Whatever your reasons, these dvds will help. You probably knew that though, because you’re smart and that's what got you this far. So go on, go for it.... you'll like these DVDs, honest.
DISC ONE
Turbo Cup - The greatest opening routine ever. Mark tips the psychology behind why this routine puts you head and shoulders above the rest. Super-fast and full of huge laughs.
Though Of Card Under Glass - Blow them away within one minute of getting the deck out Does exactly what it says on the label!
OmniBitious - A logical, funny and practical routine for this timeless classic. Mark shows you how to put his ambitious formula to all of your routines and triple the reactions you’re getting… instantly.
IDR - Do you own an invisible deck? Are you using it? If you just answered no, that's about to change.
Bonus - Chicago Quadropener - Marks signature multi-phase routine. Full of cheeky convincers and clever thinking. This routine could soon become the only card trick you do at a table.
Running Time Approximately 1hr 36min

How often have we heard it? "New takes on classics." You know the story. But how often is it true? Rarely, based on my experience. This time it's different.
The first thing I liked about this DVD was the introduction. What Mark is giving you is not a random collection of tricks, but entire sets complete with the reasoning behind why the pieces are chosen for the spots they occupy.
We start the first set with the chop cup. There's not much new here, but it's a solid routine with two lemons as a final payoff. I will say this much, though, Mark knows how to pick an audience for a DVD. These women were perfect! Of course, Mark's sense of humor and overall joy in his work probably had something to do with their good mood.
Next is the Thought Of Card Under Glass. The audience direction in this routine is really excellent. And, yes, it's a thought-of card (sort of). What's more, he's using the cup from the previous routine to load the card... a nice, tidy package. It's going to take some work to get the "thought-of" part down, but if you want to chicken out, you can just force or control a card. Mark does cover the outs for those of you brave enough to tackle the full routine.
Side note: another thing I like about this DVD is that Mark is very open about his inspirations, teachers and other people deserving credit.
Omni-bitious continues with the chosen card being signed (continuity again). As you might have guessed, it's an ambitious card routine. It's a short, sweet routine that builds quickly. Instead of a parade of moves, he does two normal card rises then immediately jumps to a card in mouth followed by the card back under the cup (another callback) and ending with an Omni Deck.
Invisible Deck is next. Not much new here, but Mark goes into a lot of detail about why he does it as his finale. After listening to him, you may be adding it back into your repertoire. Of course, it fits perfectly with the previous ending with the Omni Deck.
The DVD ends with Chicago Quadropener. It's not part of the normal set, but is still worth looking at. It's a multi-phase routine that would be perfect for when you've only got time for one. Like the full set, it's got a great flow with rising action where each phase is more impressive than the previous. You'll need to pick up a couple of extra props which are readily available from your favorite dealer.
