Hey man, As far as the overhead spring goes, a foot looks pretty impressive already! It pretty much depends on how big you want it to be. If you want it to be bigger, keep practicing - it can be bigger. Mine's about a foot at the moment also. But as it is, from my experience, yeah, it's quite...

Daren's is quite amazing.

It's not big enough for the typical audience of a street busking show like his. Flaming torches require a circular stage diameter 15-20 metres. He'd get about 5% of the audience seeing the effect, if he's lucky.

Yeah, it's basically just mastering a flourish man, as far as speed goes, just keep at it. I don't particularly like 4Sybil, I think four ace productions like that are impractical as a flourish and only useful for camera, first effect or very distracted audiences. But Aces as itself is a nice...

Yeahhh... Honestly, it's made out of cardboard, I dunno. What do you suggest? If your box is ruined after a week, you just need to take care of it better... I've had Studs for a month and the corners are only slightly frayed and only on the front...

Wow. Another Sydney magician... Let me know when you perform, I live in the City. Try looking for the fibre optics DVD for rope routines. Other stuff... Cups and Balls, maybe, silks, linking rings... You can try a pickpocketing demonstration if you can pull it off (and study it for ages)...

I lol'd @ Smoothini's one handed fan in his MySpace pic...

..No, not really? Did you read the whole thread? Made perfect sense to me..

Yes, yes you can. I think you missed the point of Squ!rrel's post. The official definition of professional and amateur is not based on skill, as in your example. Amateur behaviour can refer as an adjective, as Brad pointed out above. However. According to our definition of professional vs...

Well yeah pretty much the general consensus - there's no consensus! There's no universally accepted "Best" playing cards. There are so many different types ranging from thick to thin, and it all depends on what you prefer. So just buy one or two of the ones you want to try out, have a look at...

Brad, Yeah, I do see where you're coming from re: my theory and question. Of course the former was purely for argument's sake, but your reasoning behind asking is logical. Lots of reasons people can be scared to ask, usually due to themselves. But I agree, one should ask.

It's a nice idea, and I'm sure you did come up with it independently, but I have to warn you it probably isn't an exclusively original idea by you. It's an interesting intro to ACR, only thing is, it kinda defeats the purpose of signing for the rest of the ACR if you do the first one without...

Depends what you mean by different - how different, specifically. Vodkas have different face designs for one.

Hmm. In terms of storyline, a detective card isn't uncommon, but yeah it works I guess. I dunno if I'd buy it, but jt's right about motivation, you've lost the evidence card in the deck for the sake of finding evidence? I can see how it's linked but it's a little dodgy at the moment. Effect...

Well, pretty much what you said mate. Just be warned, D&D usually take longer than T11 or E do since it's just them, but they'll get to you sooner or later (a week is usually max).

My equivalent of Finals at the end of 12th Grade.

When we say "figured" it, we generally mean we worked out how to do the move, usually as a boast and a sidenote to hint to everyone who reads it how awesome we are for figuring it out. Often, we also only figure out the basic mechanics though and fail to recognise the subtleties of the move or...

LOL. There wasn't a single punctuation mark in that entire thing!

Whereabouts in Sydney are you mate? We've got a group of magicians/flourishers who meet up regularly (usually once a fortnight, there's a month gap at the moment due to HSC and Uni exams). PM if you want, I'll give you some details (and we can get that Revolution sorted in person too :P).

You know he's performing today/has performed today :P
