I first got into magic when I was around 5 or 6, but I didn't get into card tricks until after I started seeing some of David Blaine's tricks on the TV. The interest stayed with me until I was about 9 or 10. I'm slightly embarrassed to say this, but I was much better at handling cards and doing sleight of hand back then than I am now. (I'm 18 now)
I really had no interest in magic until I just started watching Penn and Tellers 'Fool Us' show. I decided to try and learn some of my tricks again, and I managed to find most of my card tricks. However, after being left in a bag for 8 years and moving house, some cards were missing, and my ID got mixed in with my regular bicycle cards :-\
However, finding the tricks and learning to do them again brought back all the excitement I had when I was younger
I've ordered 2 new tricks, Richard James' "Blank'd" and also another trick by him called "Shake Out". I really can't wait to learn some new tricks!
I'm hoping I can continue to improve and not hit a 'road block' along the way, and lose interest like I did before.
That's a bit about me, I will try and review some tricks I have and get a write-up on this forum
