Well, graduated high school today and soon to go off in the navy. So here is to anybody else graduating this year. '09

Nestorizer by Nestor Hato Price around $40 First Impressions 3/10 I was highly unimpressed when I looked at it and thought I had wasted my money. I was thinking back to other reviews and people I had talked to about it and they had all loved it so I thought I would give it a shot...

I've been reading through a few of the threads on the forum topics and I have to say that there is a bunch of uselessness on here. I'm sure many people are aware of what I am talking about, and I really don't want to bust on any fun people may be having. I don't expect or would want people to...

I went to New Orleans today for a basketball game with the Hornets and Suns and I had plenty of time to kill. I was with my parents since they bought the tickets and when we were in the aquarium I decided to head in the giftshop and see any cards they may have, and their cards were smaller but...

This is purely opinionated discussion. You look at many of the effects now and so many of them are just new methods to old concepts in magic, Justin Miller's Captured, Sandwhich effects from Dan and Dave's Dvds, and so on. So what is your take on the rehashing of concepts and do you purchase...

Entourage 20.00 USD I started looking for cheap effects just to try some out and see where they went and start looking for little things here and there. SO, I finally found a pretty neat trick and the effect sounded really good although the presentation of it in the beginning was weak imo...

Well, I finally have had some time to work on the Tarantula and get some live performances and really dwell on some of the problems. You may be surprised at the end of this review. First Thoughts 7/10 I first looked at the box and then lifted it up and found it quite lite, and although I never...

I mean this in no arrogant way or trying to show overconfidence. When I do magic to some people they seem annoyed, they enjoy it for a second then seem to be annoyed they can't figure it out or by the skill. Some people have admitted they are ticked off by the skill or something like that. So...

Everytime I perform I get the jitters and it doesn't seem like I'm nervous but my pits sweat and my knee starts to shake a bit and its very uncomfortable. Maybe from adrenaline or something similar but I was wondering if anybody else has this.

Well I started the one poll about the Buck twins and got some good responses and a good number of votes. So I thought about making one more poll before the weekend was out. There's no wrong answer and even if it is the Masked Magician then it's true that inspiration can come from the worst of...

I borrowed the Trilogy from a friend of mine and was very excited because I have been trying to learn impromptu card tricks rather than gimmicked ones like Alpha Deck or election, anything along those lines. Anyways, even as I stare at the Bucks flawless card work I have this feeling that these...

Entity from mjmmagic.com Entity is a cool little gimmick I picked up when it was released and have played around it with it and performed it for a few people. If you watch the video at mjmmagic then you will most likely understand what the gimmick is but that should not deter you. It is well...

Magic is and has been an obsession of mine for a good time now. I have been doing magic to alot of people lately, around work, school, neighborhood. Probably increased my performances by about 300% total if I had to guess, but the problem is that people are treating it more and more like a trick...

I recently watched the Inspiration video in the media section. I was really thinking about how difficult it really is to cope with autism or any other disability. Adam really showed some good showmanship and some nice skill with his stage magic. So I wanted to know what everybody's...

This is not a "What should I buy?" thread but a much easier question that relates to what you like. What is your strongest effect that gets the craziest reactions and the most "How the insert word did you just do that?" This question may help a few people look at some effects that may be a...

ESP Cards by Vernet Not sure if anybody uses these but I love them and I always pick up new ones trying to find out which ones best suit me and these are definitely up in the top three. So if anybody is interested here's a quick review and I got them from mjmmagic.com Cards 9/10 The...

I have been doing mentalism for about 3 years now and the hardest part of doing it is making it come to life, an organic trick of the mind that is believable. I always work on presentation and work on different ways to present and develop the effects. I usually get great reactions from...

Hey everybody, I am new here to Theory11 and would just like to give a shout out to everybody. I've been apart of some other forums like E among others. Quick bio on me, Magic for 5 years, 3 of those into mentalism, and 8 months into hypnosis. I do mainly mentalism along with a few impromtu...
