enjoy

Firstly - well done. Can see a lot of effort has gone into that routine, so keep it up.

Really liked how you started off, always loved the splitting effect, but as the routine went on, the effects seemed to repeat. Always believe a trick should climax and this can be easily done with sponge balls. You might want to invest in a couple of different coloured balls to pull out at the end, or perhaps a ball that changes into a rabbit or perhaps for the older generation...

Regards and keep up the good work,
Alex

thanks for your coments, i think your right in saying that i need a bigger climax, i was thinking about purchasing one of those balls to cubes,
cheers,

go for the ball to rabbit then you can end on the ball goes from my hand and back several times..... boing ....boing...boing....the ball is now in your hand, oh wait did i say boing, boing, boing thats the wrong magic words if you say that you get a rabbit.

I had a ball to cube. I dont know whether it was just cheap but it went funny after a while and looked nothing like the other 2 sponge balls.

It may of been me not looking after it as you should or just because it was cheap but i didnt like it.

Very nice video BTW!
Very smooth and sleights are well rehearsed!

All your moves looked well performed. Although the picture quality was a bit jumpy (that may be my computer though).
I think your routine could still do with a little bit of work as it's a bit repetative.
I think you rush into splitting it into 2 balls.
More could be done with 1 ball first i.e. hand to hand, hand to pocket under you hat or whetever.
There is loads you can do with sponge balls though so I'm sure it will develop with time.
A positive point i do want to make is that your pacing and timing of the routine was very good. You didn't rush through it and you didn't stumble when it came to the moves. That shows that youv'e really thought about the routine and not just mashed a load of moves together.

Hope you take this as constructive criticism as that is how it's intended.

Sam.

I think you should work on your retention vanish a bit more. Also IMO (!) it's better if you first put one ball in the pocket, then another one in your hand, then the trird one goes to the pocket again, after which you demonstrate 3 balls in the hand (not 2 balls to the hand and one to the pocket, like in your case).

But overal, pretty well, keep it up.
