Title: Forget magic tricks
Post by: loldudex2 on November 05, 2011, 08:45:05 PM
Does anyone else ever stop doing a magic trick for so long they forget how it's done, and you CAN'T remember what it's called. I got like 20 Sankey DVDs from his BABOM and there was a trick where you fold a card in half, rip it in too, and I forget if that's the finale of the trick or the beginning.Does this happen to anyone else?

This always happens to me. If I don't do a trick for a while I forget. Some tricks I just remember, it's usually easier ones.

I also forget magic tricks that I haven't do for long.
I try to note all the tricks I see from DVDs, or books.
But I never read the note - too thick. Haha.

All I do now is remember the tricks I can do.
And watch a new one, try to remember only what I think it's good.
Not all tricks in DVDs.

I only try to memorize tricks I use.

Same here, I usually try to memorize about 5 tricks I like. Then, I try to remember 2 new ones. It all depends, some tricks hard or easy are just easier to remember.

What I hate about having that 20 Sankey DVD thing is that 95% of his tricks involve gimmicks that are just impractical to carry around at all times.

Yeah, I don't like that kind of magic too.
I just watched it for an idea to improve my tricks.

Like one of the tricks is a big piece of wood with a nail in it. When would I EVER carry that, and at what time would it seem normal to have that with me?
