Ive been performing this packet trick for over 15 years. It is the ultimate packet trick. It doesn't get better then this 3 phase gem of an effect. Don't be fooled by its simplicity, it really does kill. I have used the JUMBO version to close my stage show for years. If you don't have this effect I think you shouldn't even have to think and add to cart!

What a great way to re-introduce this time tested mind blower. The extra sets of cards is what makes this "B'Wave" a deluxe edition. It would be difficult to improve this routine from a manipulation or handling standpoint. You can perform many different routines with this set. It's always nice to be able to change to different cards for different groups while doing walk around. Thanks to Max, Nick and P.M. for this killer release....Peace

Great effect, old idea. This is another one of those effects where if you were able to see the full trailer you would go "OH". Now don't get me wrong. It is still great, but I just feel a bit eh...

You really do only use 4 cards and the spectators are amazed.

But this is relatively an easy ungimmicked effect if you chose.

So 3 stars overall. IMO a little over priced as well should have been -15 - Would recommend for beginners.

I first got the original B'Wave at a local magic store. After I opened it and began to review the instructions it seemed as if they were somewhat limited. I researched it on the internet and found out about the Deluxe edition which included a video and a few extra cards. Since I had already ordered a few things from Penguin Magic I knew I could trust them and so I ordered the Deluxe version. The extra video made all the difference and it makes the cost well worth it. This effect is very effective and Max Maven does a good job of explaining the effect/illusion/mentalist and also explains the background of the effect as well as give suggestions for how to perform it well. The extra cards allow you to do it with different face cards. The other nice thing is that the back of the Queen is red with the same pattern as the other three cards that are used to perform the trick. In the original B'Wave that I got from our local magic store the back of the Queen was red but of different pattern and not one I recognized. I personally think this new version is best. If you already have the first B'Wave buy this one also. Great trick by a Great magician.

Amazing packet trick up there with nfw & since it comes with extra cards I can do twisted sisters for women and twisted jacks,kings for the guys.

I carry B'Wave around with me all the time and have for years . . . so I've done it a lot. But I still learned a LOT from Max's video--his tips and ideas and nuances and the history of the effect are really useful. Even if the extra cards weren't provided, the video alone is worth MORE than the cost of B'Wave Deluxe. Thanks, Max!

Ok, so I reviewed it earlier but now I've presented it quite a few times, this thing is killer. I can do four or five things but everyone always says, do that one card trick meaning Bwave. No one figures it out, it's so freaking easy to do I carry it in my packet trick wallet everywhere and is my go to instant easy trick. I really milk it in the set up and presentation and am goofy about it and the ending literally fries their mind. I also carry Powerball 60 in my packet trick wallet, another absolutely easy mind blower. People seriously believe you can read their minds with both of these tricks. Love it.

This effect is too good not to have. The one two three combo is mind blowing to any spectator. If you are not performing this you aren't doing mentalism right.

Easy to do, even for a recreational magician like me and gets great reactions through all three reveal steps.

I loved original B'wave instantly! It isn't a stretch of creativity that you start wondering what OTHER routines could I use Kings or Jacks etc...
"Twisted Sisters" (Bannon) I bought this to get Queens from either suit we could use.
"Transpo Kings" (Lovell) I bought to use Kings for using on Gospel Magic routines (intro: "Who is The KING OF KINGS?")

BUT NOW we have EVERYTHING plus Jacks (intro: "Do YOU know JACK?!"), Jokers and Blanks for Climax phase and all of them in genuine, air cushion finished Bicycles!

BUT WAIT!...You get a video of Max Maven who gives you the REAL subtleties of the effect history and his creative process that brings easily the BEST Packet Trick / Mental routine that we are honored to carry in your wallet!
BUT WAIT!...don't wait..order it NOW.

Highly Recommended!
