Beginners

Hey everyone! I'm dropping by to ask for your help. I'm pretty new to this, and I'm looking for a specific trick to learn more about, practice, and eventually add to my repertoire. Thanks in advance to anyone who can lend a hand! I'm also happy to help out where I can, even though my knowledge is pretty limited at the moment.

P.S.: Sorry about the image quality.

I recently found out there are two main playing card sizes: poker size and bridge size. I've been practicing Cardistry moves with bridge-sized cards 🥲, but it seems poker size is the standard and what's used most often for quality decks. Am I right about that? Do you know if I'll have any trouble adapting to the new size, and if I'll be able to do all the moves without a problem with enough practice?

It's an absolute blast! Yesterday at El Retiro, I did it with three girls. Sounds a bit weird, but give it a try—you'll crack up.

What do I do when I'm controlling the spectator's card and they ask to shuffle? I can't let them, but if I say no, it'll look suspicious. I've thought about other techniques, but this trick doesn't allow for a key card, a force, or any other type of technique. Thanks a lot!

Hey everyone!

Let me set the scene: when I'm sometimes performing a trick for my friends or family, my brother is always amazed, and he's been asking me for a long time to teach him a really easy one so he can perform it for his friends.

What's a cool, easy, and simple trick I could teach my brother to practice at home or perform for his friends?

Thanks!

I'm pretty new to magic, and whenever I'm about to do a trick, I get really nervous and mess up my controls, and the trick turns into a disaster. Any solutions?

Thanks

Hey everyone!!

So, someone messaged me privately once (in this club)... it was a video from a while back. I remembered it and came looking for it, but I can't seem to find it. I checked my profile and inbox, but it's not there. Does anyone know how to help?

All the best and happy magic!!

In May, I've got a show coming up for my sister's First Communion. My main challenge is figuring out how to make sure all the guests enjoy it. I have several tricks already, plus some I'll be getting as gifts for the performance. If anyone can give me ideas for routines or suggestions using these effects: the Svengali Deck, the Al Koran Deck, a bunch of card tricks, Chameleon Cards, the Linking Rings, The Bite, Matrix with coins and cards. Any additional trick suggestions would be awesome too! Thanks.

I'm reading 'The Grand School of Card Magic, Volume 1.' I don't understand the top packet control (the in-jog shuffle

Hey everyone! As I mentioned, I'm pretty new to the world of magic. I just got my first quality deck a few days ago and learned Oil and Water, which has been going well. However, I feel like I'm still missing a lot of technique and other skills. So, I'm wondering, what good tricks do you recommend to help me progress on this challenging journey?

Thanks in advance!

I'm having an issue. I'm 11 years old, and a deck of cards is pretty expensive for me. Does anyone know a way to remove signatures, or can you recommend a good, affordable deck?

Hey everyone, I'm practicing my false transfer (coin magic), and I was wondering if you could give me some tips, as I can't quite get it right.

PS: For the false transfer, is it better to hold the coin with the thumb or in a finger palm?

Thanks!😄😄😄😄
