XCM

I've been into magic and manipulations for at least 6 years now. I stumbled upon the little sub-genre of object manipulation called XCM a few years back and have been doing it ever since. XCM stands for Extreme Card Manipulation and is defined as a branch of magic with playing cards that is devoted to the performance of card flourishes. Now, I wish that I had some OC to show you guys, but honestly I just do not want videos of my XCM online. BUT I do have a great video to show you that demonstrates some incredible XCM, check it out c:    (This video, after about 1:00, skip to about 2:30 :p)


If you'd like to check out some great magic stuff for sale, or even just some awesome, unique cards, check out www.theory11.com, this is where I buy just about everything magic-related from.
Like I said, I've been doing magic for quite some time now, so do expect a post on that to be coming soon, along with some OC again :D

Man, this would win me a bunch of bar bets. Gotta learn this one.

How many hours does it take to learn some of the tricks? Do you practice while watching movies or anything?

Austin said...

@Alexander, go for it :D

@AllenTesch, for a lot of the stuff it really only takes like half an hour to learn, but of course hours to master it. And the beauty of it is that its with cards, you can practice it when/wherever you want to!

I used to love this stuff.. Anything magic related at all. If I'd had the internet going for me back then, I'd be doing amazing things now. I just grew out of it and tired of not having the knowledge. :/
