And while you're at it, re-order Hundred Dollar miracles, get David Forrets CTW and get Cover Magic as Im buying that too in a couple of weeks, inevitably -- and the trickery

ID stop it, your a bad influence on me.

Well to be fair I was already looking at trickery DVD, it looks good and a lot of impromptu material on it.

Oh and I already have Covert, I'd certainly reccommend it, as there are a few belters on it.

Then could I recommend a Kevlar reel pen?

Perhaps Devils Picture book.. which came this morning by the way!! Wahoo.. kept quiet about that one!! watched the first 10 minutes or so.. you should get this?

You really need to spend more.. if you have credit on your card then its not being used properly!!

Aye dead on I have a fair bit of credit on my credit card but unfortunately I need to save it for my summer holidays.

The way you have me spending ID I'll be going for a beach day trip with a blow up boat. Rather than a cruise.

whats wrong with that?? Think of all the magic you will have at your disposal !! You'll be crusing for much longer than a 2 week holiday!!

just kidding, Ive actually decided to kick CUPS to the curb.. I dont know how long that will last though.. I've been 'sober' for two days. 2wo faced was my last order.

Mmmmmm... I fell tempted... One question: what do you guys think about a n00b buying 2wo faced or any other gaff/trick? I'm still practicing sleights and routines and although I'm progressing I can't say I dare performing quite yet. Will I be able to get anything out of buying these things? I am also thinking about buying a svengali deck. Sorry for the OT.

Some of the effects require sleights, but there is nothing on there that's really hard. Some of them are very easy and require no sleights whatsoever.
You won't regret it....

Great! Thanks Lord Freddie! I don't have any problems with sleights. It's just that if I take up on 2wo faced, svengali deck or marked decks, I feel I'm cheating my RRTCM Sounds strange doesn't it? I really really want to master the sleights and routines and don't want to buy one-pay wonders. But this one sounds different. I'll think some more about it.

hehe!

With all due respect, and 50/50 is a great effect, it's also in Mark Wilson's book though the handling at the start of the effect (selection of the cards) is different on 2WO Faced....

This DVD is not cheating as a lot of the effects do require skill.
Some are easier than others but the harder ones will call upon the skills you learnt in RRTCM.
It's a great DVD, you won't regret buying it.

OK. Made my mind up. Getting it! Thanks!

Got this last week, and I can only echo other sentiments here; it really is SUPERB

Made up my first effect from this over the weekend, and went with 'Superfly', which is a card prediction that seemingly goes wrong, but ends with 3 massive kickers...all one-after-another

In all fairness, if Superfly had been marketed as a stand-alone effect, you'd easily be looking at a price tag of between £12 - £15 for this effect alone!

I like this amazingly-visual effect so much that I've made it into a dedicated packet that I'm ready to switch-it at any point.

Next up, I'm going for 'Quantum Leap'

hey rob - really chuffed you are digging 2WO FACED!

and SUPERFLY is deffo my favourite effect too.... it just makes me laugh... hehe!

Thanks Owen - very nice to see a producer stand so solidly behind his work, and touch-base with his customers

Surperfly didn't make my audience laugh over the weekend, though....it made them REEL, SWEAR and declare me to be some kind of twisted voodoo devil-boy

I'm suspecting that Quantum Leap will have a similar effect

Thanks, Owen for all the hard work you put in to produce such amazing DVD's!

2wo faced was the first product i got from BBM, gotto say i loveit and having it come with gaffs does save lots of trouble and money.

just a reminder to those who didn't read all the posting, remember to check out the credits for the bonus!
