"The New York Papers," Mark Twain once said,"have long known that no large question is ever really settled until I have been consulted; it is the way they feel about it, and they show it by always sending to me when they get uneasy.

pegasus Eternal Order United Kingdom 10537 Posts	Posted: May 29, 2015 07:35 pm 0 OMG. I perform a false overhand shuffle that requires 30 secs of practise and it flys past everyone. Why buy this at an advanced skill level requirement?
MRAC Regular user 177 Posts	Posted: May 30, 2015 08:51 am 1 Hi Pegasus, I also perform false overhand shuffles and false riffle shuffles but I think this one looks good. That's why I was posting it. In the meantime I ran through the video a view times and I'm pretty sure I now know what's going on. I was able to replicate it in short time ... not as smooth as in the video but already ok. Of course I don't know if what I'm doing is the method he is using ... but this is something I will try in the real world. All the best M.
ftlum Special user Roseville, CA 730 Posts	Posted: Jun 1, 2015 02:12 am 1 This looks like the Mead-Kennedy shuffle in Mike Close's Closely Guarded Secrets. I wouldn't be surprised if that's what's been reinvented. Ellusionist had no clue about the Mead Kennedy shuffle when I asked them, so I presume there's no crediting to suggest its a version of the shuffle.

mantel Special user 922 Posts	Posted: Jun 3, 2015 12:50 am 0 The link works again. But it states "This product is no longer for sale". I really wish they would stop relying on this so called magic historian that they may still have on staff. He or she may not still work for them. But things like this keep on happening. Quote: On May 28 2006 Brad Christian wrote: Look, crediting and originality are very important to Ellusionist and the people that work in this company. Many months ago we hired an exceptionally knowledgable historian/magician to research everything for us. He is the editor for a well respected magic magazine [not Kaufman] and if I said the name several of you would recognize him. This is the reason you have seen the crediting be SO thorough in many of our recent releases [such as the Axis Change], with which volume of what, and what page number etc. This guy is amazing. But I want you to know it's hard to credit sometimes... you think you've got everything imaginable and then you find it was explained in some VERY old book in the 1800's. There's no way you would have known, and you had checked with everyone under the sun. But with this researcher, he's VERY good and we're glad to have him onboard. He costs a LOT of money, but we feel it's so important that we are willing to make the expenditure on an ongoing basis. So hopefully there's at least a slight difference between MagicMakers and Ellusionist. Brad.

Steven Conner Inner circle 2720 Posts	Posted: Jun 3, 2015 06:29 pm 0 Look at 5 posts above yours. "The New York Papers," Mark Twain once said,"have long known that no large question is ever really settled until I have been consulted; it is the way they feel about it, and they show it by always sending to me when they get uneasy.

Steven Conner Inner circle 2720 Posts	Posted: Jul 3, 2015 05:03 pm 0 This is still a good shuffle to learn. "The New York Papers," Mark Twain once said,"have long known that no large question is ever really settled until I have been consulted; it is the way they feel about it, and they show it by always sending to me when they get uneasy.
