Default I need info on these.

Does anyone know if this daryl guy is anygood? I found these dvds Daryl's Expert Rope Magic Made Easy Vol. 1,2 and 3 - eBay (item 140390685461 end time Mar-15-10 18:05:32 PDT) and i think i might want to get them. Are they worth the money? I want to get into rope magic and that looks like there's a lot of material on it. But i've also heard a lot of good things about fiber optics so i don't know.

Thanks in advance.

Daryl is very good. Paying full price would be well worth it if you are wanting to learn or improve your rope magic. Rope magic is a crowd pleaser for both the young and the old.

Daryl is great, however, I prefer the good oold days when Daryl was known as Daryl Martinez the Puerto Rican Gambler. =)

Daryl is one of those Magicians Magician guys. He's well respected in the magic circles, performs regularly, and designs effects that other magicians like and use.

While I've never used this specific product before, going off his reputation, and what I know of him by his other products you should find this a safe buy. All the best to you.

Daryl is the bomb. haha. Also try fiber optics by richard sanders. Good material. But try daryl's first. It's better for starters.

I have some material on cards by Daryl but not on rope. I have Richard Sanders fiber optics and its fun. It teaches a routine. From what I've heard from friends, Daryl has good material but its more like the sleights explained one by one and not structured as a routine.
