About a week & a half ago, a friend of mine was kind enough to lend me volumes 2 & 3 of the Troy Hooser Total Destruction DVD set.
These are available seperately from Emagicticks @ £29.95 each
The 2 volumes I viewed contained the following :-
Volume Two
- * Touch of Brass - 3 coins appear & then "dissaper" & change into 3 , other coins; Chinese in this case
* Color Changing Deck - exactly that
* Redirected Coins Across - An excelent coins across routine
* Coin-Fusion - 3 coins change to 3 Chinese coins
* Ultimate Illogical Cut (Sybil) - an 8 packet false cut invented by
Mr Hooser
* Slipstream - a usefull cull that will allow you to move the card to any
possition in the deck above where the card was.
* Double Decker Plus - deck not only changes colour, but the selected card
changes to an entirely different card brand with a
Huge X on the back
* Dexterous Ditch - used in coin fusion
* Sponge Ball Bonus - Usefull adaption of a TT & a gr8 sponge ball routine
- * Squeeze Away - closest thing to real magic, 3 coins visibly vanish into
thin air
* 3 Fly Simplified - easy 3fly routine - took me 30min to learn
* Bogus Torn & Restored Card - Torn & restored using blank cards that
spec draws a pic on
* Troy’s Triumph - say no more
* Coins Through Table - speaks for its self
* Troy This One - Intregueing coin trick where coins vanish & appear from
impossible places(behind his knee; ear & watch)
* Cool as Ace - very impressive 4 ace production
* Garrett Cut - visualy impressive false cut used in Cool as Ace
Each DVD is divided into 2 sections - Performance & Explanation; the performances are for 2 vary pretty girls & the explanations are just Mr Hooser & the Camera
Mr Hoosers teaching style seems a little stiff at 1st, like he's uncomfortable infront of the camera, but he explains everything clearly & is easy to understand. His usage of the Flipper & Expanded coins are ingenious to say the least (yet 2 more items to add to my growing Wish list
)
I'd have to rate these 10/10 if for no other reason (but there are many other reasons) than Mr Hooser has done something that no one else has been able to; ie get me interested in coin tricks
