I see your point, but I still think it looks...false. Even if I had no experience whatsoever. But it's been used for centuries, so I'm sure it goes well with an audience.

Ditto. This was a pointless thread. Thank you for wasting my time.

I agree. It's exactly the same as ChangeE, and wasn't done as well. I congratulate you for coming up with it on your own, but it just isn't original. Nobody's tying to bash you, we are giving you constructive criticism, but if you don't want it, by all means don't take it...but that's a...

So, I really am wanting to get the Cascade Control On Demand at Dan and Dave's. But there seems to be quite varied opinions on it. Some people say it's practically angle proof (with practice of course) and some say there is really only one angle that the specs can see. So...my question is this...

I have a feeling that's going to be a running joke for a while.

I don't care for the shuffle myself as I think it looks totally bogus, even in the hands of a master like England. I think the hands false shuffles look much more realistic and disarming (truffle shuffle, manfred shuffle...) I guess it's good for those wanting a good source on the move and...

I was really excited about the double lift one on one, but I was really really really hoping for something other than cards this time.

Well...here it is. Thoughts? I'm disappointed. Cards.......

For me, I'm not too fond of the pass, and yet it is a very deceptive control and very useful...once you have it down very well. Until then, I would use other controls. Work on your pass, but use other controls for the time being. As for the double undercut, I really dislike it, and...

*fingers crossed* please be coins...please be coins...please be coins.........

Very very nice. Obviously needs work, but you seem to have the mechanics down. Just need to work on making it from a display of extreme skill to a work of art and magic. (Dang I wish I was you with coins) Cheers

Exactly. Thanks for writing that. I'm not as good at putting my ideas in writing.

I can't get over that change. It's one of the most well known classic color changes out there, and still the most practical change there is. Almost impossible to screw up with a little practice.

Sorry, but I'm gonna have to agree with Fezzik on this one. It's a good idea, but it needs refining. I love the creativity though:D Cheers

If you don't have Bobo's Modern Coin Magic book, I highly recommend it. TONS of good sleights for coin magic. The basics and more. Also, if you need any help on the muscle pass, I'd love to talk about it. PM me if you want to talk about the move. (it's my favorite coin sleight:D) Cheers

It was good, but there's always room for improvement:D. Your bluff passes were good, as they flew right by your audience. The way you caught a break for your DL needed a little work. Try to make it not so obvious. The sandwich effect (which I'm assuming it was the one you created)...

I agree that you shouldn't practice each and every move that is hard. I never made the statement that you should. I just said you shouldn't diss a move that others diss. If it doesn't fit your style or practicality, then by all means don't work on it. Work on something you will use.

True dat. He does the same over on Dan and Dave's forums.

Here he is.

Just thought I'd add something. I agree the G.O.A.T. change has it's problems, but what change doesn't? Magic is really situational. No matter how much some people don't want to believe it, every thing in our repertoires can't be performed in any situation. It's the magician's job to access...
