Downs Palm (under used concealment)

Postby tfeher1 » Mar 7th, '10, 18:13



Hi Guys,
Just did a quick 4 coin production using the Downs Palm. These days everybody is so into what new I feel they forget the classics.
Hopefully this video will get people interested in this concealment once again.
Enjoy
Comments feedback is alway welcome, good or bad.
Thanks for watching.
Tim

What he said. Just think, all you'd have to do is call this 'The super-dooper-street-magic-cool-packs-small-plays-big-special-production', ask Eluusionist to market it for you and Get brad Christian to teach it and you'd make a bomb! :twisted:

I'll soon be posting two reviews of products from the same performer. They are quite stunningly explained.

Very nice Tim. There were a couple of subtlites there which I liked, particularly at the start with the glasses. :)

Nice. I always loved the Downs palm in theory but worried about angles.

Having looked at your handling of it, I now see there's no need to worry.

Good work!

Thanks again guys.

The only angle you would have to worrie about with the handling I did is with the very last subtity I used. Depending on how close your spectators are I ethier use it or take it out and just produced the last coin.
Glad to hear this might have sparked some interest in this concealment.

Thanks Tim,

That's totally inspiring for a newbie to coin magic like me. I found the Downs palm came more naturally to me than the CP, but was worried about angles as well... Seeing you in action has definitely made me think again!
