S.W Elevator my performance

DLeerium · Jun 5, 2008

This effect (elevator card) has always appealed to me, ever since I saw Jeff Teo, perform it, and Chris Kenner perform shifty.

I've been doing this effect for a while now and i would like some feedback from my fellow T11 members.

Feel free to add constructive criticism and any ways to improve.
p.s: I know my angles aren't so great.

I like the riffling down the side thing. I'm gonna do that from now on.

Really Smooth! You fooled me at the end

5/5

Yup. fooled me at the end too

Second time you do the move, your right hand moves a little bit too much, but i loved it.. 5/5

oo. Nice. I didnt see anything. Good.

Good performance. Also, I know that this is your way of doing it, but it looks a lot better when you slowly shake the deck, instead of jerking it up.

Just as a note, SW Elevator is found in Chris Kenner's Totally Out of Control, and Shigeo Futagawa's version is just called Elevator.

I like it a lot. The riffling down the side was a very nice subtlety. And the end completely fooled me... didn't see that coming. Good job!

Another reason to make me want to get Totally Out of Control. I didn't catch a thing. 5*

You won't find this handling in TOOC just as a warning. This is Shigeo Futugawa's handling which can be found in his lecture notes.

Woah, sorry I didn't watch it to the end. That was great! Really fooled me. I did a double take.

Will I need to have TOOC to understand Shiego Futugawa's version?

From my understanding, no as the methodology is completely different.

Yeah, the two effects are completely different. In my opinion Shigeo's Elevator is much easier than SW Elevator.
