I followed your instructions _exactly_ and every time I did it, no matter how well, they always *knew* I was forcing a card on them. I don't mean to criticise, but I suspect the trick would work a lot better if you _don't_ write *force card* on the card. Just sayin'...
I know this video was made 3 years ago but I just wanted to say that this video really helped me take my magic to the next level. the single greatest easy force in my opinion is a variation of the last force in this video where instead of taking the force card from the top, you peel it off the bottom while under the cover of the fan. this one also works great because you can very easily peek the bottom card between tricks.
That subtle part with spreading the cards with the finger where they say stop is insane! It completely sells it. So good! Turn over pass after a selection, swingcut ”say stop”, riffle and then that move. Priceless faces! Thank you Chris!
The third is my favorite because you literally stop on the card when someone says stop. No skipping forward or dropping extra cards that someone could catch you on.
Riffle force is my favorite. Then I use the slip cut and criss cross force a lot as well. The criss cross is awesome. I think I learned that from one of your videos.
thanks for the tutorial chris those forces are simple yet powerful imo. Of course it will take time to play them off like you but still I can have some new basics now
Please do more card force tutorials and magic tricks :D Yesterday I told my friend that I'll start learning some card magic but I have to learn a few card forces before that. Now you uploaded a video about card forces. What are the odds for that to happen? :D
Chris, I definitely love that 3rd force as I'm just learning how to do these forces. But, I will practice the others as well. Thanks for such a Great lesson.
your such a legend, ive struggled with forcing cards ever since i started four years ago, i stopped but not im back :) thankyou chris ramsay for all your tutorials! as you say using other peoples tricks is like using tracing paper but these simple beauties have helped make my style actually worth while and not just card juggling haha!!!
Thanks Chris! I love the 3rd one. I do the classic force mostly, but sometimes it gets hard to do on certain people. I'm not a fan of riffle forces, but it's cool how well they work!
I use the second and third ones and are really effective. I actually prefer the classic force, which is almost undetectable but sometimes it fails, and when it does I do another trick with the new selected card and then use one of these to try the force again, it's flawless if you practice
Hey awesome work. Been cutting cards for about 3 months and I just learned something new!!!! I like it when the force card is on top, you kiddy cut and grab a break above the force. Then dribble. I have the spectator or would like the spectator to take the force too. Have them put it back- grab a break and pass the card to the top. Cheers mate! Great vids great attitude... Great teaching style 😎
I was looking through your channel just last night looking for some force tutorials and bam you hit me with these 3 that are so casual and fair looking. Spending the rest of the day perfecting them.
Jay Sankey does that last force. He starts counting them off like you do, then he pretends to get frustrated and says, you know what, just pick a card. :D
I have been using the last one for the most part. But my all time favorite is the one where you riffle through the cards with the faces facing the spectator and then simply tell them to choose a card they see. The one used in the beginning of the movie "Now you see me"
I’ve used all 3 of these for years and to this day they’re go to forces. With just a bit of practice it’ll be second nature and unlike the classic force, they’re 100%ers! TY for teaching these Chris! Magicians who didn’t know any one of these will love using them 👍🏻
You can always tell how practiced someone is by how they handle the cards in between the important moments. That is to say, even if I could perform these forces perfectly, in between the important bits I would be fumbling slightly with the cards while he is almost negligently smooth, because his muscle memory is so strong and fluid handling cards. It's impressive.
Thanks for the vid. The second force is so genious omg :D love it. A tip for the third force. For me its a looooot easier if the force card is on the bottom and when you spred the cards you just shove it over the fan and force it. Pretty the same youre doin but without the casualties bringing the top to the bottom while doing the fan.
I know it's a year later, but I saw this comment and am wondering if you could explain "when you spread the cards you just shove it over the fan and force it". I'm having a hard time envisioning this and would love to know since this seems sneaky. Thanks.
Chris i love you're natural style that is only you. im much older and been performing off and on since 1981. I must say it seems your a complete natural. I am impressed by you're style i have learned so much. THANK YOU
The third one is probably the easiest so I will start practicing that one Btw they all look amazing so thanks a lot man Can't wait for the Street Magic video
bro, your videos are so good. informative, very clear about the process and just love your style...your first video i watched was the snap change a few days ago, been practicing and am close to having it down fairly well. you just got a sub. big ups!
