Hey guys, I just unexpectedly got $40 lol, so I was looking for stuff to get. I was looking at the first dvd of dangerous, but still not sure. I mainly do cards, and coins. I really dont want anymore card stuff unless its ultra amazing like the stuff on dangerous. Some mentalism couldn't hurt anyone. I'm really open to any suggestions, as long as its close-up, walk around stuff. NO STAGE STUFF haha. I mostly have Jay Sankey dvd's (he is my favourite teacher) but I do have loops dvd's, the first Daniel Garcia project dvd, Silver Dream and to many others to name. I have bobo's coin book, 13 steps to mentalism, royal road to card magic, and the encyclopedia of magic.

Thanks, and sorry for the long post,
Rob

I would save your money when you are a begginner evryone tends to spend all their money on magic. I KNOW I DID! I have learned to save my money but if you are going to buy something for 40$ I would recommend the Richard Sanders show it has a variety of really creative stuff I have volume 3 and absolutely love it! Thats just my opinion! Oh yeah it is a 3 volume set and can obviously be found at penguin.
lol
hope that helped,
donald

ok I will check out the Richard Sanders show. What is surfaced going to be? Also, I wouldnt really consider myself a beginner. I really practice my stuff, I am working on routines, and I perform ALOT. lol

im going to give a suggestion not many people give, donate to Magic For Darfur details HERE (http://www.magicfordarfur.org/) or donate it to any charity really and practice what you already have. other than that I HIGHLY suggest mystique from dangerous.

well I've decided on 2 dvd's but can't decide which one. Its either dangerous (the trick dvd) or band shark by dan harlan. I love how band shark uses everyday objects (well moreso everyday than cards) and how the trics are so simple and direct. but jeeze angle zero and breach make me wanna cry. I would pay $30 bucks just for one of those effects lol. I cant decide

Mystique is amazing... It really is, its all very practical stuff that can be done with very little to no set up. Its all solid material, and very practical. Its a must for any serious card worker. IMO

Hey, Surfaced is going be a DVD on the awesome move known as clipshift. I don't know about the price of the DVD though. If you don't what is the clipshift it is the final vanish that Dan use in his trick The Queens you can watch it Here (http://media.theory11.com/1104-Dan-%26-Dave----Iceland) You could also see Jordan do it 2 times in the blackpool video Here (http://media.theory11.com/1184-Blackpool-2008) The trailer for the DVD is in www.dananddave.com and yes you could also see the move done there too. Hope this help
Cheers

The scary thing is there is a trick that uses all of those bolded except for tissue but COULD be used for the trick. Maybe I will put up a video of it. I got it from Magic Magazine. It is a good trick also.

ehh I'm not much of a flourisher. It's fun every now and then, but I don't really go crazy with it. I think I will just get the first dangerous dvd.
