Stefano, I found Rafael Benatar on YouTube. He really does a good routine. Take a look!

I think that best routine for a formal setting is Ricky Jay's routine. I almost like every routine involving the cups & balls. Best comedy bit, is Gazzo's.

I like Michael Vincent, too. He doesn't go so fast that you can't follow him.

yes, barbell the routine of benatar it is very elegant, many phases but also very clear to follow

my curiosity, as latin language me to, would be see rafael doing in his language, i think he can be more brillant

another routine that interest me recently is carl andrews variation of two cups from williamson, he does some thing very clever, for example the double vanishing with striking at the start, and the move a la ammar for the apparition of the ball on  the cup with misdirection

let me know what do you thinling about it, very easy to find in google, just digit carl andrew cups and balls

I really loved Johnny Paul's routine the first time I saw it and I still do. I was baffled...serious! I also like Vernon's, Ammar's, Colombini's, Fleshman's & Dingle's version. Larry Jennings' single cup routine has a place in my heart also.

My favorite is still the Vernon/Ammar routines and one Tom Fenton is working on (he blew me away with a ball vanish… not mine to share). I started on the Johnny Paul routine late last year, but due to time kind of fell away from learning it to completion. I must get back to it, the Johnny Paul routine is fantastic and the Cups Pete Biro had made up for the routine are great.

My go to Chop Cup routine is the Multiplication Cup from the Mark Wilson Chop Cup Book. The 3 Cup routine I have known the longest is from The Mark Wilson Encyclopedia of Magic.

I still like them all. At the moment (when I am able to pick up a set of cups) I pratice the Paul Gertner routine. I have always liked the vision/sound elements mixed up.

I would have to say Kent Gunns fun shop cups and balls routine is my favorite. It actually got me halfway into cups, the other half was from seeing Chop cup routine preformed. I was really fooled by his routine, I was a kid again, was even more impressed when I found out he was not a professional. I was very ambitious to learn it and start doing it, but His routine has a lot going on to be able to start doing it right away. For now I have been putting ideas together for my routine.
