I've said it all before!!! Rune, by seeing your clips, it annoys me that I can't perform to your standard but it also inspires me to practice even harder.

As ever, thank you for sharing your performances in this way.

Rune very nicely done.

I have been practicing this routine for quite a while now. I believe that I have it down fairly smooth and flowing nicely.

I do have one suggestion though. When executing the t**t vanish if you injog or outjog the card to be vanish, leaving the bottom card exposed a little(so you see both backs of the cards) and then doing the t**t vanish and squaring the cards as the hand leaves the other hand this, in my opinion, reinforces the illusion of the card being taken and palmed in the hand. And therefore makes the reveal of the vanished card have more of an impact.

There is one problem that I have been having. For the vanish of the last ace I have been l*****g the card. I am confined to a wheelchair and this is not always possible. Because sometimes the table is to low for me to l*p the card effectively.

I have seen other methods of using the deck to vanish the last ace(Rub-A-Dub) but I did not like this.

Buy viewing your video on the Invisible palm I now have an alternate handling of vanishing the last ace when l******g is not possible.

Keep the videos coming. I enjoy them tremedously.
Great job and thank you very much.

Just when you think that things can't get any better, Rune goes and make another video just to prove you wrong :lol:

VERY impressive (yet again) and I agree, keep them coming.

Edh:
Thanks for your comments. Yes, the ending of my routine, is an idea I got from a video of David Costi (I believe his name is). He uses to two cards from the deck, but that's all. He then sandwish the ace, and then palm it off, which I don't find natural, since you can't palm off a card that is sandwished. That's why I strip out the "middle" card (the ace) and place in on top, and THEN palm it off. Makes much more sense to the routine. Thanks for all your nice words.

Dat:
I had to laugh a bit when you posted those very nice words. Thanks alot, it's nice to take with me. Thanks alot.

To you all: thanks !

I have seen your comments, and no, you are wrong, that's not how the trick is done.

Nice, very nice. As far as I can see, your handling is flawless and your style is very appealing to watch. You make it look easy. A good quality video with nice music, too.

Well done Mark.. but why post your video of it on magicbunny rather than here?
