Title: 3 Fly work
Post by: wildwildcat on July 22, 2015, 09:30:14 PM

Hey guys,

I've taken Ponta's 3 Fly handling, and am playing around with some little tweaks here and there...it's still a work in progress:

I hope you enjoy!

The handling isn't bad at all.  But there's one thing you're missing.  I know David Roth - probably the best coin man alive today, praised by the likes of Dai Vernon himself.  I watched him at a seminar some months back - and he had PATTER.  He was good, he was skilled, but he also knew to keep the entertainment level up with the right patter.  Give your trick a little story, have something to say while the action takes place.

Hello Don,

I've got patter in works-- the video above is a preliminary handling.  Ideally in a month or two, I should have a fully integrated routine with pauses, head turns, tension, relaxation, and patter.  Thanks for your thoughts!
