Hey.. plan to get into learning P**S, still very new.. in fact.. today is the FIRST day I "officially" get into this move.. watched Kaufman's On The Pass.. however, have some doubt.. when i do the move, it seems like the "selected" card will be moved with my pinky as well. its like.. my pinky got sanwiched with both the selected + the stack. any advice?

Hi Afoi,

Why not learn Steven Youell's 'Mongrel Pass'????

His handlings very easy and clean as well!

I am not saying Richard Kaufman's DVD Pass is not good, excellent as well!

But, I find that Steven's version with a few practices, you will get the hands on with it.

Just my two cents!

Andrew

how does it look like ? i can do hermann pass.. but as for those classic,riffle.. no way.... yet

Afoi, the classic or riffle pass, ya put my pinky more towards the backside and not directly under the pile of cards. (this means my pinky sticks out a bit and i apply pressure inward and upward and do the pass). this ensures my pinky wont stick. Hard to describe it. Anyway, continue to work on it... u will get it soon :)

Heh, the pass :) the first sleight I ever learned. Afoi, are you learning the invisible pass?

Hi folks,

Get the card classic of Ken Krenzel, many wonderful passes in that book. :P

Andrew

yes, there may seem like there's lots of method of doing the P**s but it all comes to the same idea and actually all kinda look similar...

invisible and riffle and turnover herman pass.. are the most common :P

I think Randy Wakeman has just released his DVD in teaching the Pass, I will try to find out this soon.

Andrew

Screw the pass...just do a double undercut!
lolz

yea..screw the pass.. i give up on practise ( so easily) due to heavy workload..

Hi Afoi,

I believe you can do the pass one day, but it's worth learning, if you can do pass, the execution of this sleight is very nice and elegance. ^_^

Andrew

Yeah screw the pass.....

but also screw the double undercut.....

hidden gems.....look up the "bluff pass"......it's less of a pass then you'd think it should be

otherwise side steals are another way around passes in a skillfull way...

Julius paid me to say this...

Again, Julius has the best spread pass that i've come across in person...
Invisible if u're on his right side....

There..done..$20 easily made..
haha just joking

Anyway, i think the top cover pass is indeed a very good pass..coz it's covered from both angles. Will spend time practising it during the hols

Hi folks,

Yeah! I am agree with Eric, Top Card Cover Pass act as a 'cover' when you execute this sleight. It's a killer sleight if you know what I mean.

If you want to see my clip of performing this cover pass, PM me with your email address, I will glad to send you my clip. ^_^

Andrew

I recently just started practicing the pass again :D the invisible pass, mind you.

Andrew, you inbox is full lol i acnt PM you my email to have the performance vid of your pass ^_^

Hi Andy,

Sorry for that! I have just viewed 10 over PMs, just cleared some already. :o

Yeah! You can send your PM. ^_^

Andrew

Wow! great cover pass you have there Andrew!!

It was a nice idea to pull the cover card slightly higher during the motion to cover all angles.

Thanks!!

hermann for me. sometimes i cheat and do a fake pass (pinky flick thingy, i forget the real name).

Top Card Cover Pass sounds good ley...

However, does this pass have any angle weakness?

For eg. the weakness of invisible pass is on ur left...does Top Card Cover Pass have any? Or does it have "something" that u need to watch out when u execute it?

:P

Dear Zhuanan,

Good questions. ^_^ - I think the top card cover pass very cool if you see from the front, but for me personally, I don't think Pass has BAD ANGLE.

I have been watching Peter Duffie executing the pass with ease and beauty from any angle, but wow, I would say his pass is awesome. I don't know what words should I use to describe my eyes watching him perform. :blink:

I am now using Peter Duffie's Riffle Pass whenever if I have the chance. ^_^
