Hi Everyone,

Not sure if this is the right section to post this, please move it if it is not.

I'm working on a novel switched billet peek that works really well for me.

I loved the work in Switch Craft (Elliott J. Bresler) but I just felt that I needed a really good peek to round things off.

The criteria I'm using are as follows (Inspired by EJ Bresler):

- Needs to by easy to execute
- Look natural
- Can be done standing up
- Can be done in close up situation
- Entire contents of card can be viewed

I think my peek is new, I have'nt seen it around, I read alot, but then again, there is a lot of material out there.

I don't really want to give this one away without getting credit for it so I would really appreaciate it if anyone could give me some tips on further developing my peek and how to check if it is truely a new method or if I have just developed an old one independently.

Thanks,

Sea.

The best thing to do is to approach someone who knows what they're talking about and see if they've come across it before. Elliott's a nice guy, you could always drop him a line?

Thanks Lady, I'll do that,

Also, would it be ok if I pm'd you a youtube link showing my peek in action, I'd love to get some feedback,

Thanks,

Sea.

What's wrong with something as stock as Acidus Novus? It's been the premier peek method for decades now and thus far, I've seen little to nothing that tops it (while there are some interesting tears out there, but I hate tears, they aren't logical in 99% of the case).

Don't let the idea of finding a "new method" drive you crazy, go with what works. If you don't know Acidus Novus PM me and I'll help you out with it (CLARIFICATION: I'm giving him one of my own published pieces with the method in it that Millard Longman is very much aware of). There's much more to the technique than my little booklet offers, but at least you'll have the basic move and be able to see how powerful it can be.

There is absolutely no need to waste money on expensive gaffed wallets, card holders, etc. such things are magic tricks. Mentalists don't do tricks we do all we can to avoid "props"

Thanks Craig,,

I'm with you on not using props, I'll PM you on the Acidus Novus,

thanks,

Sea.

Thanks for the info Craig, looks really interesting,

I'll let you know if I have any further questions,

Thanks again,

Sea.

Hi All,

I have posted up a short video on youtube of my peek method in action.

I've been using it for a few months now and it has been 100% successful. If you have any feedback I'd much appreciate it. The video is a little rough as I was filming myself while trying to mind my kids (a feat in itself).

thanks,

Sea.
