Just thought i'd share it with you guys

Sam

thats cool.
but...i don't have the patients or determination to learn fancy flourishes the cards normally end up getting thrown at the wall. lol

ok i own up - i teached him all he knows lol

Childstuff.... Not that I like to do flourises myself (I belong to the Vernon school), but I think the average magician could learn what he does in a few weeks. Nice pleasing flourises though and as far as I could see most moves preserve the deck order as an added bonus.

Concerning real card manipulation I have seen much more impressive stuff that seem to be way beoynd what we ordinary mortals can learn!!

most of his moves were from dan and daves system.. which a number of people (including yself) can execute those cuts and displays.. (werm, sybil, madonna cuts)

I do the old fashioned god honest card manipulation and I also do a bit of XCM. And i enjoyed the way he was able to almost flawlessly do the moves the entertainment factor is great. Regardless what DvD he has learnt from. But a great video non the less.

Soren ,I my self class me as a "classical" magican , rope, sponges, coins and cards one of thoses types. Have you actually tried this stuff? There has been many a debate on TM about florusihes and not doing flourishies yes it is showy I grant you and probley wouldnt do all them cuts and the lieks at a paid show. But I do get a sense of pleasure out of learning them. I will have to dissagree that any magician can do this in just a few weeks.

this is true.. it took me over a few weeks to even learn one of the flourishes.. its just practice practice practice.. until you get it

Those moves takes months of practice to master. I mean is not enought to do them well because it´s also necesary for them to look nice and smooth.
The video is GREAT and as long as it amaze people I don´t see why it shouldn´t be used on a real public. In other words just use it lol.
ANyway try to avoid too many two handed cuts because some of them look very similar and I guess people won´t note any difference.

Great Job
Sorry by bad english
