Card Control Books/DVDs

[r29]

Hi i'm wodnering if u guys and offer some good books or dvd on card control
currently i only own the Royal road to card magic and eluusionist ninja 1 dvd
i'm also getting bored of juss buying single tricks and finding gimmick tricks boring

personally if you want the best card control (the only thing better would to be to make their card invisible and hold it in your hand lol) then you need to get the roadrunner cull by kostya

its like the perfect dvd dedicated to culling (i have it and its awsome)

Edit- heres a link http://www.kostyamagic.com/KostyaMagic/Welcome.html

You only need 1-3 card controls in your disposal. Having a variety is good, but I find it pointless to know a 1000 card controls with little or barely practiced effort than having 3 which you can do them flawlessly.

There are a couple of good ones here: http://store.doverpublications.com/by-subject-magic--legerdemain.html - Expert Card Technique is great!

Anything by Dai Vernon or Jean Hugard - These guys are old school and some of the stuff is a little tough to grasp but man is it useful to build with. If you master this you can do anything. They are pure sleight of hand too which is what I like best about them. There is always Expert at the Card Table too.

You might want to check out Sleightly Magical by Dan and Dave. I've been having a lot of fun with their PDFs.

Cheers!

I don't have it but there's a DVD called "Control Freak" by Oliver Macia...

Control Freak is a great dvd....it teaches many variations of the wow control (dribble control).... and other moves

anyone knows a dvd that teaches "cascade control" among other moves?.. I know it is in card finesse vol 2 but i would prefer a video format...thanks

I believe you can find it in a DVD called Que Raro by Dani DaOrtiz and Christian Engblom

the Cascade control in Que Raro! and Card Finesse 2 are slightly different.
Card Finesse has the original one.

Ian Kendall has a video called "Bastard Hard Moves Made Easy" and it teaches the Cascade Control.
