New Trick I Invented
Would it be too much to ask if the trick can be (relatively quickly) set up anywhere and performed, or is it more difficult to set up than that? Since you mentioned it's not impromptu, I'm guessing it takes a decent amount of set up. You don't have to answer this question if you don't want to...- Vinnie C.

Quick Interactive Mentalism
The subliminal force was a little bit too obvious, so it didn't work for me. It didn't seem like it was natural for you, it seemed like you were doing the motions too purposefully. I caught on from when you made the diamond shape with your hands. I see how it could work on someone, though, and...- Vinnie C.

The Same or Different?
Agreed. I also just combed through the Cafe thread - wow, that conversation was all over the place. That kind of sums all this up. Best, Vince- Vinnie C.

Galaxy Cuts: Boss Wave!
The moves were pretty good - but do you know there is a whole section dedicated to flourishing on this board? This would be more appropriate over there. Best, Vince- Vinnie C.

The Same or Different?
I've watched it 6 times (now 7). It, and its accompanying performance in the tutorial version. Again, I don't doubt that this move can be performed to exceptional standards - my main issue is the massive discrepancy between the trailer performance and the tutorial. This is not a small...- Vinnie C.

New Trick I Invented
I've gotta ask the same question. It looks great, but I can't see how it's possible unless you use a stooge or a camera trick. Obviously I'm open to it being a real trick, and am inclined to believe you, but can you tell us for 100% sure that this is a real, impromptu trick? Best, Vince- Vinnie C.

The Same or Different?
If you compare the two performances (one from his trailer, and one of him actually doing it), you can see how extremely different they are. His finger positions are very different in the trailer "performance", and he does not palm a card. It's obviously a duplicate card used to make the trailer...- Vinnie C.

Clockworks
Not bad, but I have a few comments: 1. Learn and use more openers. The second fellow had a semi-opener there, but the fellow with the Bees just took the cards out of the box normally. Every moment you are holding the deck is an opportunity to do something incredible with it, even if they're...- Vinnie C.

The Same or Different?
They are pretty obviously different. And, given how he executed the "Performance 2", it doesn't look like he's actually able to do the move smoothly - which is one of the likely reasons that he faked it. Using a fake performance certainly is easier than actually practicing a move to make it look...- Vinnie C.

Slippery Cards, How to get more grip?
Sortkwik Fingertip Moistener, right? I've heard it recommended many times, but have never tried it myself. Either way, definitely worth a shot, it's very cheap. Best, Vince- Vinnie C.

Slippery Cards, How to get more grip?
Is this with a brand new deck? You just need to break it in - that will happen naturally as you use it, or with a little bit of fanning powder. The fanning powder trick is simple. Spring the cards into a large paper bag, sprinkle about 2 small dashes of fanning powder into the bag, close it up...- Vinnie C.

Flourishing, What to Learn?
Hey mate, Joker is right - to learn some of the best material, it's going to cost some money. Like with any art or field of endeavor, you often need to be willing to invest in yourself if you're going to become great at it. But, ultimately, it's your choice - you don't have to buy anything if...- Vinnie C.

[HELP] Beginner Cardist
Hey mate, Great to hear you're picking up the art! If you're just starting out, my top suggestion would be the "Xtreme Beginnerz Vol 1" DVD by De'vo. It covers a massive amount of beginner moves and great tips. You can find it on Xtremehandz.com or on eBay (probably for less money). I haven't...- Vinnie C.

A Couple Tutorials
Both moves are Sybil/Z-Grip variations which, while not inherently bad, are certainly a bit overdone. That said, I thought the second move had a nice flair to it. Your teaching was pretty good overall - just make sure things don't get rushed. Break the move down into sections and teach each...- Vinnie C.
