Reuben Moreland is making his debut with this effect!

Here is what Mac King had to say about Reuben - "Reuben Moreland is my favorite young manipulator"

He has won countless magic awards and has taken the tnr plot to the next level! Can't wait for this to be released!

Hey

Just posted a quick video of the second restoration in this effect before tomorrow's release.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AO22CZGyUCo

Full trailer comes tomorrow for those of you who don't like these silly little teasers Smile

In any case, both Reuben and I are here to answer any questions/concerns I'm sure most have with an effect such as this. The thing that I think will make Fourfit stand out is the fact that you can show BOTH sides of the card the entire way through the routine after every phase.

From the 3 teasers so far, I'm 99% sure of the method. I'm not fishing for the method but if it is what I think it is, then it's all ready been published before. If this method allows for the card to be handed out instantly, without a switch of the card after the last restoration, then I may be wrong.

So my question is, can the card be handed out, immediately after the last restoration without a switch and be fully 100% restored? If so, I'm interested

Really? You're asking for real magic.
Some think Houdini used trap doors in his act, but he was just going through a stage.

No.

There are T'n'Rs, already out there, where the last restoration is achieved leaving the card fully restored and able to be handed out immediately. I.e. the switch is done during or before the restoration itself. If this is the method which I've seen published previously, then you have to switch the card after the final restoration, then I wouldn't be interested in this.

Lloyd.

P.s. I know I'm coming across as harsh but I'm extremely critical over this plot.

What's the logic behind 4th restoration? Why it just appears? It looks fantastic anyway but...

What you see in the restoration videos (and what you will see in the trailer) is only 1 presentation for the effect. Reuben goes over so many different ways of restoring each phase - from angle proof methods, to one-hand methods, etc. Each phase is different, which is something I really liked when I first saw this!

What I think everyone will take away from this the most is the different variations of restoring the pieces. You can take these ideas and apply them to so many things- mix and match them to come up with your own sequence.

Check The Blue Crown tonight at 8PM EST for those who are interested. Thanks so much everyone - we are really excited about this one, and after working on it for 4 years I'm sure Reuben is also Smile

Can someone answer my question, please?

Also, the method that I mentioned earlier, which I believe is the same basic method that had been released before was an effect called Faultless by Jamie Dawes. Seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGYUfKZ5Ji4

I know I'm being tough but if I'm going to pick this up, I don't want to be purchasing something I already have.

Cheers,

Lloyd

I have no idea what just happened in that trailer...so I don't know how to answer your question

Fourfit was shown to some of the most respectful names in magic - its more than just another tnr...its a formula. It allows for endless possibilities.

A little over 2 hours remaining! Smile

I agree that trailer was a bit mental but you can see the basic method in it, which I'm sure is the same as FourFit.

Anyway, before I take the plunge all I want to know is that is isn't the same basic method as Jamie Dawes' Faultless and that I wouldn't have to switch the card after the final restoration. Fourfit looks sick I just hope it's practical, the importance of not having to switch after the final restoration is paramount for me.

Cheers,

Lloyd

Hey Lloyd,

I will try to explain this the best I can here, but I'll shoot you a pm as well to explain it a little more Smile

In the DVD Reuben teaches how to hand out the card at the end, the switch happens during the last restoration. This means - you don't need to go back to the deck and switch the card. Also, keep in mind...in any other tnr that "ends clean" you are still stealing something off in the end. The same goes with Fourfit - you can end completely clean after restoring the card and hand it out right away.

I really hope this helps man, I don't want you to get something you won't use or get any use of of it...one thing I can tell you is that there is so much more on this DVD than just the routine. One handed restorations, GREAT subtleties on making this look exactly as if it were restoring, variations of each restoration, a way to do everything face up, how to show both sides throughout every phase, plus a super clean tearing sequence that sets you up for the routine!

Ok, lol sorry for rambling, I just really believe this is a winner Smile...I have hated tnr effects ever since trying to read through drawing room deceptions when I was younger haha - I have performed Fourfit quite a few times now...that says a lot if you know me Smile

Thanks for the brilliant and thorough reply Alex Smile

That's all the info I needed. Sorry for coming across like I was fishing or just being a dousche, I'm just major picky with my T'n'Rs and wanted to be sure I was getting my moneys worth. Taking in everything you've said, I'll be looking forward to picking this up. I have no doubt the quality will be second to none as well.

I'll be grabbing this with my next pay Smile

Cheers Alex,

Lloyd
