nicely done i love performing this, great little trick and well worth the money. You spun the card well, you may want to work on the actual position of the.....(well..you knowww...) so that it is dead center of the card, this stops the card from spinning lopsided like it was doing a couple of times in the vid. This was probably also why it didnt spin for to long. When i perform, i can spin the card so it spins for a good 20-30 seconds. Also in your performance, you didnt combine the moves taught in the instructions, i think the moves combined really does convince the audience that there are no hook ups. Also try and be even more creative, you were doing great stuff, and from a slightly longer video i was hoping to see you spin the card around your body, try learning that, its great

I'm guessing you didn't post this just to get a "looks good" from people, but to get some hints as to where you can improve. I'm still thinking wether I would have found out the secret behind it if I didn't already know it. The problem is we don't see your head, and it's hard to say if your movement is giving too much away, should it be performed in front of real people.

Like Pyro Ellvelin said, I would try to be more creative, and move the card places that would seem impossible for the method used. (damn this is hard to describe without giving the trick away).

Keep practising, you'll get it perfect soon enough !

Ya, I've been working on getting the card around my body. I find it hard because the *it* keeps breaking. Thanks for the advice!

I might work on getting my head in the shot the next time. Thanks for the advice.
