Here's a funny consideration about the small chop cup fitting inside a larger. Without spoiling anything, my smaller cup is compelled to evacuate when placed inside the larger cup. Something to take into consideration as that particular placement is gonna be totally random upon construction of the gimmick.
Don Alan was incredible. The double final load especially, was impeccably performed. So quick and smooth.
That's an awesome version Doug! Thank you for sharing
All the best to you and your family! And the rest of our kindred spirits watching!
Thank you very much for this great session and all the great stuff you teached us!
Doug, just found your channel. YOUR routine is simply Great!! Super visual, fast-paced, and a powerhouse finale! Bravo!! Many thanks!! Subscribed!!
Thanks Doug,wishing you all of the best.
Fantastic, such a great finale for Back to School Week!
tnx Sz, had fun doing it!
Great routine. Thanks for sharing your expertise, Doug!
Lot of respect for your kindness! Thank you!
Wow Doug! You are truly such a great gift to the magic community. Thank you!
Perfect timing. Just showed up on my feed. Ran and got my chop cup and tried it out. Cool. Expanding!
Great stuff, Doug! Hope it led to a great birthday weekend.
Thx for the tutorial and ideas 👍
After I’ve purchased mine I’ve been looking around for routines and moves ect; so glad I found this
Thanks so much for posting this Doug! I just subscribed to your channel ! Great video. The chop cup is one of my favourite close up effects. I have the Leo smetsers stainless steel mini chop cup with his monkey fist balls. Your video has gave me a lot of ideas ! Thanks!
Happy Birthday!! Missed the live stream, but always watch later if I miss.
Thank you for talking about the chop cup one of my faves! Might look into getting a tcc cup
My pleasure! It's a great cup, just ask your dealer to check the ball situ before purchasing
@@DougConn got it!👌
Thanks for sharing! I just wanted to add that my TCC set works perfectly. Been using it for a few years.
When I first saw that short, I was not shure if my amazement was stronger, or my entertainment :) I think you shouldn't have explained the routine after you explained all the steps and mechanics you need for it. And big thanks for that as well
Happy really belated birthday! Love your vids, (including your busking vids) I have various chop cups, the TCC, Axel Hecklau's Just a Cup, Adam Wilber's Cups and Beans.. the hardest thing was coming up with a final load that would be unique, which might still not be.... Keep up the great work!
Thank ya for the salutations!
Amazing.
The best one ever !
Hey, sorry I came in late. I will definitely be watching the replay. What an amazing back to school week! I will definitely be using some of the coin palms in busking for sure. Speaking of busking, I am taking the stripper deck out for the first time this weekend. Have a blessed weekend! And see you next week!
Fat Hats Mathieu!
I've been waiting for this video for a while...I feel like you made this one just for me Doug, thanks so much for sharing this...I haven't watched yet but I know it's gold!
Hope ya enjoyed!
@@DougConn certainly, always do. Wish I wasn't working all the time so I could hang out with y'all live every now and again. Thanks again...I love the mini cup load by the way, I've never seen that and it's genius.
You are my Hero 🙏🎩
5000 chop cup videos couldn't convince me to spend time on it. One little clip and now I wanna do it haha
So, I’m “inspiring” ?! 😀
@@DougConn absolutely!
The TCC balls I got where absolutely perfect in strength.
I've heard many are, sadly some are not
I have the tcc leather chop cup balls that were included and they work fine but the problem is the magnet is a cylinder, therefor only works on certain sides
Happy Birthday!!!!
🙏🙏
Your always brilliant Doug. But wow you really are a class apart. Have a great 54th. Hope you have an incredible weekend.
Thank ya Dale!
Nice vid. Very informative.
I have a set of those Legend copper cups I bought from you. I just realized that I would happily have paid an extra upcharge for one, or better yet all three of those cups to be gimmicked like this.
The complexities of Cups and Balls routines exponentially higher number of routines I could do would offset almost any additional cost.
Happy Birthday, "Young Man"! LOL
Great tutelage as ever..
I own the same leather cup, brown version, and luckily my original ball is good enough.
I also own the small ickle pickle cup, but I never thought of combining the two cups - that's a nice idea, so thanks a lot!
And I own the large ickle pickle cup which is big enough to hold a full size 7.5 cm baseball. I found some very cheap ones with nothing printed on them that look exactly like the Smetsers balls, but the size difference is really baffling. As a gag I use a ball pump to pretend to very quickly pump up the small ball through the cup.
Thanks just subscribed
Than YOU!
Damn, Don Alan is fantastic. I had to watch it a dozen times before I figured out how he was loading the big balls. I still can't figure out how he loaded the tiny ones. Haven't watched your tutorial yet. I may skip it to enjoy the mystery!
That is acceptable! Tnx fir a comment!
Hope you and your wife have a wonderful birthday celebration.
Leo Smetsers (not Semester) very nice Dutch guy - I talked with him over the phone once.
Nice
These reval learning vids should be behind a pay wall for members
Most are. This week I taught more than average… I believe some info should be avail to the novice
Do you use Wilbur set on the street? I was really excited and bought them but find the final load holdouts just are no good on the pitch. Do you use a different holdout? Hoping my new ambitious card parlour plus pouch can hold them upright. This has been one of my favorite posts you've made, now if we can only get a wand manipulation video on par with it....

Awesome Routine. Hello Don. I guess First…Are you still there ? I’m a New subscriber (I’m Kevin, the Wheelchair M.P.) as well as a 100% Disabled Vet. (Army). I felt Magic would be a way to meet people, maybe even a woman who sees me and not my wheelchair. I’ve jumped into magic rather quickly…I’ve purchased about $2,000 in tricks and books (I haven’t even opened nor tried a trick yet. Being in a wheelchair I can’t use my pockets so I’m hoping to “Tweak” the tricks so I can still do it effectively.
Welcome to the party!
I do my chop cup routine with a gaffed paper Starbucks cup and two magnetic Morgan Silver Dollars.
I like it!
I have the tcc cup. I lost the balls. I’ll pick up some Leo red ones!
Will these Leo semester balls with the tcc cup work with the “through the hand” method?
I’m not sure what you speak of, but the smeared balls are quite strong
@@DougConn i’m referring to the “in the hands chop cup”where you penetrate the ball through the hands of the spectator into the cup Scott Alexander and Michael O’Brien have done this a few times and I’ve used it in my street act
I saw a great pool cue wand and Billard ball chop cup on ebay, know anything bout that set? Maybe tcc will recreate it, and release it a decent price. What chop cups and three cup routine that are similar to the pure cups design at a middle road price tags o you recommend?
Do you market magic? I’d sit down with ya.
Smilesotheylikeyou
I’m unsure bout that billiard chop cup & im unfamiliar with the “pure” cups, so ya kinda stumped me there
Happy birthday! Say hey to my man Lyle.
tx! &
you got it!
I noticed he was wearing one of the V rings on his pinky I noticed a lot of magicians wear those today.
Yes, it’s an “M” ring :)
@@DougConn why is it worn by magicians?
@@mikesims7931 magnetic - pick up the monkey balls; silent & no effort
R the monkey fist balls the best ones ?
They’re really good, but I prefer Smesters leather baseballs for more weight
Your video (out-of-synch) is ahead of your audio - lighting is smooth & clear - Cheers!
I actually found out by accident and created a routine years ago with the an extra cup. I wish this wasn't shown...
welcome to the "modern' world, where every bit of Magic is exposed
@@TAROTAI I hate it! Your mother goes to college.
@@TAROTAI except not everyone has lots of money to spend on magic, there’s a difference between someone like Doug teaching a free class on TH-cam and someone tipping method to new and marketed effects in a shorts video that requires nothing from the viewer but 30seconds to a minute. Think of how many amazing magicians who would not exist without TH-cam, magic is a better place without gatekeepers.
Scott Alexander does it inside the hand of the spectator : th-cam.com/video/c3NzbRWyyiA/w-d-xo.html
audio slightly out of sync here.
That’s weird because the video was live
@@DougConn I didn't watch it live, but look at the 13:42 mark and you'll see an example. The only reason I even reported it, was because you were touting all your new a/v equipment and I didn't want you to have ended up with a faulty piece.
@@DougConn live shmive - the amount of time the audio departs from perfect synchronization with the video, where a positive time number indicates the audio leads the video, and a negative number indicates the audio lags the video - that's called "lip-synch error" your new gear is faulty
Advice: just get a -- ring.
Or that
It's sad that very slightly off color jokes are so offending to young women these days.
Before writing this comment a message appear "Respect the magic". The only one NOT respecting the magic here is you. Revealing tricks for gaining some more views it's just so sad. You are destroying the art of magic, shame on you.
I’m teaching our future … I get it , not all magi understand … have a nice day
@@DougConn If you wanna teach just write a book or publish a DVD or make private lessons. It's the only way people with serious intentions will learn. You have to understand that for every 10 magi who watch your videos there are at least 3 people who are not interested in learning tricks. For those 3 people you are just revealing something they don't want to see, ruining their experiences AND the spoilering the art of magic itself. Think about it, I'll wait for your kind reply. Have a nice day.
Happy bday my bday is tomorrow's I be. 58. Years old I have. Lots of. Video on chop. Cup
