I should have pulled the trigger on this for $10. I have a large supply of the gimmick needed for this, I've just been looking for a routine. Too bad just the routine itself isn't available. Ce la vie.

There was a lot of thought put into the routine, by me and real performers like Justin Flom and Shimshi. I'd like to think the routine is $20 and the 'gimmick' is just a bonus. Lord knows, there are a lot of routines out there that cost more. And small side note: the particular gimmick Penguin offers is really stellar. I have played with a lot of different variations of the gimmick, and this stuff is the best in a couple respects. |

Just got the gimmick in today and tried it out. This is seriously genius! As long as you don't mind the necessary preparation and can make the right conditions to perform it, Water & Ice works exactly as advertised. It is super easy to do, and it does look really eerie as the ice rises. Worth every penny, and thank you Rick for an awesome routine!

Bought it too. Wish you would go ahead and do a penguin lecture Rick! Except not with anything you've released so far as I've scooped em all up...hehe. Is the secret ingredient reusable or must you dispose of it?

Rick- whose idea is the rising animation of the ice? Because if you'll excuse the pun, that's hella cool.
In fact, the whole routine is sweet!

Spent a long, long time figuring out the coolest thing to be done with this 'stuff' and the Ice Volcano was at the top of my list. And then it was Shimshi and Bizzaro and Justin Flom who helped me with the routing....what to say, when to say it, etc... |

How dependent on having/using the proper cups is this method? How common or easy to obtain they are is irrelevant to me.
Is if possible to do using other cups that would be on hand or more common to a given performance venue?

Ordering the cups from Amazon is a good idea if you don't mind that shipping . Or you can choose to ship it using the mini helicopter .

Some of you have asked about performing the first phase only. And I think the Ice Rising alone is pretty dang cool. That would look like this:

Actually I prefer the entire effect with the entire phrase , it looks more stunning and has an unexpected ending ...
