    Plastic cards?

    A few weeks ago, my friends bought me a plastic deck for my birthday. I tried flourishing with them and these cards cant fan well. I dislike how flimsy these cards are too. But flourishing underwater? I guess I'll have to try that out.

    What should I buy?

    Are you into card magic/cardistry? Dangerous and the Trilogy are both great choices if you want to learn card magic and cardistry.

    IMO, thin card stock works for everything.

    Advice on furthering my card magic

    @ FOO:L Hmm, I'm only free during weekends. My CCA eats up mondays,wednesday and fridays. I've been to the SMC forums but I don't have an account there because I don't have a paid email account.

    Advice on furthering my card magic

    Hmm, I would recommend the Crash Course series if it wasn't for Card College. If you have the cash for the Card College series, you should get it. The Card College series is expensive but it is something worth investing in if you are serious about card magic. I go to The Magic Hall and The...

    Advice on furthering my card magic

    Hmm, I would recommend the trilogy if you have the cash. IMO, it's much easier to learn flourishes by watching instead of reading. I suggest that you read some reviews of custom cards before you buy them. P.S. (To FOO:L and thanatos), which shops do y'all go to?

    Coolest Happenings...

    Hmm, the coolest thing so far happened while I was practicing 4sybil. I flicked the first ace out and it flew like a boomerang and fell back onto the deck without my hands moving. I'm quite such many people had this experience before but it's my 2nd or 3rd month into flourishing so it was quite...

    Thoughts on Criss Angel

    As DannyT said, not all Chris' tricks are fake/stooge. However, there are some tricks that are too extreme, and even layman will know that it is fake. For example, walking on water, levitating above the luxor hotel in vegas.

    Thoughts on Criss Angel

    Joel Paschall said,"The job of the artist is to convince the world of his lie. What he creates isn't real but it is ok to enjoy it for what it is." Criss Angel entertained me too and many viewers at home. Even though I know that some of his tricks might be camera tricks, paid audiences etc. I...
