Does anyone out there have it that can give a review? Thanks.

The trick has been out for a while, if you like gimmicked things this may be for you.

I just don't find it very practical.

I've had it for years. Played around with it a bit, but never used it. That's not to say I never will. It comes with a clear instructions on video.

Is this kind of similar to a sponge ball routine or is it quite different?

Very different, the balls are a soft plastic (if you squeeze them they make a poof sound) .

This is more adequate for a standup routine in my opinion.

Majestic12,
That is very helpful as I am looking for something to do table hopping. It doesn't sound like this would work well for that. Thanks for cluing me in.

You have to wear a jacket. It is an old idea found in Miller's hold-out book. I bought one from Al Cohen almost 20 years ago based on Al demonstrating it on the fly in his shop. I used it in kids’ shows for about a decade then for some reason forgot all about it. I'll have to dig it out of its burial place and try it out again.

Harry,
Since you have used it quite a bit, once you dig it out I would love to hear some of your ideas for it. Thanks.
