Nice trick, it looked really clean. My only recommendation would be to use the 2 black aces for the first production instead of the jokers, this way you could end with all 4 aces which I think would be a nice ending.

I find using a double backed card makes a great start to an ambitious card routine. Place the selection face up on top of the double backed card, turn them face down with a double lift, place the double backer in the centre and show that the selection is back on top.

I do not own any other Daniel Madison products so I don't know if Half Vanish is published anywhere else, although you could look through the contents of his notes on his site. I would say they don't require large hands at all, only one of those effects uses a palm but the routine is...

Dangerous - Volume One Introduction - As i've only had this DVD for a day this obviously won't be the most indepth review as I have not used any of these effects myself but if you are wondering if the DVD lives up to the hype, do the effects seem to be practical or is it worth the money then...

I'm starting to feel this way as well, his effects are good but he just takes himself way too seriously. He acts like he's 'underground' then releases his stuff on one of the biggest magic sites.

It's fairly easy to just pull up the card and get a break even without pushing it to the side. If you're having trouble with this then you could riffle off a card with your left hand using a pinky count then put your finger in the gap to get the break. Also, it's an Erdnase break not erdenase.

A purist is somebody who only uses sleight of hand to accomplish effects. They don't use gimmicks or duplicates etc.

It probably is, but a mistake in a forum post isn't the same as having multiple errors in a video of an effect you are promoting. If I was making a preview of a trick I would carefully check every aspect of it if I really cared about it and wanted people to take it seriously. If I was...

The editing was completely over the top and unnecessary, also there were several spelling mistakes which just looks really unprofessional. You put 'Any card is choosen', it should be 'chosen'. Also, 'The spectator puts there hand on the card', it should be 'their'. After that you put 'Than...

I'm quite sure it doesn't, if you use the exact finger positioning taught i've found that the card flips over so fast it is invisible even from the side. If you watch the over the shoulder view of the explanation you can clearly see that the change happens much faster than in the performance...

I don't think they perform the Superfilp in the same way they teach it, i've found that if you do it exactly how they teach it then it is nearly invisible even without the dribble. However, if you try and emulate the performance of it then it happens much slower and the dribble is needed to...

I don't really agree with this, using Superflip instead of the Duck change makes Tivo flow a lot better in my opinion. Also, it is very difficult to see what is actually happening in the Superflip because of the misdirection of dribbling the cards. If you try it in front of an audience I think...

It's a fairly good performance but there's a few areas that need a bit of work. You perform all the sleights quite well and i'm quite sure your spectators wouldn't see them however I think you could perform it a lot smoother. A couple of the vanishes seem slightly awkward, most notably the first...

No it would not be ok, revealing tricks from the Trilogy is obviously completely different to revealing a very old commonly used sleight. Revealing Trilogy tricks means that Dan and Dave will lose money, revealing the bluff pass doesn't make any difference to anyone as the creator of it is...

I've just learnt the effect 'Even more four on the floor' from Full Metal Jacket and at the end of the effect it is possible that you may have to use a magicians force to get the spectator to pick the card you want them to. This is something i've never been very comfortable with, especially...
