Hi DC, I see you are still wanting more. Nothing wrong with that, it really is a natural occurrence as you journey in all this.

For me, expanding routines is what helped to create most of what I do. First, you perfect the moves, then you have to do something with them, and then you need to do a bit more…Believe me, I know the feeling.

And that's exactly what led me to perhaps my favorite coin effect. After developing a core move, I needed to be able to display it in an effect beyond just the amazement of the move itself…Well, that led to the MB Transpo. It was a neat trick, that I still do a lot but as I got better with more, I wanted more from it. And so, that led to my ReViSiTed effect, where I took the MB Transpo much further and created what for me now is a signature coin trick filled with a little bit of all of what coin magic is. Take a look here:

As I continued to play with core moves, I came up with all sorts of ways to use it and mixed it with even more moves I came across, like the "10 Switch" and the "Quick Pitch." Several examples of this can be found on VinnyMarini.com
There's much more there than just a bunch of my tricks, there is a progression and growth in me displayed all along the way, from The Crimp Change back then, to FlySki now.

Most of the effects began as a quick trick (MBs Quickie Trickys), and then evolved into longer, more modular effects, like my JumpMandu and or the Ike & Mike effects.

I have a keen Coins Across effect that I do pretty regularly now for folks, where I have assembled a neat set of moves to display the coins going across, 1 by 1. A lot of it comes from the sorta stuff I basically do. I call it "Kemosabe," because for me the Coins Across genre has been a trusted friend throughout the years, and has taught me so much and allowed me to learn how to paint and pull my own wagon.

Hope that helps, my friend. Keep moving forward in this New Year.

On the NYCMS DVD set, I have a coin show made up of tricks taught on the DVD, and my latest coin show has another group of effects from the DVD set. There are a few multi phase routines taught in the 17 disc 16 volume set, and among my favorites are copper silver routines using a handkerchief from myself and Roth. They are both based on the Expansion of Texture and Copper or silver extraction right out of Bobo. Other multi phase routines can be found, including a CSB routine with ungaffed coins (an updated handling was in my Penguin Live lecture), which also can be folowed by adding a coins across with three different coins, and a vanish of the coins. Another multi phase routine found is a production, wild coin sequence, change back, and vanish one at a time (I think its called sliding Wild Coin). There is also a routine called three times coin to card, where a signed coin travels under a business card three times (with an updated handling on the Penguin Live lecture). David Roth discussed an entire coin sequence in one of the workshops, and Roth also has a multi phase sequence using a bag. There are many other multi phase routines, (and Gallo has a few on the set)I just can't think of them at the moment since there are over 225 routines in the set!
On another note, I love Try Hoosiers Charming Chinese Challenge. That is a multi phase routine. And I have seen several Matrix sequences, where coins are produced, travel under one card, backfire, and go all at once. There are several around, but I don't a reference at the moment.
