Utility = 8.5 Production = 7.5 Instruction = 8.0 Value = 9.0 ***Vinny's TopGun DVD*** I've been asked my opinion of this DVD several times and thought I post some quick comments here to try and cut down the volume of e-mail I'm getting. Vinny teaches the TopGun Sleight, a sleight that is, in my opinion, a great contribution to Card Magic. It is a versatile sleight-- it can be used as a swtich, a color change or a control. How's that for utility? Vinny teaches the sleight well and even includes an original effect called "Warped & Restored", one of the best in it's class. I particularly like the effect because it has some very bold strategies in it and I'm a thrill-seeker! Most of the people on this board are too young to remember the books by Jerry Andrus on card controls, but I still remember them and sensation they created. Vinny's thinking with this sleight is parallel with Jerry's and produces equal results. BTW, the Andrus books are almost impossible to find now and last I heard were selling for a few hundred each. Although the DVD is not studio quality, I don't have a problem with that because I'd rather not have to pay for the increased cost of a studio with blonds that pick cards. Just the information please-- that's what I'm after and that's all I want to pay for! Overall, I can think of only a few things in magic that give this great a value for only $20.00! Steven Youell |
