Work on your DMB Spread Control... a lot. It's supposed to be a smooth, fluid motion. Also, try doing it with more cards in the spread. By the way, it's Hofzinser; not Hofzinger. Don't take the above the wrong way, Matt

I figured I might as well enter something... I like performing my original material. I didn't have time to edit it because of time restrictions. http://vimeo.com/3219964 Credits to Ernest Earick and Doug McKenzie.

What's your favorite magic-related prank? If you were stranded on an island with nothing but three magic books, which would they be? What do you do when you start reading a new magic book, and it is very 'dry'? Do you stop reading it? Do you make yourself finish it?

I was taught by Ricky, at IBM/SAM, last summer.

I think my performance is quite good and yet I didn't do anything to 'help' the angles. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=86STeaQvXNc&fmt=18

Keep your left thumb along the left edge of the deck.

Why were you thinking "omg no please no!!!"? lol -Matt

It can be done however you want to do it.

So much better than what? Dave doing the change? My handling is no different than his. If you just mean in general, that means a lot, especially from you. Thanks, -Matt

I don't know too much about the CCC change. But the method is completely different from what I remember.

No, I didn't figure it out independently. And honestly, if you're trying to learn from a performance, you might as well shoot your hands off. It's unethical, and for the most part, you'll develop a bad habit. Thanks everyone for the kind words!

I think of it this way... If you could do real magic, would you snap and the card would change? Or would you rub your hand back and forth and the card would change? -Matt

As good as any other change I've seen. There aren't really any bad angles...:)

Well, then let me put it this way. I'll be dead serious this time. It's a *****!

It's around a 7 out of 10.

Seriously?
