How long have you been into magic?
What’s your favourite flourish?
I dont really have a favourite flourish as I do many different kinds, stuff like armspreads, fans, ariels. No doubt these are rare in my flourish videos, but I do them in real life when I actually show laymen this stuff. Not just all Cuts and fucking boring.
Well, I’ll just name one becasue Alejandro wont fucking give it a rest. Lets see.. hmm…. Mockingbird. (What a surprise)
If any, what’s your favourite trick?
Favourite trick, Huron Low’s Making Ends Meet. (Soon to be released in his DVD which was scheduled to have been released 2 or 3 years ago but he seems to be forever working on it so I have no clue when you guys out there will get to see that awesome T&R effect. Actually, I do have a clue… but i think i’d better keep my mouth zipped, dont want to give anything away)
Who would you say is your favourite magician?
Huron Low, It’s always a pleasure to wtach him perform and astound the laypeople he performs to with the bullshit that he does. I’m serious, his magic is really literally, just, bullshit.
How about your favourite flourisher?
Ah, that’s an easy question. Myself.
What cards do you use regularly?
Tally Ho Circle Backs. I really like their design, Very unique. And most of the time the borders are thinner than your usual bikes thus giving u really nice fans, Of course that is partly because of my skill. But yeah, cards with thin borders produce realyl nice fans. They’re also of thinner stock than most decks.
What are you currently practicing?
A cut of mine called ReAnimation
What do you think about the current situations with online magic/flourishing communities?
Well, it’s really boring imo online communities and such. I guess I do visit these online communities to keep myself updated with the things happening in the flourishing community in general, but other than that, there’s nothing else the online communities seem to be able to offer at the moment.
What do you think about Alejandro Portela?
I really honestly think u’re a nice guy. Well, i’ll just say that i can see you as a future Kevin Ho.
What are your feelings towards www.TheCuso.info?
It seems to be a very informative website that is really helpful for beginners and those starting out and having no knowledge at all about Card flourishes and would like to start along this looooooong and winding path of never ending politics between the different communities and flourishers.
Who do you think is going to hit hard in the future?
Alejandro Portela
What are your plans for the future?
I like living one day at a time.
Who would you like to see in the next interview?
Seriously though, Erik Jansson, I’d like a good laugh.
Any last words you’d like to mention?
Thank you for taking the time out to do interviews that might hopefully help other flourishes along the way, though I highly doubt, my interview was helpful at all :P. But if it was helpful, dont forget to send me 20 jerry nuggets to all thoes that felt this interview was helpful.

Get over yourself, loser. You aren’t THAT good.
Your ego is way too big, and that makes you very unlikeable and unprofessional.

Haha, you call him a loser but you don’t dare to leave a name? You confuse arrogance with confidence. How about you walk the talk before you bring someone down.

i agree with huroncito. who are you?

hello My anonymous. I’m sorry you feel that way about me. Because seriously, i was just having a little fun there. Sorry you feel that way, I’d like to see your videos sometime though. Maybe you’ll kick my ass, looking at the way you talk. Good luck. =)

wow…this comment is kind of late but I just read this. I am very dissapointed that two very good card manipulators would stoop to such a low. I don’t believe this “anonymous” guy said he was better than Daren. After having read forum posts from both Huron and Daren it is very obvious that their egos are way out of check…and unprofessional…perhaps okay as jokes among friends but in a public forum, inappropriate. It was obviously a good thing to do for this guy to say he was anonymous to prevent being hounded by these two. Also guess what?…just like me maybe he has no google account and is forced to put anonymous to post!…Get over yourselves and grow up!

hey. first ‘anonymous’ here again.
never checked back. i see you responded, mr. yeow and mr. low.
you both are highly mistaken in your arguments, in my opinion.
first of all. you both imply that my argument is not valid because you both believe i am not better than mr. yeow at flourishes. it is understandable for someone to think my agument was void due to inferiority in comparison to mr. yeow, however, my argument did not concern your skill. i never criticized your moves. as for me saying you “aren’t THAT good”, notice the emphasis via capitalization on the word, “THAT”, which portrays a sense of comparison, in this case towards your ego (skill-to-ego ratio). since i am not criticizing your moves, a qualification of skill is unneccessary for me to criticize you. i was criticizing your ego, and by your reaction, and mr. low’s also, my ego is far superior to yours in terms of humility (hypocrisy is portrayed in that statement, but iassure you it is not a valid portrayal of my personality, simply a point used to argue). since, and many would agree, you’re ego is much bigger than mine (making it SUPERIOR, in MANY people’s opinions. big egos are disliekd by many), you oculd say that i AM qualified to criticize your ego. and maybe i can’t kick your ass at flourishes, but my argument did not concer nthat. it ocncerned your ego. and i DO kick your ass at that.
have a good day.

Um.. by bragging about how small your ego is… you come across as an egomaniac. Nice…

I’m actually kind of tempted to sign in as ‘anonymous’ and REALLY tear Daren a new one… but I like the direction this is taking :D

Hello Mr. Annoymous no.1
Regarding your PM on youtube under your friend’s account to me.
1. I dont know you, so what you say about me, doesnt really matter. Whether my ego is the size of an elephant or the size of a pea (elephant in your case).
2. There wont be conficts on online forums because I have no clue who you are. And I dont post much anyway. So I dont really see how that is a problem. hmm.
3. I was just having abit of fun with Cuso there when he asked me to do the interview. It kept me entertained while I answered the questions.
4. I just read your comment. Both actually. And you sounded pretty hostile in the first one. As for your second comment, it was…. contradictory.
5. Have a nice day.
