Join the “Save the Clipshift” Movement
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed or email newsletter. You can also use Twitter to see what i'm doing right now with my cards. Thanks for visiting!
It’s been official for quite a while now but for those of you that don’t read dan and dave’s newsletter (sign up if you didn’t!), Chad Nelson is going to teach his underground sleight of hand masterpiece: the Clipshift.
You saw it in the Queen’s performance inside the Trilogy (the last vanish), it’s also in the Blackpool 2008 video as a color change performed by my friend Jordan Lapping, you also saw it in “Dan at the convention” as well as in many other underground videos all around the scene.
And now it is going to be taught to anyone willing to pay for the dvd!
Expect hundreds of youtube vids showing it, expect not being able to fool your favourite oldschool magician in town…
Come on Chad, call it off, be a worst magician and come up with some other average stuff but keep this underground, it is too good to be shared to the public!
Here are my 2 cents. Use it as your avatar in the forums or whatever you want, we must Save the Clipshift!
To all the card artists around the world… DON’T BUY SURFACED!!! :P

A bit selfish?
Would you still say ’save the clipshift,’ if you didn’t know how to do it yourself?
I want to learn this properly, without any noise, so as you can imagine I can’t wait for the dvd to learn all the tips.
May 9th, 2008 at 7:48 pm
Cuso, its called sharing. I seems like you’re not familiar with it…
Save the clipshift! Release the DVD!!
May 9th, 2008 at 7:54 pm
what the hell??? how would not releasing the dvd would “save the clipshift”? everyone will do it wrong… and you’ll see some horrible performance on youtube of that move done wrong !
and yeah it’s selfish… especially when 99% of the ones who already know it didn’t learn it from chad…
(i would sugest you change that picture also, because it starts to reveal it…)
May 9th, 2008 at 8:05 pm
Of course this is a joke. its inverse engineering guys!
I cant wait to buy this dvd and “get laid”.
Thanks Chad Nelson you are a genious!

May 10th, 2008 at 10:15 am
i wont even bother deleting your comment but next time please have what it takes to leave your name ;)
again, this post is a prank… get used to them!
May 10th, 2008 at 10:55 am
Quite some weird humor you’ve got there, Cuso :S Post such as this could ruin the number of subscribers to your blog… Be careful with that! :O
Ah well, most of us already know how to do the clipshift anyways, but as said before: the tips on this move can really be helpful to do this noiseless… So, grab that dvd, all of ya’ when it’s released :D

awful joke
May 10th, 2008 at 11:17 am
It wasn’t a joke, he just changed his tune when he realised people disagreed with him.
May 10th, 2008 at 11:34 am
that’s not true uglyface but well, think whatever you want or wait for the counterpost.
you see guys? this is what makes a blogger stand out, creating controversy thus getting attention.
all im doing is playing the hype game again!!!
ill be the first to buy surfaced of course… i respect Chad Nelson and i love the clipshift!!!
i even want to learn it properly!
come on guys…
May 10th, 2008 at 1:36 pm
Cuso…i agree with uglyface…you just changed ur tone when people started to disagree. And even if this was a joke, its some twisted joke thats not even funny…and no ur not gettin any attention at all from this

Oh I see, like what you did with the handlords files. You did that just to get attention, makes perfect sense now.
Very self absorbed.

the clip shift will be best seller dvd of the year.
i saw dan and dave perfomed it in paris and it was soooo crazy.
they wouln’d teach us the secret because it’s now (and it will be)a bankable story.
a ungimmiked move so and so willing will be reveled and please don’t perform it if it’s not perfect
regerds every boy and girls ( i hop)
May 10th, 2008 at 6:28 pm
I heard DnD were gonna release this themselves.
May 11th, 2008 at 3:59 am
Well you obviously were mistaken.
I lol’ed when I saw theCuso’s post….
Great job Cuso….
But somewhere in the back of my mind I actually agree with you..
Save the clipshift from the nooblets..
May 11th, 2008 at 10:31 am
Joke or not, this wouldn’t work. See the people who would go along with it are more likely to be the people who know it, or some variation of it, or just respect people’s rights meaning that all that would be left would be noobs buying it..
May 11th, 2008 at 11:12 pm
I was actually going to say I agreed with the original post… I think the clipshift shouldn’t be published.
May 12th, 2008 at 2:08 am
Jesus guys,
It was a joke calm down. So what if it wasn’t funny to you?
You don’t have to go out and say, “Fuck U”.
I will admit it wasn’t a great joke but their was no need to start saying things. It is a joke.
I do admit he should have put the move on a book, or booklet. But we will see what happens.
May 12th, 2008 at 9:39 am
Yes definitely in either a book or a booklet.
DvD will just make it Viral…
May 12th, 2008 at 9:40 am
Save the clipshift!!
May 12th, 2008 at 6:15 pm
whats the “clipshift”?
no… it was another joke.
May 12th, 2008 at 6:47 pm
Yes I guess it should remain underground coz ppl nowadays dont realise d value of magic nd just reveal it lyk shit…..People who wanna learn it …learn d way oders have learnt…..
June 26th, 2008 at 7:30 am
1st off. Cuso: grow a pair
and yes you were changing your tone because you thought people would agree with you. BUT THEY DIDNT. so grab some scissors and cut that ugly ass hair, and then im going to buy surfaced.
THANKS ..|..

It is claimed that a satisfied customer tells an average of three people about a product or service he or she likes and an average of eleven people about one he/she doesnt. Viral marketing is based on this particular human behavior.

So quoting one of my favourite Lost characters:
“How many times do i have to tell you John? I always have a plan”
-Benjamin Linus
Man you better grab those scissors and cut your tongue’s surplus, at least here.
Thanks
