Just wondered if anyone has seen the DVD "Elegant Cups & Balls" by Rafael Benatar, and what they thought about it. I was considering purchasing it, and would like to know.
The ad I saw is HERE. Thanks! SETH

He does the Garcia routine for the most part. The routine is outlined in The Very Best of the Cups and Balls book by Frank Garcia.
It is a very good routine. Mobius |

I have the video that preceeded the DVD and it's very good. I'm not sure if this new DVD is just a straight copy of the video (renamed). Either way, his routine is well-structured and also taught well with a bit of philosophy about the C&B thrown in. If you already have the Ammar DVD and the Greater Magic Teach-In DVD, I think you'll find this a useful addition to your DVD library.

I have six locks on my door all in a row. When I go out, I only lock every other one. I figure no matter how long somebody stands there picking the locks, they are always locking three. Elayne Boosler

Thanks, guys, for the information.
I have Garcia's book and am familiar with his routine, so this sounds interesting. SETH

I haven't seen it but I saw Rafael perform at the world magic semenar to compete and he won. His performance was very funny and he is a great performer so I am sure that the DVD is great.

Does anyone know if the routine is different than the one on his video "Cups and Balls Execution, Theory and Practice"?

Steve, I had not seen your comment. I never compited at the Desert Seminar. The only time I went was 2009 where I lectured, emceed stage the competition show, and took part in a C&B special event that Bill Palmer and Pete Biro put together. The other performers in that session were Johnny Thompson, Antonio Romero and Jason Latimer.

Sounds like someone needs the 1000-G Cups for their new routine!
