Championship Domino Toppling

The “Domino Wizard” teaches you his magic for setting up elaborate designs and then toppling the whole array. And, because 112 dominoes (four complete sets) are packed right with the book, you’ll be able to start trying his tricks instantly. As every image clearly shows, dominoes are pure, undiluted build-’em-up and knock-’em-down fun. If you’re new to toppling dominoes, begin with simple straight lines to get some experience on how far apart to place the dominoes so they strike one another perfectly. Move on to easy turns, two-line split-offs, and the alphabet. As your skills increase, work with ramps or do other intermediate-level stunts, including the spiraled Ram’s Horns and complicated triple and super peel-offs. The advanced toppler can take a chance on truly complex domino acrobatics, such as Kushner’s Tarzan Swing, in which wooden contraptions and dominoes fly through the air with the greatest of ease: absolutely wild.