I really like this video because force is one of the most powerful skills that you can use to create tons and tons of different moves. You can say that you see through things, see the future, or like you read ppls mind. As far as your imagination goes, knowing how to perfectly perform a force can be your strongest trick.
Love that subtlety on the riffle force, I'll work on it. I am an amateur magician and the riffle force is my go-to. Laymen never expect anything, I just break on a card 2/3 or 3/4 the way down the deck, riffle slowly, they say stop and I lift to the break and kill my wrist so they can't see the other packet. I feel like this little subtlety could allow me to be a little less sneaky about it, if that'll improve my performance.
This video is really, really useful. I'm still practicing my forces and today, when I forgot the basics of dribble and riffle forces, I remember that I've seen how you did them - so here I am... again. It's great that someone like me - who wants to learn and practice - can meet (even via YT) someone like you - who can teach a lot in such a way that I absolutely buy it. Double thanks, Chris.
can't wait to see the street magic video though I did want to add one piece of input on the fan out Force card I figured out a way to do it with taking the bottom card instead of the top that way they don't see anything
Is it just coincidence that the force card is the 3 of clubs ? xD By the way,I liked the subtlety of the second force. I alredy knew what was going to happen but at 0:15 it fooled me, it just looked so real that you were cutting the deck right at where your finger was. Really good, I´ll be using it!
The only card I have that is a different color than my regular deck is the 3 of spades at the moment. So, I'm trying to do a color change, and I need to force the 3 of spades. I click on your video...and your force card is the 3 of spades. You gotta show me how you did that one, 4 years before I searched this. Incredible.
quick tip for the 3rd one... instead of having the force card on top have it at the bottom and as you start spreading the cards you use your middle and ring finger of the hand holding the deck to get the card to that position
Good video. I have used that last force in some of my tricks I invented. I invented a move that is almost like that but it is a swap. I slide the top card off so it is hidden in my palm then fan the cards over my palmed card, and ask them to say stop. once they stop me I can flip the top fanned part of deck over, to show them the card that they actually chose with out showing the palmed card, then I turn the fan back over and secretly slide the palmed card under the card they chose so their card is no longer at the bottom. The effect is almost the same as a double lift but done from the bottom of the deck. They will swear that the bottom of the cut is their card , but it is not.
I'd just liket o say thank you for your videos. I've always had like an anxiety thing where the only way i can feel comfortable is if i'm playing with something in my hands. So i've always had a deck of playing cards that i just take out of my pocket and shuffle them whenever i'm getting ready for a work shift (I work in a very busy bar). A couple of weeks a go a few customers asked me if i knew any "tricks" i said no i'm not a magician but i knew about two. But thanks to you and your videos i have think i've found a new passion and a love for cards in general so thank you very much. TL;DR You helped turn my anxious tick into a passion.
I like the 3rd method the most, as it is the easiest to perform. I a beginner and I can't even perform a "Riffle" shuffle, but I can do your 3rd force card method easily. Thanks so much!
I am Brazilian and I love your videos, even here in Brazil there are no quality decks and the imported ones are totally expensive and unviable (the price of a Bicycle Standard and like the price of two Knights) I still do not give up the art of cards.
The rifle force is what i'm using all the time, and now with this subtelty it becomes perfect!!! Thanks Chris!! Greetings from Argentina!!!! You're the best, i love your theory videos they help us so much!!! 💪🏻😁
So, I'd just like to say thank you for all the tutorial videos that you have done, and thank you for all the times where you have just talked to us about magic. It is so inspiring and I love to watch your videos. As a young magician myself it, has helped me so much to go out and just give people a good show. In fact, I am planning on using my magic to help tell bible stories to the younger children at my church, and you are helping me with that. Thank you so much for what you have been doing here you are a true inspiration to all of us.
Like what? I don't see any problem with that as an out for the classic force. Depending on the effect, if you miss with the classic force, you can control and peek the card or just control it and do a different effect and use a different force to lead into the originally planned effect.
I like the last one the most because it gives the illusion of real choice and it's the easiest to pull off. I'm immediately suspicious anytime someone does a riffle or dribble shuffle.
Great tutorial. I've never dabbled in magic before but seeing how easy this is got my mind swimming with possibilities. That's a good feeling, I might have to give these a shot!
I followed your instructions _exactly_ and every time I did it, no matter how well, they always *knew* I was forcing a card on them. I don't mean to criticise, but I suspect the trick would work a lot better if you _don't_ write *force card* on the card. Just sayin'...

