I have seen quite a few routines for CBS. I like to keep things simple, so I do the most basic three phase routine. I saw Doc's routine but feel, as someone else mentioned that revealing part of the method to give a false explanation is not a good idea. It for me gets the spectators to focus on the method and takes away from the Magic. I have also seen Orient Express by Mark Mason. It is okay but there is something about it that nobody has mentioned. What if the spectator is colour blind. This has happened to me once while doing another routine. Just a few thoughts. I like CBS and it is one of only a few coin routines I do. Cheers!

Ungimmicked CSB routine in Rubinstein Coin Magic. I carry this with me every day. Since it is modular, I can extend the routine to make it longer if I choose by adding other CSB routines from the book.
S.E.M. (The Sun, the Moon, and the Earth) is a sun and moon routine unlike any other. Limited to 100 sets, here is the promo:

My favorite is Gary Kurtz' routine Trio in Three

Yes he uses a 2 copper 1 silver. I don't have that Gaff and use CSB. There is like 1 split second that you have to cover something but the rest is good for the most part. It is a great Routine.

I'm a coin magic newbie.
My wife has seen me practicing several various routines over the past few months, but I've never performed any for her. Last night, I decided to show her Paul Vigil's CSB routine with the addition of beginning and ending the routine with a Quiver purse. I'm using a Kennedy half CSB set from Mark Mason. This is a trick I've been working on for a couple of months. Things went smoothly (except she immediately went to grab the Quiver after I removed the CSB coins...note to self about placement of the purse). I completed the final vanish, which is perhaps the trickiest move in the routine, and went to produce the coins from the Quiver purse on the table. The wrong chamber opened, and the gaffs poured out. Rats. Not a good beginning to my coin magic. My confidence was dented for sure. I may simply remove the Quiver from the routine and perform it exactly as Vigil does. |

I find a lot of it is about muscle memory and consistency. Make sure the quiver is always down in the same orientation with the chamber in the one direction. Make sure your gaffs and extras are always in the same chambers (respectively). That way, you never have to worry about thinking which one is where ... it just is.

Absolutely agree, and that’s how I rehearsed it many times. Same set-up, placement, and release.
This is not new in my lifetime. I have succeeded despite many embarrassing failures along the way. |

Sure, I realize it's not a new concept. Mostly just emphasizing how - even when you get distracted by a spectator reaching for the wallet - it's important to keep the relative position of things so you can resume as before.

I also use a quiver for eg Hopping Halfs - As well as the above tips I make sure the normal coins are in the automatically (easier) opening compartment

If you’re worried about losing track of which side is which, just put a small mark on one side of the Quiver.

“Quiver” is embossed on one side, and I always lay the purse down with the trigger tab facing the same direction.
