Thanks brother 🙏 silver dust by Ben Harris was the basis of a lot of my coin work over the past 45 years. Also RIP to our hero David Roth. I started muscle passing coins for utility moves since I was taught the move by John Cornelius in 1980 in Las Vegas. I love your stuff I get to know what the names of some stuff I’ve been doing for years are but did not know the name.
My favorite use for the MP is to reach for a coin at left fingertips and pass a coin from right at last moment with little motion. Good for repeated production like the sylvester pitch with no need for momentum. Working on this take and load technique is what steered me away from doing the coin that falls up. I do like using the MP for coin through a glass door. Thanks for the uploads.
Amazing coin sleights!You make it look deceptively easy.A sign of extensive practicing.Coin magic has to be the hardest magic to do.I don’t think I’ve ever seen better coin manipulation anywhere.Excellent!You must surely be a professional coin magician!?
It's great that you're starting a new coin series. Because of your channel I've been giving more attention to coin magic and even tackling routines that a year ago i would never dare ( like Kainoa Harbottle " Another Flipping Three Fly" or " Misbehavin") so for that Thank You!! By the way the live yesterday with Jeff was great, the products are of an amazing quality, it's noticeable the amount of work that was put into it. Always looking forward for your next project. Keep up the great work and stay safe. Best of regards 😁👍
Before I watch the vid (I am a few days late on this one) I want to say that I am happy that you are able to have your beard again! For some reason, a beard suits you quite well. I was never quite able to adjust when you had to shave it. I'm not certain why I even have thoughts on the matter. But I am happy you are able to grow your beard again. Still waiting to hear some banjo! Now.... on to the video.....
@@RickHolcombe Very, very, VERY HAPPY to hear that! And I get it! I saw you have been uploading again these past several days, but just been a bit too busy myself to check them out. Going to play catch up over the next couple days! I really don't know why I have an opinion regarding you bearded one way or another. It just seems to fit your smooth style or something. I am HAPPY that things are going for you in a way that allows you to present your magic, and your style the way that is YOURS!
Thx for another great video Rick, love your stuff! Pls note that "l'homme masqué" (José Anténor de Gago) was actually from Peru, and moved to France to study because his parents wanted him to become a doctor...
@@RickHolcombe right on I have a oxf liberty and I've been wanting to start messing with them again but haven't. I don't think a lot if people use them anymore. Just havent seen anything for a while. Do you plan to get into more gaff stuff on your videos at all? Love the stuff you do already just thought I'd ask to see 😁
@@miked4152 Im always on the fence of what is exposure and what is teaching. I've received zero flak from what Im doing so far and I don't want that to change. I don't know if I could go too in depth on gimmicks, particularly the oxf or other specialty gimmicks. Although, I have shown a shell and a copper/silver in other videos, so I don't know. Need to think about it and what the video would actually be.
Greeting, saw the awesome Instagram Live with Jeff, that was so cool of you guys, and thanks for making there series. I can't tell you how much joy and practice I have gotten from these videos. Thanks Rick P.S. did you change your background recently, it looks different from the guitars in the background?
This is very Helpful 😊. I want to learn a coin Vanish (only one hand is used) in which a coin is held by Index finger, middle finger & by the thumb. I don't know name of the Vanish.
Im not sure how to do that without just fully exposing the gimmick. I want to maintain myself as more of a teaching channel. That's not to say Im opposed to the idea, just not sure how to approach it.
you gotta cut your videos down.. i know your content is great but my add is so bad id rather get slapped repeatedly then sit and watch the entire 20 minutes. short and sweet. quick intro. cut to bullet point outtline of lesson, demonstration and maybe some practice tips. your great at coin tricks i know that and your also a better teacher than the majority of people on youtube.
@@RickHolcombe lol im sorry i didnt mean to come across like it matters if i can sit through your video or not.. i meant what i said as a way to possibly attract more more viewers and to help your channel bc you are a great teacher. honestly your the only MAGICIAN i can recall to point out the correlation between practising perfect technique very slowly and letting your speed build up over time. just as you mentioned in reference to learning to play guitar.
@@frankthoman4894 no worries! I'm aware the videos are long, but its because I would rather keep curious eyes away and only have dedicated people sit through it. I'm not here for more subscribers because I can assure you I make almost no money from doing these videos. I really appreciate you watching and commenting. This is why I make the videos, to help people who are looking for it.
@@RickHolcombe Just like all the great teachers I’ve been blessed to learn from, there is a method to your madness. I’ve always loved magic, but just recently I’ve decided maybe I should take it a bit more seriously so finding your channel was perfect timing. I’m actually an art teacher and am very passionate about not just teaching itself but really understanding how to convey ideas in a way that even someone who has no prior knowledge can immediately “get it”. Anyone can teach but it takes someone special and with passion to be great at it and well that’s you. I know that and I’ve only seen a couple of your videos. I look forward to learning all that you have to offer
