stupid people these days...

Finally sold enough stuff on ebay today to be able to order this, along with the Superman Coin Bend! Cant wait to get it!

I have a party on friday and was wandering how long it took you guys to learn it before you could perform it? I already have a good idea of how its done and have practised my way, but i have a feeling its sleightly (pun intended) different.

for me to completly perfect this it took about an hour of practice for about 2-3 days...some people might say "oh you suck, it only took me 10 minutes to perfect this" but the thing is i could have performed it within 10 minutes of practicing too...but not perfectly and effortlessly...i like to be able to do my tricks when i have 100% chance of perfect execution...like i said about an hour or less of practice for a few days should do it...taking a break for a day and praticing again the next day really helps...but you could get away with learning it about a half an hour total if you really really needed to...

Guys - this is way off topic

not neccessarily...we are talking about how long it takes to learn sinful

I received this yesterday and everything you have read about this is true. This is by far, the best illusion I have come across. First, its very easy to learn. But the overall effect is amazing! From the slam into the can, and then the best part is the sounds of the gurgling liquid with the coin inside. I recommend this to anyone who wants something that can be performed anywhere with no gimmicked items. This one will blow 'em away!

I thought that you were talking about the Superman coin bend

oh...nope talking about sinful

Could UK performers just confirm the best coin to use ie. will it work with a 50p or is that just too big for most beer and soda cans in this country.

I was just about to say the same thing, i love Sinful but I'm too sure which coin would work best with which can, in America it's easy and you can just use a quarter but I'm not sure for UK. Can anyone help?

I received this today. Its awesome cant wait to get performing it! At the moment, im practicing with a 10p coin and a 330ml can of carling! Im hungover so im scared of opening the can and cant tell you if the coin fits, but its good for practicing the rest!

I've found through trial and error that some cans WILL take a 10p and quite easily too and these tend to be the beer/cider cans. The 10p is usually too big for the 330ml soft drinks cans, so I use a 20p with these.

I now have a preference for the 20p where a spec has one of these but I would suggest that you practice with diffent copinds as they handle slightly differently because of the size and the shape.

If a particular spec hasn't a 20p then at least you can adapt more easily with confidence.

ive found 10p coin to be okay with most soft drink cans. i.e coke cans. however i performed the trick for some friends last week with a coke can i hadnt checked and it turned out at the vital moment to be totally different to cans i had used before. doh
also did the trick last night with a 10p and a strongbow can which worked. but only just, not very smoothly.
suppose its just a case of trial and error.

There appears to be a lot of inconsistency with cola cans and I wonder if this is because lots of stockists import their cans rather than buy in the UK.

I wonder if it's another tax thing and you know that they say that not paying your taxes is sinfull
