have 4 selections. Ironically, it's the only one of the 4 I'm LEAST interested in acquiring. This one is said to be the most popular in our parts of the world. It looks like it...
