Michael Kaminskas packs Part 1 with real-world, grab-and-go miracles. Open with a visual case vanish, melt a business card through a rubber band, drop a signed coin into a sealed bottle, conjure a C-cell from the deck when you need an “out,” smash through a powerhouse 3-ball routine, and finish with a shocking “all blank” kicker. Practical, fast, and absolutely devastating.
Turbo-charge a classic. In Mike Powers’ World’s Fastest 21 Card Trick, a freely mixed packet, a fair peek, and a buried selection collide with break-neck dealing—then BAM: one card flips the script and the trick is over. No endless columns, no fishing—just a crisp, impossible revelation that slays live or on camera. Learn it today and retire the “boring” version for good.
Now you see it—now you don’t. In Mike Powers’ Invisible Card, a spectator freely cuts and shuffles, yet their thought-of card vanishes from the deck entirely… only to reappear as the “invisible” card you’ve set aside and snap back into view, reversed in the pack. Borrowed-deck friendly, brisk, and bulletproof, this bold premise plus undeniable proof sequence leaves jaws on the floor. Learn it today and make impossibility feel tangible.
Get ready for an exciting and inspiring new edition of the CC Member Mastermind, featuring Scott Van Eerden, Andy Wallace, Joseph McNamara, Curt Harpold, Larry Mota, and Todd Goldman.
Scrambled Cards is Javi Benítez’s jaw-dropping Triumph. You openly mix face-up into face-down; with one fair turn, the entire deck rights itself—then BOOM: pristine new-deck order. Elegant, impossible, theater-ready. Tap Watch Preview to see the chaos melt into perfection. The training teaches every detail and nuance so this becomes your showstopper.
WOW Revisited Again is John Luka’s ultra-commercial take on the classic Biddle trick. You fairly show four candidates and let a helper name any number 1–4; the thought-of card melts away from the packet and reappears reversed in the deck. Clean, interactive, no knuckle-busting—perfect for walk-around or camera.
Invite your spectators to freely touch any cards in a spread. No forces—and when the selections are revealed, they form a perfect four-of-a-kind. Discover the hidden touches that make this stunning effect not just possible—but practical. Add this miracle to your repertoire and deliver jaw-dropping reactions with nothing more than a deck of cards.

Aaron works through a packet-switch FT false cut and the FT gambler's false cut, giving live corrections on grip, angle, and timing, and discussing applications for card productions.
Alex teaches the full Matrix coin routine using a baseball-diamond memory aid for the move sequence, including the standard assembly, a reversing "backfire" phase, and an advanced handling that relocates the secret coin. Both segments emphasize understanding the logic behind a fixed sequence rather than memorizing it by rote.
The 2026 Summit will stream live on Friday September 25th and Saturday September 26th starting at 10:00 AM Eastern time. The chat room opens at 9:30 AM Eastern.

This upcoming event will feature in-depth reviews, discussions and demonstrations of the latest hot effects in magic!
In this Practice Engine Live Session, Aaron leads the card segment, continuing his work on the FT cut from the previous session with a focus on grip pressure, hand positioning, and a structured practice progression. Alex follows with the coin segment, revisiting his tabled four-coin assembly through several full run-throughs, along with discussion of working space, close-up mat surfaces, coin choice, and prop customization.
In this Practice Engine session Aaron teaches the FT cut, a multi-packet false cut used for simulated mixing and force setup, through a structured drilling progression that builds from large to very small packet sizes. Alex reviews four-coin assembly and cleanup sequence and introduces the shell version, along with the misdirection principle he calls the "hook."
In this Practice Engine session Aaron continues the packet trick training with a review of Howard's video run through of Twisting the Aces before diving even deeper into Fourtopia. Alex teaches two related coin-matrix routines — David Roth's classic shadow coins sequence and Homer Liwag's “backfire” variation.
Mark LaBar, Daniel Rifkin, Henry Travis and Michael Granoff brave the stage to share what they've been working on.
With the CC Summit just a few weeks away, this Member Roundtable gave us a chance to talk about what we hope to bring to—and take away from—our time together.
Members shared what they’re looking forward to, what the Summit means to them, and what they hope the experience might make possible. Across the conversation, a common intention emerged: to be present, stay open, really listen to one another, and make the most of the rare opportunity to spend this time together.
It was a chance to begin the Summit experience before we even arrive.
Hands down the strongest member responses of any Good, Bad, Ugly in memory - more must have tricks for all of us than we’ve seen in a dog’s age!
More tools coming soon.
