Hey Peter... I Dropped A Few Messages On Insta Asking About Your Book... I Think It Might Have Gotten Lost In The Thousand Messages You Would Be Getting Everyday... Is There A Way To Get In Touch With You...? Would Love To Talk About That Book... :)
jordan griffiths you can make one yourself grab some acetone or the product that girls use to remove fingernails paint and just use a piece of cotton and erease the ink from the card
I'm pretty new to the whole magic thing and I rarely performed tricks in front of strangers, but it's incredible how much more confidence I have when performing with the double backer as a backup in the box.
I loved this, If you want to add a little more flair, I like to use a fan to flip over the card its great cover if you want to swap the facer back onto the surface immediately after. Just cut the chosen card from the bottom to the top whilst you ask them to try to flip it over again :) Performed this a few times and I love it because its just so effortless, staple trick!
I have such respect for Peter Mckinnon, and after watching this video it gave me motivation and sparked an idea to make my own variation of this trick! Thank you!
Wouldn't it be crazy if you shuffled the double back in after top changing and then told them to look for their card and then they see it's not there but the double backer is there and then they flip over their card?
The double backer is almost as awesome as the Blank Card. I love the "Find The Queen" Trick with a Blank-Card-Reveal at the End. Someone saw through my Trick and said look, you have there one card mo-Oh shit, what's that?" and everything was fine :D
The trick was great, and it's very fun, but honestly that last little bit about recovering into the double backer is just so absurd. Definitely always playing with a double backer now.
Awesome tutorial Peter! Now finally some use for the double backers haha. I knew it could be a powerful tool just never bothered to take the time to see what all can be done with it, theses are great tips especially leaving it in the box for situations like that! brilliant!
Woah?!! Freaked out for a sec when you said your favourite card was the 2 spades at the start (was thinking of the same card when you said it) - #MINDFREAK haha
I hope that in the next episodes you give some tipps for being more professional in magic. Or other good tipps from your professionals to us hobby magicians
That's a Faro shuffle. There's a knack to it, but really what you're seeing is how you do it - you just line the cards up and apply a little pressure and they weave together.
Hey! I have a question for whoever can answer... I want to make my switches more silent. For example this Top Switch. It makes too much noise. Is there a way I am handling the card? Taking it? Can you point my to a video? A book? (@Chris Ramsay) or do I just need to practice a lot more? Any feedback would be appreciated
Nice idea. I need to find some good effects that exploit a double backer as I have a full deck of them in rider back and I've got one with almost every t11/ellusionist deck I've ever owned as well. Anyone recommend any real killers? Even if they're marketed or on a marketed download or dvd
Ellusionist oh yeah I know how that works, just looking for some other uses other than disproving a double turnover via being able to deal off the card face up because of the two backs
U can do a ton. Honestly, if you just sit there with one and see what you can do, a million things will pop up. Force a card with a different back. Get rid of a gimmicks card. Hide something on the back of a card. There are millions of possibilities.
Will you please make this type of videos in your channel....By the way I love your videos 😍😍😍😍 Just saw your latest video b-roll challenge between you and matti
I suggest buying a full deck of double backers if you are using bicycle cards. A full deck is only about $8 and making them takes quite a bit of time if you want them to be 'perfect'.
Torn Devil pretty sure this is 8 months late but I find a blank card to work just as good. I too dont have a double back but i pretty sure not many people have seen a blank card either so you could use on of those. If you dont have a blank card you can find videos of how to make them. Its really easy.
Many custom decks include them. Otherwise you can make them without too much trouble. Easiest way is to simply glue two cards together with a thin layer of rubber cement. That works, but it'll be thick. You can also split the cards and put two backs back on the glue, and it'll be the right thickness. Check out The Gaff Factory eBook.
That's exactly what I was thinking. I was literally just now going through the posts to see if someone else mentioned it before I posted it lol. Too bad I don't have any double backers though out of all the decks of cards I have.
Just dropping a small tip from me. If some people have problem with the top change you can switch the card with a simple double lift because its a double backer. You just have the double backer on top of the deck and when you get the card you put it face up on the deck and you do a double lift. This way when you turn it you get the double backer and the normal card is left on the deck. When you get the double backer you do the same thing and so on. Or you can use both the double lift and the top change so they wont suspect you of switching the cards. Just swapping between the two methods mid-performance. Hope it makes sense!
The only gripe I have about this is it being a tad bit unconventional because to perform the top change the hands have to come together just briefly and after doing it once or twice the spectators are going to obviously catch on to the fact that a switch is occurring since there is no reason behind the hands coming together every time the card is being placed onto the table.
Double Backers FTW!!!
Peter McKinnon :D
Peter McKinnon thank you!!!
Hey Peter... I Dropped A Few Messages On Insta Asking About Your Book... I Think It Might Have Gotten Lost In The Thousand Messages You Would Be Getting Everyday... Is There A Way To Get In Touch With You...? Would Love To Talk About That Book... :)
Peter McKinnon plz teach ur dribble....its so smooth ....nd ur fan looks awesome too😮😮
OMG, Pete, I didn't even realise it was you until I opened the description after watching... Awesome trick!
FINALLY! Some Double backer action!
Ellusionist peter knew you from your hands before your voice and send my greets to Arthur😂
???????????????????????????????????????????????
Ellusionist finally indeed
Would love to see some more blank face cards in your decks!
jordan griffiths you can make one yourself grab some acetone or the product that girls use to remove fingernails paint and just use a piece of cotton and erease the ink from the card
I thought this was Chris Ramsey tbh
incredible!!
I had the same idea 3 days ago,ellusionist can read my mind!
Yes.
Yes we can.
What's the card in my mind rn +Ellusionist
5 of hearts
Love that top change anyone who performs 2 card monte probably agrees
I came here not to learn the trick but to learn top change. This has to be one of the best top change tutorials on youtube.
I'm pretty new to the whole magic thing and I rarely performed tricks in front of strangers, but it's incredible how much more confidence I have when performing with the double backer as a backup in the box.
Genius as always Pete!
I first learned this in Peter's Burn After Reading. Such a simple, yet killer effect! Love it!
Great video, it amazes me how some of the most simple tricks can make such an impact. Thank you for sharing.
saw this first in the kings deck download and it just brought back a bunch of good vibes
That's awesome... Seriously, I never thought of the double backer in that way...
I loved this, If you want to add a little more flair, I like to use a fan to flip over the card its great cover if you want to swap the facer back onto the surface immediately after. Just cut the chosen card from the bottom to the top whilst you ask them to try to flip it over again :) Performed this a few times and I love it because its just so effortless, staple trick!
You sir, are awesome! And sometimes I get tears of joy in my eyes just by watching your videos. Wow is all I can say.
I have such respect for Peter Mckinnon, and after watching this video it gave me motivation and sparked an idea to make my own variation of this trick! Thank you!
Excellent!
Peter McKinnon is quickly becoming one of my favourite magicians
Thank you! Great idea for the double backer as a back up in the deck.
man I've been using this method for so long and I didn't know if anyone else knew and it turns out they do awsome you got a new sub man
I love it. Awesome ideas. I love double backs as well. So much fun to play with.
Good concept - and I love the bail out idea as well. Thanks for sharing this.
That was an awesome advise on making use of what we have in our decks.
HELL YEAH. Glad to see Peter on E teaching some stuff.
Wouldn't it be crazy if you shuffled the double back in after top changing and then told them to look for their card and then they see it's not there but the double backer is there and then they flip over their card?
That is legit!! Just started missing around with slight of hand and close up magic. As a hobby, this trick will help out a lot.
Have been waiting to learn this since I found out I could no longer purchase the original booklet. Super pumped.
great to see you doing magic Peter! Nice deck of cards!
My favourite card is also double back card. There is so so many tricks with that!
Very workable stuff for close-up, ill try this out, thanks for sharing.
Cool idea for a double-backer, peter.
Super cool, thanks Pete and Ellusionist 🤘
Pete is one of my favorites :) Thanks Peter!
The double backer is almost as awesome as the Blank Card. I love the "Find The Queen" Trick with a Blank-Card-Reveal at the End. Someone saw through my Trick and said look, you have there one card mo-Oh shit, what's that?" and everything was fine :D
I absolutely love this! Definitely will use it in my routine!
Accidentally went through your channel then BOOOM! You're one funny magician. Great tutorial!
Same idea for the box. You can use it for a super clean card to pocket
the double backer in the box tip is a life saver
Any videos of live performances of this trick?
I've actually been wanting an easy trick to do with a double backer because I haven't yet really looked into it. Thanks!
Now you've got two!
I actually tried it to a co-worker at lunch and got some good reaction
awesome idea, can't wait to try out a few routines, thanks!
so glad to here the word 'Ninja'. loved these on vhs!
Great idea...never thought of utilising the double like this
The trick was great, and it's very fun, but honestly that last little bit about recovering into the double backer is just so absurd. Definitely always playing with a double backer now.
Great video that trick with the box is very powerful
I love this. Now I gotta work on my too change!
Simple but very Awesome routine!
Thanx for that😀
Simple hits hard.
This channel is growing really fast
What Marlo move are you referencing at 4:30, you said Brad taught it in Ninja 2
Variation of the top change.
Zak Shah it's that part where Brad explains a couple of ambitious card routine moves
Great video, love your teaching style!
Awesome tutorial Peter! Now finally some use for the double backers haha. I knew it could be a powerful tool just never bothered to take the time to see what all can be done with it, theses are great tips especially leaving it in the box for situations like that! brilliant!
Throwing the odd paddle move into the mix, used minimally, might just send them over the edge.
What is the name of the Intro song?
RANDOM STOFF Darude Sandstorm.
That top change was so sweeeeet!!
Nice idea to expose the doublebacker, I subscribed!
Very nice. Gonna have to try that some time.
Curious to see you perform in the street as described with this routine
Similar to a Tyler wilson trick that he published in his last book. He just does it with s phone camera...
what do you mean
Man best tutorial till now
That was two very good tricks. Thanks.
