Hello, I saw my master do The Pass a dozen of the times. I have been practicing it for 1 or 2 weeks now. Just wantta ask a better way to practice. Is there any instruction video that I can study?

I have been practicing the pass for years and could not seem to muster enough guts to do it in actual performances up until I met Richard Kaufman and saw him do it in front of me. Richard was kind enough to give me a hands on instruction on it . I studied his video further and now I use the pass regularly. Watch his video closely and carefuly breakdown the motions. I must add that this is not a move that the spectator can really burn his eyes on, although the masters can do it even with hawk eyed spectators. A little misdirection in the form of eye contact with the spec is nescesary. It could also be done on the off beat. Sometimes patience helps. don't rush to do the pass. Again I sugest that you study Mr. Kaufman's video and really break it down and understand the whole process.

As mentioned above, Kaufman's DVD on the pass is a great recourse. Try to devide on of your decks into two piles and Scotch tape both of them, learn the fluid motion of the move in combination with tilting your hands, and practice infront of a mirror - it helps alot.

Of course it baits the question, why bother? Do you have a routine that requires using that particular slight? If so, learn it in the context of the routine and figure where natural misdirection comes into play. If not, don’t bother! Learn something you are going to use.

I will be as bold to say that EVERY card magician needs a control, and the pass is a great and (if well performed) invisible control - leaving nothing but magic to the specators imagination...
