This is what Shin Lim said on his Flawless vid on youtube in response to someone asking if it was created before him: "hi, it was inspired from the book "By Forces Unseen" however it explained it differently, in that the fingers were closed the entire time and the handling is a little...

That is cool. I'll have to check that out.

In the DG notes, does he grab one of the bands and make one vanish or something? That's a cool idea.

Hey guys, decided to write up a review of the new release from Magical Sleight. Oxygen. The download is separated into two folders. One folder contains the moves taught, and the other contains all the effects taught. Quality: The quality of the download is great. Just as good as T11...

Would love to see a new performance of it! I've always loved this one, seriously good thinking.

Sorry for not replying sooner, I didn't see this. Anyway, I didn't get U turn. It looks great, but I already spent thirty bucks for Five, which has Stairway on it, which is basically the same thing (U turn is just a small variation). I think I prefer the looks of Stairway better anyway...

Size #19. I like to get these bad boys here. You get a ton with it too. Can't go wrong. Cheers, Ryan

Something we have in common :P

Really? I said "You're taking what I said out of context to make a weak argument. When I said I was giving Miika the benefit of the doubt, I was referring to the stooges" but I forgot to say I NEVER said I was giving him the benefit of the doubt when it came to him doing the Berglas Effect...

I've been playing piano for most of my life, I love photography, good music, reading good books, and fashion. I also love magic :)

You're taking what I said out of context to make a weak argument. When I said I was giving Miika the benefit of the doubt, I was referring to the stooges. PLEASE learn to read and not use weak arguments.

No, unfortunately (and I don't mean to sound pretentious, like I know a lot about it, because I only know what I've heard). But I have studied the topic (the berglas effect) and from what I've heard and guessed, there is quite a bit of jazz magic going on (I don't know this obviously, but I've...

I've said it before in this thread, read (thoroughly) ECT. It explains both sleights (although the thought of card Miika does at the beginning is a variation). They not really sleights, but well timed moves, and a few well chosen words (seriously).

Thanks genius. I said he PROBABLY isn't doing the Berglas Effect. PLEASE learn to read. I'm tired up people misreading posts. I'm also giving Miika the benefit of the doubt, as I know a lot of the stuff he does is real, and takes a lot of practice in the real world.

Which is why I said it's a lot of jazz magic.

Thanks for the response, I'll keep that in mind. Cheers

The Berglas Effect (if I'm not mistaken) is David Berglas's ACAAN. Sure there are other ACAANs out there, but Berglas's is the supposed "holy grail" of ACAANs, and I'm pretty sure it is called the Berglas Effect. I've never heard anyone use "The Berglas Effect" as interchangeable with "ACAAN"...

Really, I guess I'll start there as I have that book. I just wasn't sure if it would be the best method, as the push-off second might have been perfected even more after the book was printed (since it's a fairly popular move). I still might get the Jason England download as a help for the...

Haha, wow, if you split up what I said it does :) What I mean, is that David Berglas has worked on, and honed his Berglas Effect of many many years. I doubt Miika could do the same effect seeing how young he is. I doubt most magicians could do the Berglas Effect like David Berglas. I also...

Hey guys, I've always wanted to learn the second deal (push-off), but I finally want to actually pursue that, and work on one. So my question is this, what would be a good source for learning the second deal? Cheers, Ryan
