I'm pretty sure they're both the same thing. I have Generation EXtreme. I would probly advise people against buying this to learn from, as it is SO advanced. I'll leave you with a quote from Pengay Magic...

Once you master it, your spectators may notice only one tenth of what they're supposed to see... and only one one-hundredth of what is actually happening. That's no way to live... pick up a svengali deck and be happy.


I'd have to agree! It is amazing to watch him work, though..

Its actually not to hard he's just an awful teacher. In theory generation extreme is a more up to date version of "X". With an "improved" tudor shuffle.

LOL!

Point taken. I haven't been practicing any of Show off I thought I'd learn it post exams.

Show off is solid by the look of it and the spring change is quite difficult, but the rest isn't to bad.

I'm sure it would be easier with a better teacher. Personally I don't think it is worth the money.

Cheers,
