Looks like Troy Hooser's Extraordinary, but way better.

If what Homer teaches is a 3 coin sequence, then it probably would be close to the old performance video. Really great. I could almost do it.. LOL...

Coin Two is based off of Troy's Extroydinary which I put on video for Troy.
Homer's routine is a fantastic version that in my opinion raises the bar. The sequences are very different.
Much like 3 Fly the coins vanish while held at the fingertips in much of the routine.

Homer goes into detail not normally seen in magic DVD's. It's a real lesson that leaves nothing to the imagination.

So while it's easy to say routines like this have been around for a long time and that's true I'm telling you that nothing that's come before is better or taught more completely.

I've been doing the routine since Homer taught it to me years ago but the DVD showed me a lot of little points that make all of the difference in the world.

Hi Bob, have you tried some of that style of "coin plucking" with a volunteer?

The productions (from his old video) look great and got me wondering if that mechanics could be applied to radically update the miser's dream effect using a volunteer or two.

I will tell you this, the man sure knows how to sell! I just had a look at Mr. Liwag's trailer and it looks fantastic! I admire his style and much more. He has a way that makes his material look so animated, suspenseful, dynamic, arousing and exciting you just have to get it! I have no idea what "CoinTwo" is all about from this trailer, but the trailer definately inspires me want it, even though it really exposes very little of what he is offering.

I have "CoinOne" and if that is any indication of what "CoinTwo" is like I will have to get "CoinTwo" also. "CoinOne" was fantastic and I expect "CoinTwo" will be also. I have practiced "CoinOne" daily since it was introduced to the free market and have had nothing, but great results in my performances of it to the general public, of course, I have added my personal touches to it, but essentially it is the same basic routine and I love it. It gives me confidence "CoinTwo" will be of the same caliber, I can't wait.....
Where I go, so do my coins.....

Tedski, as no-one has the DVD yet, you won't be able to get a sure answer. But I reckon you'd get pretty short odds with 'yes'. Just off the top of my head.

The trailer said 2 routines. Does anyone know what the second is?

I heard there was one gimmicked and one ungimmicked routine. Pretty sure that it is true.

Hello,
There are 2 routines on the Cointwo DVD. The first is a visual 3 coin vanish at the fingertips based on a Troy Hooser routine. It uses the same gimmick as Coinone. The second routine uses no gimmicks but you need to wear a jacket. The ungimmicked sequence is similar to the gimmicked routine except it uses more subtle methods for each vanish. The routines are quick and the concept of the DVD is to inspire your own variations and make them fit your individual style and personality. The routines haven't changed much in 16 years, I thought there would be enough ideas in timing and finesse to warrant a DVD.
As for what some people have tried to call the "Liwag Subtlety":
I've never made claim to inventing this subtlety, (the Ramsay style display from Coinone). I feel my only contribution I felt I made was the combination of elements to acheive a unique looking vanish. The Ramsay style grip alone is awkward looking and invites suspicion. When combined with a French Drop and the appropriate right finger movement, you end up with an effective vanish. Just my observation.
Hope I answered some of your questions!

Thanks,
homer

Hi Elliot,
It will be at least a couple of days before the site is ready. I just shot and edited the final trailer late last night. I have to update the news section and double check all the technical aspects of the site. We've lowered shipping costs and provided a discounted bundle if you buy Coinone and Cointwo together. My web designer is swamped with projects but the site is almost complete. Thanks for everyones patience.

Thanks,
homer
