pretty nice, only thing I would say is try to relax your fingers just slightly after vanishing... your first finger looks a lil "stressed" like its doing something

[edit] afterthought... i find that one smooth down up motion, rather than sharp down up down up down up down up down up, looks better with this... but its personal preference

Yes, I agree. If you try and make your palm look more open and natural then they will be less suspicious. Also, try and not let your hand go off the screen (and change the music :lol: ). I tend to do that vanish sort of 'covered' like this :

But in the video above, my hands arent terribly relaxed so I know how you feel.

i Dont totally agree the movent that you do with the other hand makes it looks like theres someit happeninig and i saw the cards movement but all round nice card vanish also dont curl ur hands in to the card i try to make my fingers curl in the movement of up down up down its a hard trick to do but we'll get there

Yea, I agree with what you're saying. Mine does still require a lot of practice and hard work (why i havent actually made a post for it), but I have been really busy at the moment so haven't really had time.b Seceral more hours of tiresome work awaits.... :cry:
