“In my opinion, Daryl is one of the smoothest and (most) entertaining close-up performers I have ever witnessed.” –Dai Vernon

“Daryl is truly entertaining, highly skilled, and too smart for his own damn good.” –Phil Goldstein

“One of the most inimitable, charismatic performers of our time. Such enthusiasm, combined with carefully selected, powerful effects, provides knowledgeable magicians as well as laymen a rare glimpse at a deceptive, delightful, portable Disneyland.” –Michael Ammar

"Daryl has managed to avoid the holier than thou attitude that seems so prevalent among the “stars” of magic.” –Paul Harris

“Truly beautiful magic.” –John Cornelius

“Daryl was funny, Daryl was serious, Daryl was one of the nicest, most polite and professional lecturers that we have ever had the pleasure of hosting. I highly recommend that anyone who can see Daryl’s lecture, do so.” –The Linking Ring World Champion magician, Daryl, is known by his peers around the globe as “The Magician’s Magician” because he represents the best of the best in the highly specialized world of close-up magic. Daryl was voted by readers of MAGIC Magazine as one of the top ten most influential magicians of the twentieth century! Daryl’s sleight of hand technique is flawless, his magic is original and astonishing and his presentations are hilariously entertaining! Daryl has earned just about every major magic award imaginable including a gold medal at the F.I.S.M. World Congress of Magic (which is equivalent to the “Olympics” of magic) and SIX Academy Awards from the world famous Academy of Magical Arts (The Magic Castle) in Hollywood, California!

In 1999 and 2000 Daryl’s New Millennium World Tour saw him performing and teaching his original creations in more than 250 cities, in 25 different countries. But Daryl says “One of the greatest honors of my career was to be selected to perform for the President’s Inaugural Candlelight Dinner in Washington D.C.” Daryl was also a resident headlining act at Caesars Magical Empire at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas for seven years, before settling in the Sierra Foothills of Northern California. Daryl now concentrates on performing for select private and corporate functions, producing and marketing his original magical creations and instructional DVDs and providing personalized tuition to magicians and magic enthusiasts around the world.

What can I say it's Daryl, DARYL the F.I.S.M. champ and he shares his pet routine with you. Not only do you see a full near 10 minute performance of it but you get almost a full hour of expert instruction. He covers it all, the size of the ropes, how to finish the ends, everything. The best part, Daryl's visual aids make it easy to follow along. Some may say that, "It's just Professors Nightmare." and those people are missing out on what could be a killer routine with proper practice, study, and adjustment to fit character. So if you like Daryl's Rope Routine already, get this, if you want to learn a routine that packs small and plays big, get this, or if you just enjoy great magic done well, get Daryl's Rope Routine.

Excellent Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on November 29th, 2018
Many years back I bought the pamphlet-and-pictures version of this routine, and performed it in my shows. Years later I bought the Expert Rope Magic DVDs, and was glad to see the explanations on the DVD.

Much more recently I saw the Penguin Live lecture, and while he presented the routine there as well, it didn't go into enough depth.

I just got this download. I felt silly because I already had two good versions, and I already knew the routine.

After having watched this through, I feel that the depth and teaching in this version was best of all. He went into several little details that made a big difference. My only gripe is that the lighting could have been better in the studio, but as a fan of the routine and of all things Daryl, this is the best version.

I have always loved Daryl's Magic and am really enjoying learning this routine. Daryl was not only an incredible entertainer, and crowd pleasing magician-he really was an excellent teacher. I highly recommend this DVD.

The most magic for the money! Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on March 10th, 2017
The download was easy and Daryl did a great job in teaching one of his signature pieces. It took me a solid week to begin to get it to muscle memory. I am know working on putting my own patter to it...as you should do. Once done, you have 10 minutes of a pack small-play big gem. R.I.P. Daryl. BTW, his exact handling pretty much requires Daryl's Thick Rope, still available at Daryl.net.

Daryls rope routine Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on May 25th, 2015
This is a wonderful routine from start to finish. My only gripe would be is that the rope must be exactly the same as he uses in order to do all parts of the routine , and he tells you that but doesn't go into details of where to get hold of it. I can only find loose braided hollow cotton Anne he says it should be tight braided quite heavy and cotton. So there we are If any of you out there know where to get hold of this and what it's called do please pass it on to me.

Great Instruction Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on August 1st, 2023
I wanted to learn the "Professor's Nightmare" routine. My friend said I should look into Daryl's Rope Routine. He was not wrong. It was like finding the right tool for the job. If you're looking to learn rope magic, I can't imagine a better place to start.

Daryls Rope Routine Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on January 29th, 2023
Daryls work and tutorials are well known. I met him at one of our magic club meetings(Omaha Magical Society). This routine is very well explained by him. He discusses in great detail with good close up shots , although a bit dark at times, and he adds some nice nuggets of tips and nuances. I like his explanation of the false count and how to make it work seamlessly as I've had trouble doing it well. I like how it's broken down into manageable segments and how each phase can potionially be used in separate routines. Im still working through all the phases so haven't done the routine from start to finish but I'm enjoying the lessons. Highly recommend even as a novice rope worker.
