Question ok so heres the details: im 14, i love magic with coins, but i really wanted to impress my friends with some fire magic. have you anything in mind? sombody suggested chemicals but i dont really know which ones to use and how to use them. could you suggest some sort of really cool trick that is not too hard to do?
Answer Hi Katie
As you love coins.... and want fire .. I'd recommend some fire with coins!
However, before saying more .. this comes with a DANGER warning. you are a minor and MUST get permission to do anything with fire!
I'd strongly recommend you start with Chad Long's brilliat production of coins from fire flashes. It's on his first lecture video / DVD and is truly magical. It's easy to do ut has a massive impact ... seting you up for any coin routines that follow ie a Matrix, Spellbound routine, Expansion of Texture, Flying Eagles or whatever.
Check it out, get permissionand let me know how you get on.
