Hi -

That was very good! I have a couple of comments but they are very very minor - on the whole that was an excellent color change.

1) Generally, if you are doing the change face-up, you can make it much more visual by changing a red face card into a black spot card or vice versa - QH to AC is much better than 9C to 9H. Still, you can't always set up beforehand so just a tip to remember ;).

2) I find that it is possible to spread your fingers during the change, which makes it look a bit cleaner. It's not a big thing, so don't worry, though!

Excellent work.

Personally, I prefer when the change is a little slower, with a more deliberate "wipe". As Kati said - spreading the fingers while you pull away is a great suggestion.

I actually do spread my fingers, I only noticed that I hadn't when I had a look at the video on the preview option :(

Thanks for the comments :D

Quite a good change!

I was just about to make an Erdnase change video lol.. You beat me to it. Let's all have a go at the Erdnase like the Revolver thing lol.

Nothing to do with the change itself, but I would say either get a new camera or webcam because the lagtime does tend to get really annoying, especially if you plan to make longer tricks.

that was a pretty good change. personally for me.. i think opening your fingers is a must, it makes the change look fantastic! yet you did a good job with it. thats all i noticed, just open your hands and you'll have an excellent change! nice job! :)

Let's all have a go at the Erdnase like the Revolver thing lol.

Mystik: that was quite good but I meant spread your fingers all the way through the change, not just at the end. Then at the end, really stretch your fingers outAlso, a couple of extremely minor points:

a. Don't show your hands empty so much - it just makes spectators think that they are not. A quick show on each side would be good.

b. Notice how kev 'pivoted' his hand onto the deck (e.g. pinkie touches edge of deck, turn over hand like a book) - it isn't a major point but it makes it look a bit more natural.

kev: no comments, that was great!

:lol: Thanks.

I learned the EEC when I bought 'Nemisis'. Thats where I learned the pivoting of hand. If you do that, you don't actually notice the first thing that you do.

Thanks Kati :D
