which type of torn and restore card do u do???
i use Ripped and restored by Yves Doumergue.

Hmm.. heard the torn is good... :rolleyes:

Wow...i dun have a torn/restore card trick.....
should learn to do one.....
Just all that card tearing can be expensive....hah :D

dun do cards, only do torn n restored sugar packs.

or rather, sweetener packs...

you can find some free t&r card on the net if you search well :) But they are not as gd as they seems. hey jam.. wat torn n restored sugar packs u do? a link pls?

Ron... actually u can use a TT for that... the sweetener packs that is... it's quite a good effect... can perform at coffee bean, starbucks et al... anyplace actually... minimal prep =)

remember to get the spec to sign the sweetener pack...
i think it's stronger than the t&r card routine, as u can tear it open, pour the content out, n reseal everything is a sec or less... just the the cleaning up is a bit uncomfortable lah... :rolleyes:

I like doing Fusion by Sean Fields, but lately I stopped doing them, because of the awe and wonder I get from seeing them performed by Huron: His T&Rs kick ass

-Kev

Here's one thing to add to your "MUST DO BEFORE I DIE LIST":

Watch hurons torn and restored concepts. And get his DVD. Provided you dont *Ahem* before it comes out :rolleyes:

The other thing is to Kiss Daryl. If you are a girl. Hot girl. Really Hot girl.

*MUUUACCCCKK*
:P
I just love kissing myself... and um... M** ****
Jealous Daryl jealous Daryl jealous Daryl... :D
The torn and restored plot rocks. But I heard about that stupid Huron guy...
What funny effects... like Fire in the Hole, Hotspot, Making Ends Meet, E= MC Tear, Angel, Angel Redux ... nonsense man.
Don't waste the credit in your mastercard. Just pay in cash. Haha...

Huron

Can't wait for youe fire in the hole.. Just watch my unripped vid and damn need lots of practice to get it down hmm... hahhahaha... :D

unripped needs to much preparation to my liking

Ren you got unripped??? Then which torn and restore you like best??? YOu should see huron torn and restore hahaha...

yes i have do have unripped...

hmm then wat torn and restore you recommend now??

Hi Huron... i watched ur fire in the hole vid last yr on cheaters cheater (i think that was the site)... very impressive i must say... and to think that this tiny island spawned the creator haha... btw do u still have the vid up for access? haven't heard anything frm CC since.

i want to see it too :blink:

LOL... Hey Huron, you've GOT to come down this Friday... you've got a bunch of hungry magicians all EAGER to see your stuff. Don't let us down ok? :lol:

Since this is all on torn and restore just wanted to ask if Ripped & Restored DVD is good and worth to purchase?

Ripped and Restored is a pretty good effect! It looks pretty neat but if you want something that looks way sicker with a much easier and cleaner handling... get Torn by Daniel Garcia!! I love it.

Huron

Anyone seen intercessor - a torn & restore card tricks by Penguin. The gimmick is simple and easy to handle even self made. Good for T&R routine.

Ripped and Repaired by Dave Forrest caught my eye a long time ago. :D I still perform Torched the most though.

The best T&R effect i seen is called Seamless
Here's a link : http://magicbywest.tripod.com/seamless.wmv

Nothing comes close so far.

Oh ho ho~ But you haven't seen Making Ends Meet! Oh ho ho ho!

well... resurrexion aint that bad... but torched and restored is quite visual... the card suddenly unfold and untorn

Torched and restore is too plain obvious in my opinion.
Going into pocket to take the lighter that is.
Making ends meet?
Never heard of it
Any links?
Gimmicked or ungimmicked?
To me Seamless's handling is veri sweet showing the signature of the torn card.
Switch is veri clean too.

Haha the day he realises FitH has no switch...

Huron

Hm. Then I wonder how I've managed to get past that part so many times whenever I perform Torched... yes, by the way, I perform Torched a lot. The retrieving of the lighter is perfect motivation, and it may be obvious to you as a magician, but to a layman? hell no! :D

Making Ends Meet is Huron's mismatch piece by piece T&R... nothing comes close to it (other than his other T &Rs). It's so easy, ingenious and visual. I guess I was the first person H showed it to and I could have fainted after seeing it. Heh. :P

Fusion.. I like it. ;)

hi guys wanna ask if torn and restored sugar packets is using same concept as cards torn and restored? pls enlighten me
thanks

It depends on what kind of T&R you're drawing similarities to, that is. Some card T&Rs work the same way as sugar packet T&Rs, but in the whole, I'd say nay. Two totally different thangs.

-Kev

I think they are totally different from the T n R s i noe..

get daniel garica's torn video.....or jc wagner's one piece at a time video.....both are managable. or if you want something more simple but still effective, u can try torched n restored, i think penguin have it.....or if u live in d west, i can teach u torched n restored...... :D

Bump that. Just wait for Huron's FitH DVD. Almost a dozen new T&R concepts and effects are loaded into that disk, with many bonuses and a short film accompanying it. Value for money for value :D

-Kev

Hahaha. I know this isnt a TnR effect, but color fusion, it rocks man!

Theres this thing about some TnR effect, like Paul Harris' Ultimate ripoff. I mean, if a magician can restore 3 pieces of a card, why doesnt he restore the last piece (the 'reciept') and give it to the spectator?
Thats like the only thing that stops me from performing that effect.

well, u shud see how tommy wonder works around that problem and turns it into a plus.

hard to explain now in words... go figure! :)

Nah... i'm not that brillant to go figure it out myself. WHere can i find resources to what u're refereing to?

its available in tommy wonder's old video (yes vid, not dvd). he takes much of his lecture material from that video.

I guess there's a lot of debate about which TnR is good and why some of the concepts that came out are too cumbersome to do.

Put it this way: If you don't want to spend time to prep beforehand or practice tough sleights, there will be certain limitations to how powerful your TnR effect will be.

For me, I'm a huge fan of Torn Asunder. David Copperfield performed this on one of his TV specials. Unfortunately, it is not a marketed effect and you can't buy this anywhere.

After looking at instructional materials for Resurexxion, Reparation, Fusion and Unripped, I must say that Unripped offers the closest alternative to Torn Asunder. Those of you who have Unripped, watch the video carefully and Gared Crawford will teach you methods of recycling the gaff so that you won't have to go to shitloads of preparation again. If you like Seamless (which is also not marketed at this point of time), Unripped actually has many coincidental handling similarities to it.

"Ironing" out the creases at the end is a real pain because of the intricacies of the gimmicks required. The gimmicks that need to be worn kind of reminds me of how Tommy Wonder looks like when he takes off his jacket during the lecture, but then again, they are there for the purpose of heightening the effect. Take your pick.

And when da hell is Huron gonna release his DVD?!?! I'm gonna be carrying my grandchildren by then! :lol:
