| Topic: Best resource on sleeving? |
|
||
|
I'm looking to improve my sleeving. I've looked around, and from what I saw Carl Cloutier was mentioned the most. I know he has a video dedicated to sleeving, so I have that in mind already. What do you think the best resource on sleeving is? |
|

Rocco has a DVD on sleeving. Patrick Page also comes to mind. Manuel Muerte does sleeving as well in his MisDirection DVD. rannie |
|
||
| Brian Platt's "Catapult" DVD would be a good addition. |
|
||
| That's right! You might also want to check out Justin miller. |
|
||
| Carl Cloutier is good, too. You might be able to pick up some of his older DVDs for a bargain price. 'Catapult' is a great one for coins. |

Rocco and Carl Cloutier,both have great techniques! Thanks, Hansel! |
|
||
| Thanks for all the replies. More to practice! |
|
||
| I'd start with Bobo. Lots of good info in there applicable to more than just coins. Ross Bertram has a nice section in one of his books. |
|
||
|
I agree Bobo's is a great place to start. Justin N. Miller |

| Rocco is the most original anywhere. You should have seen his act at the Acadamy of Magical Arts award show... KILLED... |
|
||
| For general sleeving ( not just coins ) I like Carl Cloutier. To me you need a kind of flair to pull of the unending magnitude of Rocco's sleeving lol |
|
||
|
For sleeving routines, I like the DVD "The Flicking Fingers" with Manuel Muerte. Lots of fun as well!!!! |

|
Alexander de Cova has a good DVD on sleeving. :wavey: Håkan |
|
||
| Justin Miller has a good take on sleeving in his lecture (probably in his lecture notes, don't know for sure) and on the Silver Dreams DVD. A bonus with the Silver Dreams routine is that it is hard enough to do that most folks won't bother with it so you will be rather unique with it. |

Justin has also done some work on sleeving pens too. He did quite a few tricks with the pen in his lecture. You can fine more in his notes. Sean |

[/quote] My vote is also for Rocco, his set of DVD’s gives you the mechanics to sleeve just about anything, and I mean anything. Anyone see the Ice cream bar coming? I know I didn’t. |

Rocco and Cloutier are both great resources. Homer Liwag's Coin2 has a version that uses sleeving and would be a great routine to practice as you walk around with 3 silver dollars. Much easier than walking around with 3 balls. |

|
||
| I have to add Baltresca's Sleeving dvd. I just got this and it has some moves that I feel change the idea of sleeving. |
|
||
| Bob King has some really practical material, as well. |
|
||
| I got a Cloutier video and have been working with that. It's been useful but I'd like to see other people's work before I recommend it. |
|
||
| Jim Pace also has some nice material. |
|
||
| I would set my own creative juices going and practice and try some things of your own based on the requirements for you way of working. |
|
||
| I am with Pete on this. You gain and benefit a lot that way. |
