There has to be deck switch ? If not I will be purchasing this for sure !Damian do we have to do a deck switch ? I would like to know this before I purchase .
Thank You,

Yeah, the sequence you're watching only ever has one card in play. So you'd have to ditch the deck (except the selection) and steal Diminish to get into position.

Hi tophatter,

Yes, the deck has to be ditched, and Diminish needs to be brought into play.

With my handling, the misdirection is built into the routine. It doesn't 'feel' like a deck switch, because you have all the time and cover in the world.

There's also a new routine, that Hanson Chien has posted in the Diminish Facebook group, which eliminates the need for any secret moves.

Not sure if this has been posted, but it’s a full performance, looks like Blackpool.

Thanks for sharing, Jack Skipton. That's saved me a job. Smile

I'll get a better video uploaded soon, but at least this shows one of the routines in full.

Thanks Bruce T,

It's made for the real world, but I did have a video go viral with it. And that's from someone who doesn't really do social media.

So, I guess you're right. It must be good for socials as well!

I know a few people either didn't have, or didn't like PayPal, so I've now enabled Card Payments for DIMINISH.

You can also now pay with Apple Pay and Google Pay.

And finally, you can pay in $ USD too! No more paying in GBP and getting hit with PayPal's conversion fees.

Here's the link:

Cheers,

Here's Steve Faulkner's review of DIMINISH (from Real Magic Review).

Steve also compares DIMINISH to LevelOne, which I know a few people have been asking about.

Been practicing with it for several days now and am really enjoying it. Haven't performed it yet. Still working out my routine to go with it. Thinking on using a variation of Hanson Chien's behind the back idea but with a faux 30 second to stun twist. Looking forward to road testing it at the store...

Do you think it would be good to first do the Vanishing Card Case by Nicholas Lawrence, produce the vanished case and deck from pocket, take out the deck of cards from case and then go into routine for Diminish?

Thank you.

Glad you're enjoying it, Catbacker!

You're going to love it when you start performing it.

That sounds like a very strong routine, Michael.
