FALL • Cups and Balls

Swing Blade

Another of the finest, most commercial impromptu routines ever. Four small squares of paper are stuck to both sides of a table knife. One at a time, they are removed and the spectator sees them fall to the floor. The knife is shown clean on both sides, but with just a tap on a glass, and the four pieces of paper return to both sides of the knife. 

Dai Vernon’s Cup and Ball Routine

The master’s classic routine, along John’s variations, with added effects and deceptive techniques. You will learn not just new and novel moves, but important points of routining and misdirection. 

Wand spin vanish

Final Load Lesson

One of the most important techniques in the routine is the secret loading of the cups for the finish. John provides choreography and misdirection that will make it much more deceptive. Essential information if you do the Cups and Balls.
