    Help with Pass

    WARNING: Amateur Magician is posting this thread. If you don't want to watch a video of someone with a pass that is completely non-covered, leave this thread now. OK, so I've been doing the pass for a couple months now, at least 800 a day, and I've been stuck on concealment. So I made a...

    Shifty by Chris Kenner

    I'm interested in buying Shifty by Chris Kenner, unfortunately they don't take PayPal on the Theory11 website, and that's the only way I can pay. Is there any other place I can get Chris Kenner's video of Shifty that accepts PayPal. Thanks.

    Gimmick or No Gimmick?

    Regarding tricks (mainly cards) with gimmicks, I ask a simple question: why? Doesn't it defeat the purpose of sleight of hand? If gimmicks were in every trick, there would be no challenge. A trick would not require sleight of hand. Magic should not require these gimmicks. If someone hands you a...

    Way for a new Magician to Make Money?

    I'm trying to save up to buy the Skywalker levitation. My only trouble is, I don't have a job. I'm 12, and I'm new to magic. I can do several magic tricks, and they impress many people. I want to get a job in magic, because my parents say "Money you make from magic can go to magic."...

    Skywalker Levitation

    I'm interested in this levitation. I found it for $20 on The Enchantment: http://www.theenchantment.com/skywalker.php I have a few questions though: 1. How high can you go? 2. If I perform for people all around me, surrounding me, will they be able to see how it works? 3. Can I do it...

    Levitation

    Sorry if this has been asked before, but I'm looking for a non-angle sensitive levitation. Hopefully not too expensive, I looked at elevator and it's about $200. Anyone know of one and can tell me where to buy it? Thanks.

    Comparison of Double Lifts

    I have gotten many suggestions to learn a new double lift (see my ACR in this section). Some people recommend the strike double lift and some recommend the push off double lift. Which is better for beginners? Thanks for your replies.

    Accomplishment Thread

    It often feels good to tell people about our accomplishments. This thread is for that purpose, so you can share your accomplishments with others. I'll begin: I finally performed a pretty good Marlo Tilt that actually tricked several people. I've been working on this move for weeks.

    Elimination of Excess Movement

    I apologize if this belongs in the card magic section, I figured it might belong here also. Anyway, I was watching over all of my tricks that I recorded today, and I noticed a lot of excess movement in my hands. Cards often move out of place and stick out at weird angles just a little bit...

    Ambitious Card battle

    I'm willing to challenge anyone on a battle on our Ambitious Card Routines. I'm not exactly sure how battling works completely, I've read the FAQ, etc. but I think I know enough to start one. My ACR isn't that great, by the way. But anyway, how about a 7 day deadline, doesn't have to be...
