tenkie aka clip was great ditch even better.

down's slight flash but only if you know were to look.

third one are you using a bit of wrist action if so well done.

with all to much finger wiggling the only hand the audience needs to be interested is the one the coin vanishes from, when you open your hand bring it closer to the camera so it becomes the focal point of attention.
your other hand can practicly do anything you wan't, pick your nose or blatenly steal a jumbo, i do it all the time.

Hey folks!
Okay, my advice is only on the second one, because the other were really good :D
My advice for you on the second one is: Watch your thumb. Try to make what you're doing as natural as possible. The move you make to make the coin reappear is very fluid and nice. But when you are making the coin disappear, watch the thumb!!
Thanks,
Dominick

All Good. Very Well performed. The only point i would have commented on has already been covered by Dominick about your thumb on the 2nd vanish.

Exactly what he said.

But, is it natural when I basicaly understand all the tricks without knowing them before? I think it's the knowledge what makes you understand most of the tricks. I didnt know ANY of those, but now I know how to even do them. :/

I agree with this too. I thought 1 & 3 were really smooth but Dominick pointed out a major flaw in the handling of you're 2nd vanish. Also, on the 2nd vanish a criticism I have beyond the thumb thing is the "BIG" movement you make with both hands before the coin appears back in your hand. I don't know how it goes with a lay person but as a magician something about that seemed fishy. Having said that, I'm c*** (not the best) at coins - cards are my thing. I know a fair amount of stuff on coins but cannot do any of it so kudos. You're miles ahead of me. Anyone who wants proof just check out my entry for Talkmagic competition 2. That's the best coins across I can do.
