    G.O.A.T. Change/3C Change

    Ok, to clear this up: The GOAT Change is different from the Carolina Click Change. The GOAT Change is the Buck's change, which should be released in their upcoming DVD, andthensome. The Carolina Click Change is a different change created by nfpalmer, which looks similar but has a different...

    Invent a trick or variation?

    I would consider giving it a completely different name - but regardless, I'd always credit the original trick.

    What is valuable to you?

    Magic-related? Hmm. My experience as an actor in performance and my theatrical roots I suppose.

    What would Dai do?

    INTERACT WITH YOUR AUDIENCE. Probably the most neglected and weakest aspect of the majority of magicians' performances.

    White Centurions Window - Unfair?

    Put it this way. a) Life isn't fair. b) It would be far too easy for people to "hog" supplies. Honestly - you'd have the same problem as now.

    Arrco Playing Cards

    Compared to normal Bikes, they're thinner, feel a little more plasticky, and more flexible. But yeah, the review forum usually has reviews of most popular/common products..

    New Trick?

    We'll take your word that there's no stooge - there's not point in you lying about that anyway. But I do understand the difficulty in shooting something live though. Look forward to it

    Hopefully TOOC comes out soon...

    Amen. Sadly, the knowledge of magic products seems to more and more be defined by the products sold by a decreasing group of mainstream, popular companies.

    The Queens

    Whilst I disagree with Jack's argument - the concept that you must be more talented than someone else to criticise them is rather silly. I liked the production, I didn't like the sleights, they definitely could be much smoother. The very first placement of the cards back on the deck was...

    Everyday cards

    I don't buy the trick deck argument.. It's all in the hands.

    Braue Reversal

    Arthur Buckley has two methods of reversing cards in his book Card Control.

    Which Tricks

    No, he definitely shouldn't - but that's probably not gonna help now. 1. Angle Zero - Yes. Be creative with where you put it. 2. ACR with "Shifty" - Depends how big the crowd is. If they're small enough to surround you in a layer one person deep, go for it. Otherwise the effect of Shifty is...

    The Pink x

    lol. Yeah I think it's a great idea! From a practical point of view though - I can't stress enough for you to make sure that it's good material, well researched, well developed, etc. - this is not a criticism but an encouragement. I'd definitely like to see it do well for the sake of cancer...

    Looking for awesome tricks...

    I'm going to keep posting this in every single thread of this type I find. I posted this before, and it's always the same. Here's an idea. Look for them yourself, find the ones that work for yourself, and make them "hard hitting"! In all honestly, looking for the shortcut by asking for "best...

    Looking for some good books.

    Derek Dingle's book has been criticised for being created as magician foolers. No judgment, I just thought it was worth mentioning. I have also heard it said that Jennings '67 is far better than The Classic Magic of Larry Jennings. As far as other suggestions go.. Brass Knuckles Inner Card...

    Haha. Nice find Steve.

    Card Magic and Restaurants

    David Stone's series of DVDs. Invaluable theory as well as effects. Then get his book for the theory as well.

    Christmas List (Currently Pending)

    First off - you know it's spelled harbinger right? ^.^ Don't take this as a criticism per se, but it seems as though you may be trying to get into it again too much. By this I mean that your list basically consists of the most recent, most popular, most advertised, most mainstream effects you...

    Are any of these good?

    If you're between intermediate and advanced as you say, Born to Perform may be too easy for you. If you're actually at that level, I'd recommend looking at Maximum Entertainment and Five Points of Magic. Knowing a lot of tricks or sleights doesn't determine your skill level, and magic is far...
