Enough of this monkey business!

I actually learnt The Chinese Bit as a teenager (yes, around 30 years ago, the effect really has been around THAT long!) but I never performed it much. It didn't seem to matter how slowly I did it, some specs just couldn't remember which coin was supposed to be where!

If you want a bit of constructive criticism...

I think you seem to fiddle about a bit too much in your closed fist, you need to slick that up a bit so your fist appears more natural and it doesn't look like you're doing 'something' to the coins, especially when you're taking coins out of the fist.

Also, I personally prefer the coin to be tossed off the back of the fist (as originally routined) rather than taken with the fingers, I just feel that taking the coin looks like a cover for a 'move'. Personal preference here though.

Finally, maybe trousers with bigger pockets would be an idea!

Nicely done though, I'm just nit-picking.
Cheers.

Cheers pud, constructive always welcome.
I agree totally. It looked a bit fiddly at times.
And I was tossing it off (fnur fnur snik snik gwfark gwfark said finbar) but there was a reason for not doing it that I'm not going to post here

The trouble with bigger pockets is all the more tempted you are to fill em and take loads of stuff out with you lol

Thanks for the nit-pick, always appreciated.
