I have been lucky enough to see Jerry and De'vo perform a 1 hour XCM presentation last year. It is what opened my eyes to a whole new world!
Just last weekend, I got to catch them again doing a 45 minute show downtown. Those guys know how to present a show!! Lights, big screens, audience participation! It was awesome! What I really loved was the presentational part of what they do. Especially Jerry's limitless move repertoir and how he weaves/blends the moves together and his comedic genious , and De'vo's evil presentation. and his crazy moves do to the xtreme of presentation They work very well together. lol I was extremely happy to hear that De'vo is putting a multi media presentation, much like what he uses in his pro shows as a bonus in the upcoming Cobra DVD! This way people that really want to perform for REAL people like Jerry and De'vo do, can do it also. They said it will have everything and all you need to adapt your own routine to follow the presentation. De'vo said that the first one will be basic enough so that most people interested in this art will be able to perform it. The best part is that you can use your own moves, and your own combos. I am very happy that they finally will release some of their presentation secrets. Up until now they kept most of it to themselves. Real performances is what I live for and how I feed the family. To be honest, I've been struggling with routining for laymen trying to follow what I saw the pros do, but I lack the direction. I've got plenty of moves, just need to figure out how to bundle it all together more efficiently. The presentation De'vo is releasing will hopefully help me understand and refine my performances, even though this will probably be a basic presentation(he said it will be between 4-5 minutes long) I will be able to make it as complicated as I wish by making my routines more complex to go with the presentation if that makes sense.lol. I hope someday Jerry and De'vo release more of there presentation secrects for the rest of us that love to perform. Also Jerry will be showing some of his full routines to include several 1-2 minutes routines and a 2 1/2 minute blindfolded routine!!!! UNCUT!! on his new DVD! He's doing this to show people what routine should look like in an Xtreme Card Manipulation show. This is going to do heaps of good for our artform, and I am happy to see that the superhandz/handlordz crew continues to push the boundries and further the art of XCM. Phantom |

When is Jerry's new dvd coming out?
Easy to do magic card tricks. You'll find a store full of street magic, levitation effects, and magic card tricks for.

It should be around 1 Sept = 1 October, but the only one who really knows is Jerry.

Aight! It's awesome that flourishes can actually be stand-alone acts, that can take up long periods of time. You can get sick of people doing manipulation acts that have no fiber or backbone, but with the right presentation and style, a flourish show will kick ass much as any magic show.

You are soo lucky to have seen this show...
You know what ? Next time, you should take a tiny camera with you, make a screener and share it on the internet |

Phantomace, could you tell us if Jerry only uses the material from the encyclopedia during his shows ?

Nope, Jerry has lots of other stuff, and his presentation is wicked! He could probably put out 4 encyclopedias.LOL
Also De'vo and Jerry do 4 handed XCM which killed me!lol Even Jerry's demos are cool. check the cupstacking world championship video to see his spring in the Superhandz booth for a bunch of people. I was there, Jerry rules! Like I said, real performances for real people. Most of the others out there just made flourish videos for the internet, these guys do this for real people all the time. As far as I know, they are the only ones that perform a real all flourish show in the US. But in Germany and Europe, there are many. Phantom |
