Hello magicians,

After a 5 year break from Card magic, I'm very eager to get started again...
I was shopping on a Magic webshop when I came across this (cheap) video: Larry Anderson - Jaw Droppers.

As I'm merely interested in Card Magic, I wonder if it's worth the buy.
Do any of you possess this video? If yes, does it include sufficient card skills & tricks?

I've read a couple of mixed reviews, some stating that it contains a few gems, but others stating that it is a bit straight forward and not really tricking the audience...

Best regards,
Jeroen

If someone was new to magic, sure, great set.

Not knowing your experience with cards, it's hard to tell. Before your break, what card magic were you performing?

I was performing on the streets for tourists.
I never learned tricks that include gaffed or gimmicked cards, my philosophy was/is that a spectator can inspect my deck at any moment. The only exception to this rule was my 'invisible deck' as a killer trick at the end ;-)
My first teacher was the book 'royal road to card magic': mechanics, overhand shuffle, (under)cuts, palm, glide, DL, etc.
I also learned a lot from ellusionist's Brad Christian: top/bottom change, turnover pass, classic pass, force... but also checked Daryl & Michael Ammar.
Color changes are my weak point, I'm having difficulties mastering the bertram change & snap change for example.
My favorite tricks were The Biddle Trick, Dai Vernon's Triumph and some Torn & Restored trick (think Andy Garcia version).

Jroen, I'd say you're well beyond the Jawdroppers card material.

Okay, thanks for your opinion, I won't buy it then.

I have volume 2, tried to track down the company that produced the Jaw droppers DVD/ Visio, I want to copy them to sell at parties, need permission,

According to Larry Anderson himself, Magic Makers owns the rights.
