This is a very clever gimmick!!! I have developed a new routine which is not on the dvd. I find a matching gimmick card from a regular deck and tear off the corner of the card. I palm the torn corner. I then show the gimmicked card and a mailing envelope to the audience. I make sure to show that the envelope is completely empty. I then start the illusion. I allegedly tear off the corner of the gimmicked card. I show my palmed torn corner. I then place the gimmicked card with the corner missing into the envelope. I seal the envelope. I then make the corner I had palmed disappear and pretend I'm sprinkling it over the sealed envelope. I then open the envelope and produce the restored card. I like this routine I created because as you may know the gimmicked card has a crease that can be easily seen and the envelope conceals the card.

Is this a version of "Skyline"? Is this Scott Weiser the creator? Sorry if I spelled your last name wrong...I like the envelope idea!!! I have Skyline and the crease IS noticable, but when the card restores itself it simply is restored, and still has a crease. I think it actually looks better, because who I have done it to so far believes it is still the same card that I "ripped" because the corner is back on and the crease is still there showing that it restored itself but you still need to do give the card a little more TLC and get rid of the crease. I am surprised there is not more talk about "Skyline". I think this is a great gimmick and is definately replacing "Cornered" which I used for a long time, simply because you can show BOTH sides of the card. And "Cornered" is a great gimmick too. I was actually thinking of making my own gimmick in which you rip the entire card in half and restoring that (using the "Skyline" method).

I think Scott means Skyline, rather than Skyfall. The creator is Danny Weiser. Always nice to see a new performance variation!
