Ashes to Ashes


Comments: Exploration and Development of Angled After-Burner!. Ashes To Ashes is an Ebook teaching Jason Alford's move "Angled After-Burner!", then exploring applications for the move. Applications are varied and include controls, reversals, color changes, color changing cards, a sandwich routine, palms, passes, and many other ideas. Mr. Parker sadly passed away in 2007, so I am not sure of the availability of his products. His website is still up at: http://www.jacksdeck.com
