What would you say is the best DVD on the pass? I have many books on the subject, as well as a few DVDs that dabble with it briefly. I use the riffle pass a lot as taught by Dingle, but was just wondering what all there is out there. I heard Kaufman's is good, and mixed feelings about Randy Wakeman's DVD. What do you like, or recommend as far as a quality teaching DVD on various passes?

Kaufman and Ken Krenzel are excellent sources.

I learned from Richard Kaufmans video. Has that been released on DVD?

Yes it is on DVD.

Ken Krenzel´s Tape is such a waste of time and money,go for Kaufmans Tape!

I learned from and thought Pete Cassford's DVD Pass With Care was excellent.

Kaufman is a classic. I heard good things about Carney as well . .

Perhaps I'm missing Carney's work on this in my library, but I don't think he teaches much on the pass. He does have some good tips in the Book of Secrets and on the Chicarnery DVD, but mostly it's about adding some touches to make it a bit more deceptive (ie: polishing the skills you already have). For a good introduction and proper mechanics I'd go with Kaufman first.

I have Cassford's DVD "Pass With Care" and think he does and excellent job teaching this sleight.

I liked Richard Kaufman's DVD and Cassford's DVD "Pass With Care", both are well filmed with clear instructions and tips on performance.

As previously mentioned, I am going to say kaufmans dvd titled The Pass. Great teacher and teaches many types of passes. also has a few tricks utilizing the pass. just being able to see him do it is very helpful!

I guess I should just get the two I mentioned then. Doesn't seem to be a whole lot out there as far as DVDs go.

Check the Card College and the book of Gary Ouellet first if you can, to learn the basis. And after the video/dvd from Richard Kaufman is a good source to master the technique.
Best regards.

As I said previously I do have a lot of info in text on the pass, Card College included; but was looking for the best DVD out there to use as a visual reference. I don't think I have Gary Ouellet's though.

Gary Ouellet's book about the Pass is one of the best out there. It also include The Asher Twist. If your main objective of using the pass just to control a card to the top, I recommend you to use side steal instead. Side Steal Declassified by Paul Cummins is a great DVD to learn from.

I also saw on my RRTCM DVD set they go over it some, just not very in-depth as a DVD solely dedicated to the pass would.
