On top of the world

s13zeTheDay · 04-04-2011, 03:08 AM

This is my attempt at Mark's On top of the world (Mark: if you don't approve I'll take it down). Though it's not as smooth as I would've liked, it's workable, and there are only a small number of sleights. Enjoy.

Good concept, it's just a little slow, besides the obvious flashes...

+1

And why is there a face-up queen in the deck?

s13zeTheDay · 04-04-2011, 01:59 PM

I just noticed that. It's from doing it multiple times in a row and forgetting to make sure that all the cards were facing the same way. I'll try to refilm it very soon. Also the reversal is a move I just learned a few days ago so it should get smoother and faster with some more practice. I was just excited that I came up with some way to do the effect (though almost definitely not Mark's way) so I decided to film it

What is the name of the reversal move?

s13zeTheDay · 04-05-2011, 02:00 PM

I don't know if I can post that in this thread

I dreamed. I woke. I tried. I rage quitted.

Yea i fiddled too much.

the control was good, and that's all that matters, since it's the only part of Mark's original routine that not many have figured out

Kieran Oloughlin · 04-10-2011, 05:04 AM

Thats awesome noodles! Now where the heck all all you guys learning these reversal moves and controls I have been looking but cant find any and I think noodles variation is one of the best i've seen. Is the control orignial or can I learn it somewhere and where can I leran to reverse a card?

Noodles · 04-10-2011, 07:00 AM

It was the Repluse Control. Eh, i don't think that reversal of a card reall has a name. I bet you'll figure out after watching it a few times.

Kieran Oloughlin · 04-10-2011, 07:12 AM

Was the reversal done during or after the control (if you dont mind saying)?
If it was done after then it would probalby have a name if it was done during probbaly not.

la0o9 · 04-10-2011, 11:11 AM

the way the repulse works( i also use Repulse in my way of doing OTOTW), i think he might have done it before the control

Kieran Oloughlin · 06-25-2011, 12:37 PM

I think I know when he does the move now...
Now that I can almsot do the repulse control I could make my own version of OTOTW
Sorry mark

la0o9 · 06-25-2011, 03:29 PM

same idea i had a while back... i think, if it uses the Repulse, i can imagine what you mean
