I have seen the DVD but I do not own it. You don't need big hands. I don't want to expose the trick so this is all I can say.

I won the DVD off of magic express radio a few weeks back, and i must say that im glad i did not pay for it. Most of the stuff is common sence and is very angle sensetive. Unless your really want to get into CD manipulations, which i doubt, do not get this DVD.

Now why do you think it's common sense? Once you learn about magic and about different sleights, most tricks will look like 'common sense.' There are some things on the DVD that is hard to find out just by watching the promo. There is a gimmicked CD which is a very ingenous gimmick. Some of this stuff can be done close-up, and you know how I know that? It's because I have used it close-up. The color changing CD and appearing CD are easy to use close-up.

You talk about watching your angles. With almost every sleight or even some gimmicked tricks, you will have to watch your angles. If you want to be a good performer, there are some things you have to overcome, like not doing a trick because you think the angles are bad.

If you don't want to get any knowledge in CD magic or even new sleights that can be used for more than CDs, then don't get this DVD. There is more to the DVD than what's in the demo, just look at the list in the description.

I have to completele disagree. The gimmicked CD is a waste of time, seeing how you need a perfect background, perfect lighting, and the people can be only in a 90' arc. There is no way to perform it on a stage, becuause there are to many varibles, you cant perform close-up because it just wouldnt work(sorry if i say more i'd be exposing) and it wouldnt work parlour because it would be to easy to spot. So ingenous, no at least not in my opinion. Some people may find a way for it to work for them, and thats good for you, this DVD just doesent fit my style and doesent have anything to do with any magic i perform. It may be different for you.

The clips are too short for my liking, I would like to see a full routine.
