Props are great love the coins so much I bought 3 sets. That said the real issue with this production is the horrible explanation of the method. I don’t know if there was a time frame they were working with or Mr. Hooser was just “explained out” after teaching this for years.
You can read between the lines as it were but someone completely new may have a difficult time following.
I have been doing this routine since it was originally released through Kohler magic 10 or so years ago and the explanation by Mr. Hooser there is far superior to this iteration.
So, props good teaching meh.
Get the Kohler release for a great explanation and get this one for the fantastic coins!

I have been performing this now since it appeared in DesTROYers, then picked up the Kohler video to see all the additions that were made to the effect since the version in the book.

My question is, since you are obviously familiar with the Kohler release, regardless of what you think about the quality of this release, and other than the coins and ribbon, are there any major differences between the content of this video and the Kohler video? Have there been any significant updates, other than the table ending seen here (which is very good but hardly a difficult thing to make the leap to), which make it worth getting?