Way cool! Great lesson.
Woah?!! Freaked out for a sec when you said your favourite card was the 2 spades at the start (was thinking of the same card when you said it) - #MINDFREAK haha
Spoooooooky
Black close up pads look so nice
Classy.
I hope that in the next episodes you give some tipps for being more professional in magic. Or other good tipps from your professionals to us hobby magicians
That was great fun! Learned a few things...
how the heck does he di that shuffle where he pushes the cards into each other and they go perfectly 1 after the other?
That's a Faro shuffle. There's a knack to it, but really what you're seeing is how you do it - you just line the cards up and apply a little pressure and they weave together.
Hey! I have a question for whoever can answer... I want to make my switches more silent. For example this Top Switch. It makes too much noise. Is there a way I am handling the card? Taking it? Can you point my to a video? A book? (@Chris Ramsay) or do I just need to practice a lot more? Any feedback would be appreciated
Practice! Make sure you're not just brute dragging the card across the deck.
Ellusionist thanks, kids! I'll keep myself on check
whats the name of the tricks in 1:52-1:57
Are you referring to the Faro shuffles?
i really like doing tricks using this card good work man
awwweessooommeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
thanks man... the routine yu told us all is mind blowing
Peter Mckinnon is just great
Really great trick. I just don't have a double backer
Nice idea. I need to find some good effects that exploit a double backer as I have a full deck of them in rider back and I've got one with almost every t11/ellusionist deck I've ever owned as well. Anyone recommend any real killers? Even if they're marketed or on a marketed download or dvd
The Trick That Fooled Houdini
Ellusionist oh yeah I know how that works, just looking for some other uses other than disproving a double turnover via being able to deal off the card face up because of the two backs
U can do a ton. Honestly, if you just sit there with one and see what you can do, a million things will pop up. Force a card with a different back. Get rid of a gimmicks card. Hide something on the back of a card. There are millions of possibilities.
AWESOME. I can use this in my ACR and other trick :D
Will you please make this type of videos in your channel....By the way I love your videos 😍😍😍😍
Just saw your latest video b-roll challenge between you and matti
Damnnnn it I bought the Kings deck for this!!! But good job anyway, these quality videos are bloody awesome
Link to your book please. I keep only finding magic the gathering stuff.
this trick is awesomeee !! i dont have a doubleback card though in my deck :/
they arent hard to make, just look up a tutorial :)
Kaigan Coldstream ok ill check thanks !!

Torn Devil the civil war bycicle deck has a double in it
Torn Devil pretty sure this is 8 months late but I find a blank card to work just as good. I too dont have a double back but i pretty sure not many people have seen a blank card either so you could use on of those. If you dont have a blank card you can find videos of how to make them.

Thank you for these!
Sorry I'm new but where would I get a double backer?

That works, but it'll be thick. You can also split the cards and put two backs back on the glue, and it'll be the right thickness. Check out The Gaff Factory eBook.
Ellusionist ok thank you!
Is the Elog no longer?
Ramsay's just changing things up a bit.
are u going to do a giveaway on that deck?
where did you get the mat?
next up and new magic... nice editing :D
Would it be easier to just do a double lift cuz you'll still be clean
Whatever works for you, you know?
That's exactly what I was thinking. I was literally just now going through the posts to see if someone else mentioned it before I posted it lol. Too bad I don't have any double backers though out of all the decks of cards I have.
cpcarroll71 you can just make one. Split the cards and rejoin them, or just tape 2 cards together
I know I'm three years late but what is your intro song?
What's that move or shuffle called from 1:54 to 2:02
Faro shuffle.
Ellusionist thanks
this is awesome can't wait
where can you find a top change tutorial
There are a lot of different sources of varying quality on the top change. I believe one of the best is Hugard and Braue Expert Card Technique.
Danny451 Fuentes Well, I appreciated your humour, if no one else did! 😀
that's a really cool idea
Whats That Shuffeling?
The Faro?
Just dropping a small tip from me. If some people have problem with the top change you can switch the card with a simple double lift because its a double backer. You just have the double backer on top of the deck and when you get the card you put it face up on the deck and you do a double lift. This way when you turn it you get the double backer and the normal card is left on the deck. When you get the double backer you do the same thing and so on. Or you can use both the double lift and the top change so they wont suspect you of switching the cards. Just swapping between the two methods mid-performance. Hope it makes sense!
What deck of cards is this?
That's an awesome trick !
The only gripe I have about this is it being a tad bit unconventional because to perform the top change the hands have to come together just briefly and after doing it once or twice the spectators are going to obviously catch on to the fact that a switch is occurring since there is no reason behind the hands coming together every time the card is being placed onto the table.
That's where audience control and misdirection come into play.
That's a real nice deck of cards, are those for sale or are they private stock?
They were, but discontinued.
Thank you!
donde consigo una baraja como esa ?
That one is not currently for sale.
Nice one Pete :)
Hey Ellusionist bought your 1800 deck today and needless to say its fucking amazing thanks, guys
Thanks for being part of the community!
