Hello, I was directed to this board by a friendly magician I met during a cruise in the carribean.

I am very interesting in card magic, sleight of hand techniques, and balloon twisting.

My exprience with card magic & sleights is very small. I have yet to cut a deck of cards consitently, but my success rate is improving with both hands. (I'd like to be able to perform all tricks using either hand as the "dominant" hand). I have just ordered "The Royal Road to Card Magic", and am waiting for that to arrive.

As for balloon twisting, I can make an unfortunate looking poodle, a bicycle/motorcycle, and what I believe is a monkey (only recognizable once one is told it is a monkey).
