I had always dreamt of getting this, and I would constantly try to figure out how he does it by
constantly pausing the video over and over, with no success. I literally just gave up and bought the
dang DVD, and wow! Eric explains his technique in immense detail and he shows it in slow motion
countless times and everything. I would recommend to anyone. I have been practicing probably 3-4
hours a day, and after two days I already have it down. Awesome DVD! Stop guessing and buy it!

As a beginner, the retention technique is very hard. If you are a magician who is unfamiliar with
coin magic, you should think twice before purchasing this trick. If you are experienced or skilled,
this should be easy for you but you still need a bit of practice. Overall, I great effect if you
master the technique.

I am a big fan of knacky coin magic, so this DVD was right up my alley. The DVD centers around just
one or two techniques with several quick tricks and routines that utilize them. The routines were
very clever and visual with clear explanation. However, due to the fast and angle-proof nature of
the move, the retention vanish is hard to teach and it'll take some time before I'm ready to try
performing it. It's also important to note that it works much better with a dollar-size coin than a
half, and a quarter probably wouldn't work at all. Finally, I think the DVD was overpriced for the
amount of content, and someone who's just looking to get into coin magic would be better off getting
something else.

Nice ideas ,but in my opinion the central technique wasn't broken down enough it shouid have been
expounded upon much more then what was presented ,so back to your own choice of retention vanish
,its still worth getting for the routines
