It was so surreal meeting Jay Sankey in person, was watching his lecture at the Blackpool Convention (obviously) and would never thought id get to have my picture taken with him, he is such a great guy and was so nice nice all the peeps that come up to him, giving great advice to everyone including me, on the one hand top palm which I can now do with a big thanks to him for some great tips.

Dynamo has some great XCM moves which he kindly showed me and a small group of people, and was showing his new effect The colour Changing Laces and a new booklet with some good effects in. The bit I liked was he got 9 people to pick a card done a few cuts and shuffles(false I know) then proceeded to find all our cards in a very flashy manner.
Got is autograph about 4 times too. :lol:

All in all a great experience and will definetly be going next year.

Man, I wish I could meet Jay. He seems nice and funny. I haven't really heard of Dynamo until now, so I don't know much about him, but apparently he's an XCMer, so thumbs up to him.

:lol: I recall Dynamo from the Bunny Hutch ages ago... he's been around a while and woke up to the fact that he had to make things happen for himself... he has and I would say he's going to go a ways with it.

Jay is an interesting bird... I owe him an article for VISIONS that we spoke of months ago but I've been slammed with other projects. From what I picked up in our short phone conversation however, he's a great and very generous guy with a fantastic sense of passion for our craft. :wink:

You can read about when I met him here. He was extremely nice. Check out his ripped body on the poster in the background. Ha ha ha! :D

Josh... I think that picture is priceless!

Not so much that Angel is in it, but for the expression on your face... I can't quite work out whether it's:

1: "Oh my, it's Criss Angel!"
2: "I can't believe he just far%%d"
3: "Quick—quick... take the photo while he's 3 feet off the ground"
4: "Yeah, yeah. It's Angel. He may be a great showman, but I'm half albino"
5: "I can't believe it... I get a chance to be photographed with Criss Angel, and I've got my skanky old miners jumper on!"
