Magic Review - Beast by Hoang Doan and Danny Goldsmith

David from Magic Orthodoxy delivers a thorough review of "Beast," a coin magic project by Hoang Doan and Danny Goldsmith. As a card magician himself, David approached this review with an open mind, highlighting the video's focus on slide of hand techniques, a signature of Danny Goldsmith's style. For $29, viewers receive two and a half hours of instruction, with the added benefit of being able to preview all seven tricks on Goldsmith's website beforehand. The routines covered include Coins to Glass (both versions), Coins Through Glass, Metal Bending, Phantom Coin, Coin Cannon, and the core technique, "The Beast Move," along with Danny's unique variation. David emphasizes that this isn't beginner material, suggesting familiarity with routines like the Three Fly or Matrix. While some effects have angle limitations, Danny addresses these concerns in his presentation. Overall, David highly recommends "Beast" as a worthwhile investment for intermediate to advanced coin magicians seeking beautiful, raw coin magic and excellent value for money, encouraging viewers to check out the previews before purchasing. He also briefly promotes his own merchandise, a hoodie available on his Teespring store.
