Didn't take me long to gimmick the deck. Probably like 10-12 min and that was being patient and taking my time. I acutally really like the effect and cant wait to try it out this week. The demo fooled me so I know it will fool my friends

It will work if you just want to impress friends, but if you plan on doing this regularly, it's not practical enough for me.

Easy to make, less than 10 mins, fantastic effect on all spectators and an effect you will use as it is easy to do.

So I jumped on this download and I'm impressed. You have to be comfortable with gimmicks which I certainly am. That being said, there's not much sleight or misdirection even required. Just some common sense handling. The one quarrel I may have is the work I may have to put in for "audience management" as I'm sure they'd like to see if it actually jumped or not. I don't usually have issues with examination of unexaminable gimmicks except in card to other location effects. If I do a card to pocket, I want to make sure they can look through the deck to make sure it has indeed left and transported to the pocket, wallet or where ever. In the end that's still not a big deal and Im sure Ill find ways around the "let me make sure it jumped .. lets see the other pack". All in all I do highly recommend this. I love the idea, the simplicity, the good instruction, but most of all the reactions I've received so far. An effect as such will go as far as your imagination allows. This routines is just the beginning as I have ideas percolating already. What an intense download.

I'd probably use it in one of my three sets of three strolling. By the time the 4th table approaches everybody who's already seen the effect is barely in view and I can reload it. Rest's no big deal in that sense.

Having performed it in vivo a few times now I'm finding that the reactions are due to the revelation of their card when I clearly had my back turned when they stuck it in the middle. This seems to be frying their brains. A majority have postulated that 2 cards are in play but the fact that I reveal their card in a miraculous and impossible manner trumps the whole card jumping from pocket to pocket.
The more I perform this the more I like it! $10.00 WELL SPENT. I'd like to hear other's experiences thus far. |
