    New Trick from theory11.com?

    When the Bucks mentioned it, they said it would be sold on their site, but made no mention to it being sold here, so I dunno :)

    Tornado cut help

    The packet kind of makes a little spot for itself to spin in if you practice enough, it's not one of those things you can just nail right away.

    Brown Wynns not good for XCM?

    I have only tested the Brown Wynns thus far, but have found them great for cuts because of their general clumping behavior. While they may not Thumb Fan for very long, they LePaul Spread (Which I adore) fine which is what I mostly do. I love fanning the much as the next person, for that I buy $2...

    Brown Wynns not good for XCM?

    Red and Blue Wynns are available for less than I can get TH9's (Stupid Australia) and I prefer the simple back design over that which I've grown used to. Since I rarely fan, I have no problem with clumping and it actually makes doing most cuts easier because the cards hold together better. A...

    Click Bending

    This happened to me when I left my cards in the window sill in direct sunlight and all the moisture must have evapourated from the deck and that's what made it really stiff and caused a "click" when I was using them. Playing with them for a bit broke them in, I just avoid direct sunlight from...

    Finger Exercises?

    Both XB and The Trilogy have some great finger excerises taught on them as has been mentioned, that will increase both finger strength and dexterity. I personally don't bother with them that much except if my hands are a little stiff or cold, you're usually better off just practicing more, your...

    Something interesting about the Brown Wynn Decks

    If I paid $50 for this deck, would I be annoyed about rarity? Probably. For the $5 (An expensive, but still reasonable price for a deck of good cards) I couldn't care less about how rare they are. Do you really expect that something would be $5 if it was THAT rare? Less crying, more playing with...

    Brown Wynns not good for XCM?

    The more I use the Brown Wynns, the more I love them. I've heard the Red and Blue are better so I can't wait :)

    Card Manipulation?

    Check out Jeff McBrides Art of Card Manipulation series, it is exactly what you are looking for. Edit: Here is a link to check out, it's Volume 1 of 3: http://decknique.net/content/7.html

    Stud Playing Cards

    That's where I found them for $6 a pack ($59.50 for 12 Decks + $12.50 Shipping), kind of expensive for my tastes.

    Stud Playing Cards

    I want to try these out, but even if I buy a brick they are $6 a deck including postage, which is kind of high for cards I've never tried before.

    Blue Wynns Review

    I actually saw a deck on eBay that was actually purple. I'm not sure if they just tweaked a blue photo to look like that, but it was a very deep purple, odd :(

    The Leno Cut: 8 or 9 packets?

    It can be nine if you split the chin packet with your chin rather than just liifting it up :P I did that when learning because I'm an idiot :P

    Something interesting about the Brown Wynn Decks

    If they aren't being produced, they are rare. Every deck that opens, removes permenantly that deck from the card pool. Even if there is 500,000,000 of them, which doesn't seem rare, eventually they will all be gone. Heck one day 808 Rider Backs will probably be rare, rare is a very subjective...

    Ahhh - 144 Wynn Decks!

    I was going to buy from kardwell too, but spending $100 on shipping just sounded expensive, plus they raised the prices so I didn't bother. I got 60 off eBay with only $40 shipping, which works out about the same if I were to order 144 decks worth, but I already got 24 from Dan and Dave. As...

    Derren Brown Trick of the Mind

    Not really, but he does explain a lot of techniques he uses and such. The book is a very enjoyable read, but if you are using it primarily because you think it will make you a mind reader, you will be dissapointed.

    Blue Wynns Review

    Have you ever seen a video of Jordan Lappings? He has more of those jumbo boxes that bricks of Bicycles come in than I have normal decks of cards, it's nuts :P
