back palming

Postby crazydude » Mar 25th, '05, 18:34



i can front palm a card, but i cant figure out how to back palm a card. i have 'the royal road to card magic', but it doesn't explain that very well. it just explains the front palm. can someone pm me and explain it, please? it would be very appreciated.

Hello! i am new here, and i need some help. By the way i cant learn magic unless i get a pass to the restricted area, is that right?
Well, i've mastered the book 'royal road to card magic' but i need more info like how to make cards appear from thin air (empty 'looking' hand thing), as performed by Cardini and Lance Burton-----can anyone help me???? Is it to do with back palming??????
Before explaining do you need to pm me or do i need the access? Thanks,
Haz

Hi Haz, anyone can learn such secrets but not by Magician's Only Area access. Most of us just bought books, videos or DVDs and learned from them. Joining a Magic Club might be a good way of advancing a magical education! The MO area doesn't teach these sort of things as it's assumed those with access will already know them or will have found their own ways of doing card sleights. Of coure, not every magician can do card sleights or even wants to do them. Coins, ropes, sponge balls and other props are equally valid. Have a look through the Reviews section and see what sort of items refer to card sleights and then make your choice.
