Well.. I'm not too sure of how many methods there actually are, but I haven't heard of all that many.

The question is...

What is your favorite way to do the jumbo coin Finale on a one coin routine (or for other routines alike)?

What pocket do you keep it in, which way do you change it?



Trying to explore other methods to see if I can find one I like more than the one I currently do as I'm not entirely happy with it. I would also like to hear your theory behind it or any other notes you have based on the jumbo coin production/change.

I personally keep it in my back right pocket. At the end, I turn my left side more towards the audience to hide the action of getting the coin in to Tenkai, then I return to my usual position standing and do a spellbound move over it. Coin in left hand, jumbo in right hand (Tenkai)

Thanks for reading and thanks in advance for responses! Smile

I usually keep mine on a clip inside my jacket. If not wearing a jacket the back pocket. You can also keep in tucked in your belt between your belt line and your body, even if in the front if you are wearing a jacket for cover. Shoot Ogawa produces jumbo coin from purse frame in one of his coin routines. There are many different ways you just have to research some more and experiment on your own...Howard

I go the David Roth route - tucked into the belt. Follow his instructions exactly and the steal is invisible.
I also forget how powerful the spider vanish and reproduction is at that point. I get a great reaction when I produce that coin again, which takes all heat off the other hand.

I'll either do the shuttle pass change or hang pien chen into their hands. Depends on the spectator; if they're going along for the ride, I'll change it in their hands. I've heard that person describe the trick to someone else and said the coin grew in her closed hand without me touching it!

My jumbo has no milling and is really hard to tenkai. Also, the ways I do it can be done COMPLETELY surrounded. I perform it in a high school where I'm surrounded by people taller and shorter than me - my angles need to be 360!

I use a hold out inside my jacket http://www.thecuckoosnest.com/zencart/ze......_id=1397 it also holds a bunch of coins for a misers dream final dump. The way it is designed, I can fill it with my misers dream coins then load the jumbo in the end. pulling out the jumbo will not dump the coins. it is a pretty sturdy "squeeze type" hinge.
