Hey, I've been getting into the cups and balls, and I was wondering if you could help me expand the number of tricks I can do with them. Links to videos is appreciated, but just the name of the trick is fine.
Here are the tricks I know: Classic "Penetrating Ball" Transporting Ball (from cup to cup) Fooling around with the balls and wand. That's really all I know folks, so I'd like to know more stuff to do with this set. The little kiddies love it! |

Michael Ammar's book, "The Complete Cups and Balls". Has all the "tricks" from Dai Vernon's routine and a raft of other sequences between it's pages. Many consider it to be the the best source of information. For twenty-two dollars L&L publishing has the pdf of that book for sale. You can find it here.
http://llepub.com/index.php?main_page=pr......ts_id=32 He also has two DVDs that cover the information well, I'm told. I think the pdf is probably your best bet. KG PS, I think you should be careful fooling around with your wand, in public. |

I have Ammar's book (pdf) and videos as well; both are excellent. Start with the book, learn the basics, and you will do well.
You can get a lot of ideas by watching someone who has done the work and created his own amazing routine, too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZEYmGnK4K9g |

Kent is too modest.
If Motley Mage hadn't mentioned the Fun Shop routine, I would have. Superb work from a true Gent.
