Utility Moves?

wZEnigma · Nov 16, 2009

I'm looking for some card utility moves that are applicable to all tricks and may make way for new sleights. Any resource on moves would be great. Some sleights/moves I'm looking for:

-False riffle shuffles
-Top Change (considering Dave Williamson)
-Double Lift (convincing ones)
-Any general utility move
-Useful and applicable

So if anyone could help me, that'd be great. I do have Kostya Kimlat's Undercover Switch and Ninja 2 from Ellusionist, so those are two you can forget about right off the bat.

Thanks in advance guys.

I am a huge fan of Ben Earl's work and on his DVD's there is a great in the hands false riffle shuffle and a Very nice double lift.

D ICE R, are you talking about Past Midnight? That's a good bit of change.

For a really ellegent and convincing double lift Joel Paschall has one which he teaches on his Believe DVD and I use it in all suitations now, unfortantly for you it's not sold seperately.

Spread pass- OnDemand It only 4 dollars

Death to the double undercut-1 on 1, even cheaper its only 3 dollars.

Fan Control- It only 5 dollars and you can control the card to the bottom or top. Almost forget it is a 1on1.

DTTDU is great.

I'm looking into the Spread Pass much.

And the Fan Control looks meh. I'm pretty sure I know the method. I like DTTDU better personally.

Thanks so far guys! Keep it up!

Hey man, I have the spread pass On Demand and it's pretty good. It's a very deceptive pass when done well. Just be sure to practice it, I'm still practicing mine. I mean come on, 4 bucks is a steal. The teaching is okay, but the angle remix at the end is extremely helpful.

Cheers

Yes I was on about tht DL. If you know it then great!

4 for 4 switch as a 1-on-1 or in TOOC, Undercover Switch is a good alternative to a DL in the right situations, diving board double

Guy Hollingworth has a very nice in the hands false riffle shuffle which he teaches in "Drawing Room Deceptions"

Yeah Spread pass is really a steal, been praticing it for 2 months now.

I bought Fan Control because it fool me when I was in magic for a month so I bought and until this day I'm gald I bought it. But if you know it then thats good. Also the undercover switch looks good, but they rise the price to 5 dollars!..... Sorry I'm really cheap.
