Outjogged Herman Shift

[penguincdude]

I'm thinking of getting the Outjogged Herman Shift but I have a few questions. First, I wanna make sure that this isn't just a pass. If so please just PM me so to not ruin this trick. Also, can it be done when your hands are being burned.

Thanks,
Charlie

Well, the outjogged hermann is pretty much a variation of the hermann pass. So yes it is a pass. When done well, yes your hands can be watched. But as per any pass, misdirection is recommended.

It is a pass, and you get a trick in which you can use it... It is by far the most used pass, after the classic pass, in my repertoire... And it is more invisible than the classic pass, when done well, and you can do it while they burn your hands... I do it that way all the time, because of the nature of the trick that I use it in...

Hope that helps

Why do you care if it's a pass? It's obviously deceptive as you were unable to tell what's happening. What's the chance of a spectator working out what you're doing?When done properly this pass is burnable,

I would not get it, sure its a cool move but there are allot of better controls to use in a real world performance then this one.

Wow, I've never heard that said of it before. I disagree completely, but would be interested in your reasoning for saying that.

It's taught on the 1 on 1 and also in Aaron Fishers book. I'd say get the book and learn it from there because you're not only learning a sleight but a ton of other effects and sleights and some pretty good advice on magic.

I actually prefer the Herman Shift to the classic pass (perhaps because I'm never happy enough with my classic pass to use it in performance). Thus, I'd suggest it--it's just great; I love it.
