By the way.. Are there any other people from these forums that are from Sydney? Or at least that I should know of?

Thanks for the links. I'm browsing as I'm writing :) Will be sure to go there when I arrive. Thats quite expensive compared to what I can get bikes for in Denmark.. I think I'm gonna bring a brick just in case :P And yeah :D Every bit of info helps. Thanks :) I'm pretty sure I will :) I'm...

I live in Denmark :) So neither. My copy of the book was number 51 :)

Hey guys - Siggy here :P Calling out to all of Sydney. I am so lucky that I'm moving to Sydney in about half a month. I'm wondering how good the "magic-facilities" are in Sydney? Are there any magic shops, magic clubs, etc.? In Denmark where I come from - they are not very easy to...

As one of the first 100 I got Daniel Madison's INSIDE today in the mail. As all of the other 100 I also got a signed special card with the book. Mine was a white centurion Ace of Clubs. I'm curious, and I thought it would be fun to know what some of you (first 100;)) guys recieved...

I have to second that. Didn't spark any interest in me. The whole thing was very well choreographed, but it didn't seem mystical in any way. It is not real magic if your are not interacting with the audience. As a show, it was alright, but as magic it let me down.

I LOVE MAGIC :p

I understand what you are thinking, but I believe something is wrong with this kind of thinking. I think the problem of making patter like this, is that we stop showing magic, but instead showing the audience incredible sleights. If that is what we want, well, I guess that's the patter to go...

"ehm... would you go to bed with me?"

I of course can't say, that he isn't using stooges, but this effect is possible in real life. I admit, it requires an enormous amount of confidence to pull off a stunt like this, and even so, it will probably only work on a few, highly suggestible types. If you pay attention to what he is...

Hi :) I got it down after about 5 solid hours of practicing. Not perfect, but performable :) And what I did, was performing it to one guy in a room with about 8 people or so, and he freaked out, so the others of course heard that, and kept asking, "what did he do?". So I told him that he...

Heh :) Nice one guys :P dumb as I am, I actually didn't see all the flaming coming up here :p but I see it would be a natural consequence of me posting this here :p - so okay.. hehe.. I believe that in a situation like this, the irony of such comments is very clear (and expected :p), but to...

Sorry to bring this up guys, but I think, that the few of you who posts a comment on a video, such as, "Ive just lost 3:44 minutes of my life!", or, "*someone* just stole two minutes of my life!", should really just stop saying that. With the imminent danger of sounding incredibly stupid, I...

description: The trick that have brought me the greatest reactions so far Just today, I brought my homemade marked deck of bikes to school. I wanted to show my "mean skills in card location" :P I told her to pick any card she liked, and stick half way in the deck, so that I could really see...

praetoritevong, I voted for you. I think your trick would have a stronger effect on a spectator, if the patter and misdirection would be cranked up a notch. The overall effect was the one I voted for :) Finally a vote not going to magicman ;P Keep it coming Vong

What I found on the sound problem was that If you move your hands slowly.. sounds weird and seems like it will flash all over the place, but when combined with the upwards movement of the deck, just like Kenner does it, it is completely unnoticeable. Hope it helped :) SimSiggaard

'Nuff said.

I think, that if you are interested in a card-rising-to-the-top effect, then Chris Kenners "Shifty" is really good. It is probably just as visual as fallen, when done properly, and the angles are much better - your are covered like 60% around.. Just my opinion :) SimSiggaard

There's just something about all spades I think. But my personal favorites are the three court cards in that suit - still leaning more towards the Jack of spades, then any of the other. Is anybody interested in trying to explain why your favorite card is your favorite? :P SimSiggaard
