Coin Bend Presentation

Postby x_calibre » Mar 21st, '08, 15:36



I perform the Closer coin bend quite regularly now and I am looking for the most mindblowing presentation. I would greatly appreciate your experienced opinion on coin bend presentations.

Using the Closer method, here are some possible presentations:

1. The Closer: Slowly and visually using spectator's finger
2. Jay Sankey's coin bend: Instantly and Visually at magician's fingertips
3. Keith Barry coin bend: kinesthetically and psychologically completely in spectators hand http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=42C0HjEfW7Y
3. Coinvexed: kinesthetically and psychologically completely in spectators hand with an option between two coins
4. Superman Coin Bend: Instead of presenting as a magical effect, bend with pure strength

If you have any other presentations please feel free to share them.
Which presentation(s) do you/would you perform most regularly and why?

Surely you should perform them all (to different people!) and see which one gets YOUR best reaction. Jay Sankey will present his version very well, but hes Jay Sankey, its him. Work with the one you like best, and make it the best!

On a side note, I personally love Sankey's presentation but thats another story!

Or you could make up your own presentation, that only you use.
