Let's learn the "Chop Cup" *including my NEW routine 

Don Alan was incredible. The double final load especially, was impeccably performed. So quick and smooth.

Here's a funny consideration about the small chop cup fitting inside a larger. Without spoiling anything, my smaller cup is compelled to evacuate when placed inside the larger cup. Something to take into consideration as that particular placement is gonna be totally random upon construction of the gimmick.

Thanks Doug,wishing you all of the best.

Lot of respect for your kindness! Thank you!

Thank you very much for this great session and all the great stuff you teached us!

That's an awesome version Doug! Thank you for sharing All the best to you and your family! And the rest of our kindred spirits watching!

Wow Doug! You are truly such a great gift to the magic community. Thank you!

Great routine. Thanks for sharing your expertise, Doug!

Fantastic, such a great finale for Back to School Week!

Perfect timing. Just showed up on my feed. Ran and got my chop cup and tried it out. Cool. Expanding!

Doug, just found your channel. YOUR routine is simply Great!! Super visual, fast-paced, and a powerhouse finale! Bravo!! Many thanks!! Subscribed!!

After I’ve purchased mine I’ve been looking around for routines and moves ect; so glad I found this

Great stuff, Doug! Hope it led to a great birthday weekend.

Thx for the tutorial and ideas 👍

Happy Birthday!! Missed the live stream, but always watch later if I miss.

Thanks for sharing! I just wanted to add that my TCC set works perfectly. Been using it for a few years.

Thanks so much for posting this Doug! I just subscribed to your channel ! Great video. The chop cup is one of my favourite close up effects. I have the Leo smetsers stainless steel mini chop cup with his monkey fist balls. Your video has gave me a lot of ideas ! Thanks!

Thank you for talking about the chop cup one of my faves! Might look into getting a tcc cup

Hey, sorry I came in late. I will definitely be watching the replay. What an amazing back to school week! I will definitely be using some of the coin palms in busking for sure. Speaking of busking, I am taking the stripper deck out for the first time this weekend. Have a blessed weekend! And see you next week!

I've been waiting for this video for a while...I feel like you made this one just for me Doug, thanks so much for sharing this...I haven't watched yet but I know it's gold!

Happy really belated birthday! Love your vids, (including your busking vids) I have various chop cups, the TCC, Axel Hecklau's Just a Cup, Adam Wilber's Cups and Beans.. the hardest thing was coming up with a final load that would be unique, which might still not be.... Keep up the great work!

Nice vid. Very informative. I have a set of those Legend copper cups I bought from you. I just realized that I would happily have paid an extra upcharge for one, or better yet all three of those cups to be gimmicked like this. The complexities of Cups and Balls routines exponentially higher number of routines I could do would offset almost any additional cost.

Amazing.

Your always brilliant Doug. But wow you really are a class apart. Have a great 54th. Hope you have an incredible weekend.

You are my Hero 🙏🎩

The best one ever !

I have the tcc leather chop cup balls that were included and they work fine but the problem is the magnet is a cylinder, therefor only works on certain sides

I own the same leather cup, brown version, and luckily my original ball is good enough. I also own the small ickle pickle cup, but I never thought of combining the two cups - that's a nice idea, so thanks a lot! And I own the large ickle pickle cup which is big enough to hold a full size 7.5 cm baseball. I found some very cheap ones with nothing printed on them that look exactly like the Smetsers balls, but the size difference is really baffling. As a gag I use a ball pump to pretend to very quickly pump up the small ball through the cup.

The TCC balls I got where absolutely perfect in strength.

Happy Birthday!!!!

5000 chop cup videos couldn't convince me to spend time on it. One little clip and now I wanna do it haha

Hope you and your wife have a wonderful birthday celebration.

Great tutelage as ever..

Happy Birthday, "Young Man"! LOL

When I first saw that short, I was not shure if my amazement was stronger, or my entertainment :) I think you shouldn't have explained the routine after you explained all the steps and mechanics you need for it. And big thanks for that as well

Thanks just subscribed

Leo Smetsers (not Semester) very nice Dutch guy - I talked with him over the phone once.

Damn, Don Alan is fantastic. I had to watch it a dozen times before I figured out how he was loading the big balls. I still can't figure out how he loaded the tiny ones. Haven't watched your tutorial yet. I may skip it to enjoy the mystery!

Nice

These reval learning vids should be behind a pay wall for members

I do my chop cup routine with a gaffed paper Starbucks cup and two magnetic Morgan Silver Dollars.

Do you use Wilbur set on the street? I was really excited and bought them but find the final load holdouts just are no good on the pitch. Do you use a different holdout? Hoping my new ambitious card parlour plus pouch can hold them upright. This has been one of my favorite posts you've made, now if we can only get a wand manipulation video on par with it.... Smilesotheylikeyou

I have the tcc cup. I lost the balls. I’ll pick up some Leo red ones!

I saw a great pool cue wand and Billard ball chop cup on ebay, know anything bout that set? Maybe tcc will recreate it, and release it a decent price. What chop cups and three cup routine that are similar to the pure cups design at a middle road price tags o you recommend? Do you market magic? I’d sit down with ya. Smilesotheylikeyou

Will these Leo semester balls with the tcc cup work with the “through the hand” method?

Happy birthday! Say hey to my man Lyle.

R the monkey fist balls the best ones ?

Your video (out-of-synch) is ahead of your audio - lighting is smooth & clear - Cheers!

I noticed he was wearing one of the V rings on his pinky I noticed a lot of magicians wear those today.

Scott Alexander does it inside the hand of the spectator : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-c3NzbRWyyiA.html

I actually found out by accident and created a routine years ago with the an extra cup. I wish this wasn't shown...

audio slightly out of sync here.

Advice: just get a -- ring.

It's sad that very slightly off color jokes are so offending to young women these days.
