I often use a sandwich similar to subway followed by by the vanish in the Biddle trick. I then use the Asher twist and finally the big surprise at the end of the Biddle Trick. Weeeeeell...I haven't actually done this yet but I'm practicing it up. My character? I don't do magic tricks, but I...

Hmm, I never thought about this, I always just assumed that everyone used a full deck. Damnabbit, there goes all my beliefs out the window...

The best thing since sliced me!

Triple Shuffle is an advanced method for shuffling a deck of cards that allows you to perform three separate bridges within the course of a single shuffle. Fluid, fast, and yet understated - this is a flourish that doesn't call too much attention to itself and can be an elegant sleight that...

Funnily enough, my best reputation maker is as simple as forcing a card and then telling them the card they picked. No big reveals, no fancy flourishes, just a force. I love it because it gives me a chance to use as much acting as possible. And after I've done this a few times to build the...

I swear by this book. It's pure gold. EDIT:Oh and I don't really mind what we get as long as it isn't all flourishing...

Hey Adjones, I must say a big congrats (with a cherry on top) for writing this review. it is what I would call 'rather thorough'. Seriously, I dunno how you managed it. I officially give this review 10/10. If only I hadn't just spent all my money... I just realised that I haven't touched a deck...

No bike rider's?

I liked em both but I voted for...ah...that would be telling XD

Good point but this thread is about street magic rather than friend and family magic... or I might have lost track a little bit? Btw, I agree with you, I'm all for street magic with a camera. I'm not trying to disagree with you in the slightest.

I don't have a problem with 'on the street' filming, I think it's good for your performance. I don't do it very often but I do do it occasionally. Usually, though, I just do it at home to save going up town. Oh and it rains alot in Cumbria...

I'm a pretty nooby flourisher but I sat down and learned some of them (including the Jackson 5!). Most of them aren't toooooo hard but like alot of flourishes, will take alot of practice to smooth them out.

Yeah, Wayne talks about the history of the moving pips gimmick a little on the Distortion DVD.

Curse you Zach, you will suffer!
