TT. TT. TT. TT. TT. TT. TT. TT. TT. TT.

Together with Darwin's encyclopedia of TT Magic (3 DVDs).

If you're really tight on budget....get the 101 Tricks booklet by Royal Magic.

I'm a super-duper advocate of the TT... but if you are young, there may be a size issue.

It has nothing to do with developing skill... it's just hard to find a TT that fits a young person in the right way.

Vernet's Jr. TT... but it isn't sold here... that I am aware of.
Also, an FT might do the job of a TT for a small hand.

Anywho... eventually you should own one... no matter what kind of magic you do.

Totally agreed.

I was a card freak. Then came my first TT. Now i'm a TT freak.

Wheelson, I don't know how young you are and how big ur fingers are, but I'm sure theres a thumbtip out there waiting for you. Pop in to a few magic stores and you'll surely find one that's suitable.

I highly recommend Vernet Soft TT (hope it fits you) - the cheapest of my TTs.

I have two thump tips that are way to dark for me and I would like to incorporate them into a close up table hopping routine...Are there specific TT's that have a variety of skin complexions or is it possible to put make up on...Also I'm rather new to TT and this may be exposure but when you stuff something in it do you sneak it off of your hand and place it into the opposite palm while stuffing? That's how I do it and I think that's how it should be done....

I would suggest Darwins Encylopedia of TT magic Max. Alot of valuable information just waiting for you to discover.
