In the RRTCM palm, the card is angled and springs up. In the push off, it does slide into your hand, but it is nearly soundless and is better covered, in my opinion. The angled card and the sound of the spring put me off. When I do the palm, I square up a messy deck––not an already squared...

William, I'm glad that you like it! I love talking about technique as well. What I don't like about the method described is that it requires a lot of hand movement and a bit of noise. I also have a different timing for the palm. In RRTCM, the authors suggest making the motion of squaring the...

I've been trying out a few psychological forces recently that work well. Daniel Madison's Psycho is a good place to start. That being said, thought-of cards can strengthen any normal routine in which the spectator chooses a card.

I'm going through the Royal Road course for the first time in my seven years of doing magic. About time, right? I'm going through the palming section and thought I'd strike up a good conversation about it. I really don't like the top palm method provided in the book, nor do I like the tricks...

I'm retaking the Royal Road course and am proving it a great resource. If you want some fellowship while studying the book, feel free to hit me up.

1. It seems like you've been off the radar for a while. What have you been doing these past few years? 2. Did the commercial with HP feel like spreading magic in an accessible way or selling out? 3. If you could only perform one trick, which one would it be?

Great video. I agree with the principles of originality. Instant gratification is the game these days.

Do you mean his Spritz Switch?

JP, thanks for the info! It helped a lot. I don't think SB is for me––I agree with Randy that it seems a bit over the top. Where is a good source from which to learn the classic switch?

Thanks for the help, JP. I had no idea about Criminal. I also didn't consider a bill switch. What makes the Kozlowski switch stand out from the rest? Also, someone over at Ellusionist commented that Serial Biller costs over $100 to make. If that's true, I'd have a harder time justifying the...

Thank you! I can't wait to see :)

I've done a little bit of searching and can't find much on this effect. The only things I've seen are Criminal by Menny Lindenfield and Serial Biller by Rich Ferguson. I'd like to have a nice one in my repertoire––can anyone recommend a good version?

I get what you mean. Thanks for checking it out!

Solid performance of the Snap Deal. The production at the end was lovely. Where did you pick that up?

I think the biggest misconception about the Tilt is the distance between the card and the deck. Even a small break of around half an inch (or even less) will work perfectly. Also, the smaller the distance, the better the angles. The bluff pass is more covered, but the Tilt might be a bit more...

^That rudeness though. Listening to music can make the art multidimensional, but it is important that the student not let his or her mind stray into the music too much. Allowing the music to flow through them like a vessel can lead to awesome stuff. In response to the OP, I'd suggest Caspian...

I wouldn't necessarily describe it as "cute," but thank you for taking a look at it. If I may ask, why isn't it something you would learn?

Not working for me, but I can't say about others.

This is happening to me as well.

I submitted a different email by accident and got a free spin I shouldn't have - heads up for the verification crew. Sorry about that, my fault for having three emails.
