Back to the discussion...
I saw the demo video on Ellusionists site a few moments ago. And I have to say that the slow visual passing of the bands through each other just looks like candy! This is going to be a great instructional from DG. I can't wait. There are so many items coming out lately that it is just getting so hard to set priorities! FOCUS BRIAN! FOCUS!

Actually, that's a really great question. I guess we will know for sure tomorrow. Smile

The effects on the DVD and lecture notes are far beyond your abilities. (They require mastery of the mechanic's grip.) It would only break your heart.

After a quick viewing, Slink and the Danny's handling of CMH are both worth the download. Slink is really good. It looks especially good when it is done with 2 different colored rubber bands. The bands literally just touch and they link with no funny business. The unlink is a great touch also. Dan Harlan would be very proud.

Bent is good too. A couple of interesting sleights and very practical. 3 different variations depending on your style. If you don't have superman coin bend or Quantum Bender, this is a great visual coin bend with a borrowed quarter.

Touch. It's ok, nothing revolutionary. Could be a fun trick to do when someone gives you a quarter and says "do a trick." Wouldn't open or close with this. Not nearly the quality of Bent and Slink.

Overall, I would say it is worth $25 if you like rubber band and coin magic. Only complaint is Bent and Touch aren't performed in front of an audience.

I agree...well worth the time to download. Like everyone else, I really was going after Slink. Garcia's CMH are spectacular, but Slink takes the cake. Watching it the first time to learn it, makes you think it is the XCM of rubberband tricks, but it is not that bad. Bent and Touch are nice to do with a borrowed quarter. I highly suggest that you pick up BTS as soon as possible before anyone else does.

I agree.
These are all great effects. Having bent coin methods in your arsenal is great for impromptu stunning. Daniel Garcia is a great teacher. The use of the freeze and close up snapshots and the angled viewing during teaching was stellar.

Very easy to learn. Slink totally kills people.
Well done,

Does it have bonus footage of Danny telling about the great experience he had working with Brad and Ellusionist?
