Cups and balls

It's got, everything's got its place.

You know what also doesn't sound like a good trick on paper? What? Cups and Balls.

Oh yeah.

What's the method? Oh yeah.

Yeah.

Which is cups and balls.

Right.

But specifically, you said the diverting routine.

Yeah, so this is a difficult one because it's my favourite trick, my favourite routine.

So I guess it wouldn't come off so much as probably now be a completely different thing to the Diverna routine.

I still love the Diverna routine, but for anybody that's seen the Cups and Balls course... you'll realize that actually there's so much you can do with a cups and balls routine and so many aspects you can tweak, change, alter, add, take away, that actually, even though it's still my overall favorite routine, it's probably not...

It's probably nowhere near the thing that it is now.

Doug, what would you take in your first position?

Okay, I would take the cups and balls.

And I would make sure I had plenty of balls of different colors because I have about five or six routines that I do with the cups and balls by myself.

I have two routines that I might even bring my wife with me on this trip to the island because she and I have a routine that we did for 12 years at the Magic Castle where I do a phase, she does a phase, I do a phase, she does a phase.

And in the end, she reveals the final loads and even makes one of the final loads and steals the show.

And I always enjoyed seeing her get credit for that.

So I take the cups and balls.

But the other reason I would take them is because not only do I have a lot of different routines, but if I get bored, there are an infinite number of routines available.
