Hey gang,

I haven't posted much in the last few months because I was working on a magic video (it took 1,902 takes- 1 to do the trick and 1,901 to find the right music. Wait, that doesn't make any sense...).

It's a version of Triumph that features not only a really cool method (thanks to Syd Segal, Jared Kopf, Charlie Miller and, of course, Dai Vernon) but also thoughts about structure, performance theory, and other buzz phrases people like to throw around (Commercial! Modern! Eye Candy! Real Candy!).

Check it out. If you have any questions feel free to ask. But I'll ignore you if you're wearing a vest with cards on it.*

*Fine, I'll answer your questions too. But I'm still jelause of your awesome vest.

This looks great Ben! This may be blunt...could this be done impromptu and right off the bat? Would a setup be needed?

No set-up needed. Someone hands you a deck and you go right into it. And it looks exactly like what you see in the video.

:)

This looks smooth.

I know this may be tough to gauge, but what difficulty level would you rate this?

Thanks.

Amazing work then! kudos to you Sexy Ben!

I'm sure Ben can, and will answer, but I'll chime in just in case. It's pretty dang easy. Not self working easy, but the method is very straightforward. Chances are if you can riffle shuffle you can probably do this. It's hard to say much without tipping it.

Hey Gang,

There are several other threads going about this routine, which include answers to some of your questions plus some crediting information that I had previously missed. You can check them out here:
