Hi Everyone.
Which flourishes tape by Brian Tudor would you say is worth the most? Showoff 1 or 2? Generation X, Generation Extreme?
Thanks.
All the best,

Michael

I like Show Off 1 & 2. that's where I started. I think those 2 videos made card flourishing popular (or "mainstream").

I agree.

I have Showoff 2 tape and Generation X DVD. Showoff 2 is far better IMO. Though the moves are difficult, it really teaches you well, at least in a managable way. Generation X is more like a performance DVD, and Brain seems not very enthusiastic in teaching you how to do the moves... That is not the case in Showoff 2, I can sense he is really trying to teach the moves.

In terms of flourishing, Showoff 2 teaches you sets of flourishes so you can use any of them individually. But in Generation X it's a routine type of flourishing. Brian tries to include some effects like Ambitious Card to them but everything is too fast to follow...

If I have to choose between the 2, I'll definitely go for Showoff 2.

Btw the cover design of showoff 2 is my favorite cover design at all times~
It only takes a minute to learn how it is done, but takes a lifetime to learn how to do it.

You've got a coin?

I don't have the Buck Twins, but I have Showoff II, and there is some really good stuff there, like his Sybil handling, and the Awesome Blossom....

Generation Extreme doesn't really teach. He just talks his way through the routines, even though he is supposed to be teaching.
