New video out!! Showing the CD manipulation of"Showoff CD Maniplation" of Eddy Ray. This is all sleight of hand magic, showing vanishes, exchanges, appearences of CD, plus small CD's to large CD's. This stuff is good magic. I am so excited about being able to learn the real work, it will take a lot of practice, but the end results will be worth it.
Finally, someone giving some of the handling. Get it at http://www.stoners.com it is so new it is not on the web site yet so email or call to place an order. It is only $30. |

Has anyone purchased this DVD? - Is it a CD that is worth investing in?

I just got my copy and stayed up waaaay too late watching it! Eddy Ray's Showoff with CDs is EXCELLENT!
I've seen Eddy perform live and I was shocked when I saw he had a DVD out. His work is visually stunning, the explanations are very clear, and the moves are unique and extremely well thought out. There are about 40 different moves explained in great detail, with multiple angles, and tips about tricky moves and angles. Here's a demo video I found: http://www.magicshopclips.com/showoffwithcds.wmv . You can also find it on http://www.eddyraymagic.com . Phantom, the DVD is definitely worth the investment. I give it a 9 out of 10. Woulda been a 10 but I was just a little jealous that I didn't think of it first! Ben S

I watched the DVD too. Great DVD. I really enjoyed it. It's something fresh because there are not many sources on CD Manipulation.
Everything is explained in great detail. The CD gimick is soooo great and allows for some wicked magic. The downside is that its use is limited in certain situations. But with the right situations, it's a killer concept. The other techniques taught are also great. Everything is very visual. I agree that Eddy Ray is a good teacher. I think his performance was omitted from the DVD so that it encourages originality even more and I like that. It makes you think. I give it a 9 too. Hope more DVDs of this type come along.
Yours,
Ivan |

It says on the demo vid "with any CD", yet above Steve Oxford mentions making up 'special' CDs. I assume most sleights work with any CD and some require a 'special' one. How hard is it to make these required CDs?
Thanks Adam |

Adam,
It's REALLY easy! It costs just a few dollars (like less then $5) and it's only for a couple of the 40 different moves taught. The moves with normal CDs are killer! Ben S

The construction of the CD gimmick is peanuts, but allows for some cool visual magic, like anything with the same concept. This will make sense when you see it.

Just got the CD and was very impressed with it. What I liked about the CD is Eddy Ray's teaching style...it gives you more than one view (ie front, side, and back). He explains it so well that even someone like me (who gets very frustrated when trying to learn new effects) gets it.
I give it a 9 also. Worth the price. |

Agreed. Mine arrived today..Eddy shipped it pretty fast to the UK. Excellent moves and teaching.
Well worth it. Adam |

Indeed, I am not disappointed with the DVD. I am a manipulation fiend and this suits me quite well. At first I thought, "Nothing new. I may have to pass this one along." But about half way through I sat up and took notice. He uses an excellent magic principle (PLEASE, LET'S NOT DISCLOSE THIS IN A PUBLIC FORUM - ANYONE INTERESTED SHOULD PURCHASE THE DVD AND SUPPORT EDDY) that makes his manipulations look amazing. I feel like a dope not thinking of this myself earlier. I suppose that is the benefit of learning from others.
I would have liked to see Mr. Ray's manipulation routine. That would have added a nice touch to the DVD and would have made it, in my opinion, complete. The moves are well taught. The quality of the dvd is good. The quality of the magic is very good. I try not to support Magic Makers in their rip offs (copying the ideas of others), but as far as I know this is no rip off. The DVD gets the Forrest Chapman A-. Well done, Eddy. FC |
