I started on royal road to card magic. I devoured every david blaine special on tv and used to want to be like him. But I dont really like his type of magic anymore.

It's no surprise that Paul Daniels sparkled my interest too. I had a couple of magic sets as a kid but never really moved on from that, I enjoyed them and performed them for family but didn't really move outside the family and kind of kept it as my own in house entertainment i guess. Then about 20 some years ago a trick shop on the pier in Skegness (my home town) started having a few things that i simply couldn't believe and i was hooked. I remember the demonstrator using Eddie Gibson Coin Unique, Cig through coin and colour changing chips etc. Anyhoo bought them and lost them over time. Woke up with a bad hang over one morning and no Coin Unique :oops:
Life took over and every few years my interest was rekindled then earlier this year decided to learn some skills with coins and more recently cards so i would always have some magic and not have to rely on gaffs or gimmics. So been busy with Royal Road and Bobo and a selection of dvds.