My effed-up sense of humour, I'm afraid.
@@wolf1066 Perfect timing.
punching them repetitively while screaming choose this f****** card, it's a pretty good Force.
Aku vs. Jack yea it might work
Ah, the *brute force*
Mini Goat 😂😂😂
I tried your idea. Any idea how i can get out of parole?
Aku vs. Jack sounds kinda like my knife threat force, works every time.
This guy is a huge inspiration to me thanks for making vids chris!

I'm not into magic at all, but for some reason I watch pretty much all your videos lol. Keep it up man!
I use all 3 of these forces already but I like the subtlety with the finger and the tilt for the ripple force so I'm going to practice with that.
Thanks for the Quality Tutorials Chris, keep it up!
Jay Sankey does that last force. He starts counting them off like you do, then he pretends to get frustrated and says, you know what, just pick a card. :D
I love these kinds of videos! My two favorite forces are the last one you showed (
When I practice by myself I like using the ace of spades for my "force card"
ooh force those spades in my ace baby keep practicing with yourself if u know what i mean
I really liked the way you came up with that excuse during the cull force. Thanks man, I was having a hard time on that. 👍👍👍
I usually say "Say stop whenever you want" then I'm like "you know what, just point to card that'd be easier" for the 3rd force, works everytime😉
I have been using the last one for the most part. But my all time favorite is the one where you riffle through the cards with the faces facing the spectator and then simply tell them to choose a card they see. The one used in the beginning of the movie "Now you see me"

Chris i love you're natural style that is only you. im much older and been performing off and on since 1981. I must say it seems your a complete natural. I am impressed by you're style i have learned so much. THANK YOU
The third one is probably the easiest so I will start practicing that one
Btw they all look amazing so thanks a lot man
Can't wait for the Street Magic video
I've done this multiple times and people have no idea how I do it. It's great. Right now, I use the last one and the riffle force.
I use a force I saw on a street magic special. I rewinded it a couple of times and now that is my go to force.
been using the riffle and underspread forces for a long time. both are easy and just fly by. They both seem so fair.
Stellar presentation in the tutorial, thank you for being so clear and descriptive!
You’re too good man !! I love your tricks ❤️🚀🙌🏻
bro, your videos are so good. informative, very clear about the process and just love your style...your first video i watched was the snap change a few days ago, been practicing and am close to having it down fairly well. you just got a sub. big ups!
So stoked for the street magic. Sweet force vid. Those red wheels look so dope

I already use the last force. I really loved watching you do it
People can find these forces on other platforms but your handling and subtleties are priceless, Keep up the good work
I just used these on a couple of people and they worked perfectly! Thanks Chris!🤙🏼
Thanks @Chris Ramsay
I really appreciate all the things that you teach us.
The best technique for the riffle force I've seen. Thank you sir!!!! You are smooth as silk
THANK YOU SO MUCH CHRIS!! I have been doing the last force for a few months but the downside was the get ready. bless
You are my role model bro💗
Awesome tutorial man! Opens so many options.
Can't wait for the street magic video. Chris plz make a top 5 best magic handbooks video plz.
On dribbled force, some people will wait till the end of the deck on purpose. So you have to prepare for it as well.
Love that subtlety on the riffle force, I'll work on it. I am an amateur magician and the riffle force is my go-to. Laymen never expect anything, I just break on a card 2/3 or 3/4 the way down the deck, riffle slowly, they say stop and I lift to the break and kill my wrist so they can't see the other packet. I feel like this little subtlety could allow me to be a little less sneaky about it, if that'll improve my performance.
I just used the 3rd force on my family and I got them all with it! Thanks man, what a sweet trick!
The last one is my preferd choice of force. Along with a mind reading trick works realy well
I love the last card force you showed i was using a different one till now but i like this one better
the third force is my absolute favourite. my go to force
Thanks Chris! Been looking for a few new ways to force cards
2:18 thank me later
Ur my savior
Thanks this is from later
Thanx
Thank you. Again. Coming back to this video, I almost forgot.
Thanks.
I already knew some card forces but Mr. Chris Ramsey, your the best
The last one! Super easy definitely a strong force. Can’t wait to hide a duplicate queen of hearts as a reveal inside an envelope!

It made me really happy when you showed the last force and it turned out to be the one I use, and I suck lol, much love
I really like that third one. Gonna start working on it right now.
can't wait for the street magic video Chris!

Aye Chris that stuff was pretty dope. Will most definitely use these. Can't wait for the street magic
Great subtleties on the riffle force.👍
I am Brazilian and I love your videos, even here in Brazil there are no quality decks and the imported ones are totally expensive and unviable (the price of a Bicycle Standard and like the price of two Knights) I still do not give up the art of cards.

Pro tip: With a slight modification the last force can be used in conjuction with the classic force as an out.
Creative mind you got there, but there're some problems with your idea
Like what? I don't see any problem with that as an out for the classic force. Depending on the effect, if you miss with the classic force, you can control and peek the card or just control it and do a different effect and use a different force to lead into the originally planned effect.
The last force is perfect, I have used that one for a while and it always works!
The third one is fabulous man
the last force is great! shall be using it as a new magician :) thanks mate
Wow this vid was really helpful and you explained it super well. Keep up the good quality vids ❤️
I love your videos Chris I enjoy your personality and how you help me become a better magician
I like the last one the most because it gives the illusion of real choice and it's the easiest to pull off. I'm immediately suspicious anytime someone does a riffle or dribble shuffle.
The Underspread card force! Also known as the cull force😺
I legit wrote that before watching u also taught it!
Great tutorial. I've never dabbled in magic before but seeing how easy this is got my mind swimming with possibilities. That's a good feeling, I might have to give these a shot!
3rd is very useful, thanks C.R. !
My favorites are Riffle when a slight distance from spectator and the cull force for up close (if not using classic :)
Hell yes! on Mondays we learn!!
