Raise Rise

"This is my performance of Ray Kosby's extremely visual effect - Raise Rise. A special thanks to Eric Jones for pointing out a few things about the effect to me, and to Mihai (Blunk) for the song choice."

holy crap, when your into card magic after a while you can tell how poeple do most of their stuff and you can replicate it, but crap i can't figure it out!?!? That was Awesome 5/5

Well at least 2 rises? lol

Like I said earlier [EDITED - Speculation of Method / Technique] maybe a different angle of presentation from the left side would hide the majority of the movement? Also once you get better, try to do more than one rise, it looks at least 10x trippier even if you just do two rises. GIven another few months of steady practice it'll look awesome....

I actually prefer less rises because it appears that the card is jumping further up; thus making the effect more visual.

For the first time in along time I can truly say I'm fooled...badly. Congrats!

You need to practice making it a bit more invisible if you know what I mean....

I'm not completely sure, but I think I know what Darian is talkin about. Still a great trick any way.
