Show Off with Cards (DVD)

EugeneSoh · Dec 31, 2007

I have a few questions about this DVD...
Is it tought by Brian Tudor?
Is it a well taught DVD (like well explained, not weather the moves are hard)?
Are the moves taught with words? Without words? On-screen text?
Is it well worth my money?

Here's visual

1. No...Rob Stiff

2. I belive there is wrong fingering o some moves, but hey, works for me!

3. Moves are taught with words and a deck of cards, then clear blocks. No on screen text.

4. I got mine for 10 bucks at my local shop and it was worth it. If i paid 30, i think i would be happy...

I was also wondering about it. It looked like it tought a lot of stuff, but i read that he went over each move like 3 times relitively quickly and went right onto the next move. but thats what rewind is for.

I don't have it but wanted it too at first but so many people said that things are taught incorrectly, and that your flourish foundation will be incorrect, and that's not good fior future flourishing, but you know what ask soemone who has it (like I did)

I read some reviews on other websites that said the teaching on this DVD was terrible.

But I guess it's all about personal preference. Maybe more experienced flourishers will get it easier than ones that are just beginning I suppose?

You can learn one handed revolution, you can learn everything else on the dvd.

In short, it is the worst DVD I own. I've never been more disappointed with any magic product ever.

I dont think it is so bad...especialy if it is your first or second flourish DVD. He gos over it enough times to learn well and if you cant you are a little slow. He even goes over it in clear blacks after 3 times!

How do you get the quotes and stuff at the bottom of your posts?

You must click "Menu" then "Edit signature".

As for the DVD, if this is your first flourishing DVD, you will get a terrible foundation of tricks. You will then pick up a De'vo or Dan and Dave DVD and simply laugh at Show Off With Cards.

It is a Magic Makers Inc. product, that should be a turnoff to any magician/flourisher.

The dvd is not worth 30 dollars. It cedits and teaches wrong moves. The finger placements are different and can cause trouble for flourishers in the future. For example: It tells you to do a chalier cut with your middle finger. Don't buy this dvd.
