When I went to a brick and mortar magic shop a decade ago to get myself a nice set of cups and balls, the proprietor of the shop told me of a mythical routine where the performer used six balls and made it appear that only three were used- probably in an attempt to get me to buy more balls. (He succeeded.) Columbini's routine is full of fascinating proposals that feel like they're all competing with one another within his routine. The routine is full of flashy flips and cleverness for cleverness's sake- I recommend giving this a read, watching the man's routine online, then taking a move or two and adapting it to suit your purposes.

Not written with enough detail to be able to perform the moves, and sometimes the photos appear to contradict the text. Watching a performance of Colombini would seem to show the moves being performed marginally differently to what is being suggested in the book, which is important if you are trying to master some of the techniques. Not recommended
