used raven, didnt like it, thought it was too complex. is this effective, and is it easy to use in a short sleeved button up shirt?

rather than waiting on people telling you what to think about it, why not think about it yourself?

its a pull.. and as such this means that the big part of it must be anchored to yourself (this is the part thats hidden) and the other part must be able to be concealed in your hand (this is how it works)..

now if you have a clip in your hand with a bit of thread running to a reel thats hidden somewhere on your person do you REALLY think that you could conceal this wearing a short sleeved shirt? (i know of one way this could be done but in my opinion it isnt a very good way but thats just me)

Computer games don't affect kids; I mean if Pac-Man affected us as kids, we'd all be running around in darkened rooms, munching magic pills and listening to repetitive electronic music. - Kristian Wilson, Nintendo, Inc, 1989.. :mrgreen:

There are other options.
In the routine that spawned "3 Fly" Jonathon Townsend kept a reel in his back pocket with the final coin soldered to the end.
He used a body turn and misdirection aswell as the cover of his arm to hide the flight of the coin, thereby ending clean.

Food for thought.
