and lastly dont forget to comment on it.. B)

Woah, sweet stuff. I'm no coin worker, so I'm like a layman to coin magic. ^_^

Sure fooled me. HA.

You seemed to have made a slight change in terms of presenting the sleight? The one where you rubbed your hand over the wrist. I've never seen anyone else use that idea before.
Usually magicians I know just make the coin dissapear and reappear. (using that sleight, like straightaway. I don't know how to explain, zzz.)

Or... Maybe I'm just confused. :wacko:
Anyway, it's a good vid.

WOW!! I must say your sleights are quite good. Though i think i know how its done. I might not be able to do as good too but here's what i think after watching Roth's and Shoot's coin works

The first sleight can slow down slightly on the 'revealing that the coin has disappeared' part. Also rubbing of ur right hand fingers might give a better magical effect?

The second one where u started to close ur right hand from pinkie, it would look better if the coin is "in" the hand first, then close from ur first finger down to pinkie

Haha my 2 cents. Dont mind me :wub:

HAHA, thanks for ur comments guyz, atleast u guyz care to give a comment on it. btw im not good at coin either. I dunno after ive been playing with card always its been a little boring lately, so coins came up on my mind. And i started doing classic palm n stuff get the finger working.And i can say im quite a noob at coins. I got interested in coins after i saw the Harada hold dvd by daiki harada.
So heres just the starting of it.

:g: :g:

Wow, that is really nice. I never thought the Harada Hold can look so damn good. Well done! :!!:

Seems like i'm going to explore Harada Hold as well. Its great sleight to put into your arsenal.

wow.... I must say it is really good except that the coin shows a bit at the start :)

It is truly amazing to show both of your hands are empty. This is purely sleight of hand?

You did really well with the sleights. Bear in mind though, that in a video that only portrays sleights, the lack of an effect undermines the sleights themselves.

That said, I did find that though the sleights are well executed, there seems to be a lack of naturalness. The sleights are performed literally, lacking a certain flow to the overall feel. I think this might be due to the fact that you learnt from video, which as most of us know, reduces the impetus for nurturing personal style.

It would be a cliche to say "start with the basics - Harada Hold is hardly for beginners" - so I won't say it.

Instead, formulate effects that utilise these sleights - naturalness will naturally follow.
