A hands off stunner that packs a surprise twist so good you will hear their jaws hit the floor!

PROFILE is an incredibly fun and engaging personality test effect that happens to use a pack of cards.

Four questions are asked to the spectator, who deals their responses to arrive at a random card. A prediction is read and things take a hilarious and stunning twist towards the amazing surprise climax!

Key points:

  • Super easy to do - no sleights, no memory work
  • Can be performed completely hands off - you never touch the cards
  • Uses an ungimmicked, regular pack of cards
  • Quickly resets, or use the same deck to go into any other effect
  • All answers can spell in different amounts of letters
  • 3 amazing versions are taught - each with their own unique kicker endings
  • Compatible with English, Spanish, Dutch & French languages
Comes with custom designed props, access to a 30+ page PDF and over 1.5 hours of video instructions.

PROFILE is as fun as it is fooling and it may just become your new favorite go-to effect!

Easily my favourite card effect of the year.
It is as clean as the advert states.
You can do exactly what you see in all the demos and is totally self working.
An absolute true killer of an effect that I will perform at every opportunity.
David and Nikolas are true geniuses in their creativity and they have literally done the impossible by surpassing themselves yet again.
Trust me buy this, it really is that good.
I have seen a lot of magic and methods but this is truly remarkable Gaz 😊

Spell Any Word! Report this review

What a wonderful trick by David Jonathan and Nikolas Mavresis. What a fun routine. Easy to perform, focuses on the spectator, and designed in such a way that no one is going to be able to figure out how it happens.

I’m watching the trailer. Question one: “name a color of the rainbow” I’m thinking okay, limited choice. Some differences between word size. Red vs Violet, for example.

And then I heard the second word: “Spell any object you see in the room.”

Spell Any Word.

This just became my favorite CAAN effect.

Do this with multiple people around, and ask them what word they would have picked. Shorter words would have ended on this card, longer words on this card, but your word brought you to this exact card. There is no way I could have predicted you would have said ____. No one else but you would have ended up on this card.

And yet, here’s the prediction. Freaking brilliant.

Love this.

Outstanding Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on December 3rd, 2023
This is nearly the perfect trick. A card trick that doesn't come off as a card trick. A spelling trick that isn't boring since the spelling is only an aside and made fun and seemingly random.
What you see in the trailer is pretty exact. Presented as instructed it seems totally random and the spectator is left with no way to backtrack the method.
Great product. Great support from Jonathan.
You get a very comprehensive .pdf with every detail along with the full set of downloadable videos. You can also join the Facebook group after purchase.

Absolutely Amazing! Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on November 30th, 2023
Sometimes you buy a trick, and when you learn that trick, you giggle with excitement at the anticipation to perform it. This is one of those. There are 22 video files (all downloadable) but you really only need 2-6 to do the version you see in the trailer. They also give you plenty of the "gimmicks", if you want to call them that.

I thought this might be similar to another effect I have called S.L.O.B., but this is a totally different method that blows me away. It just works!

This is easily my new favorite "toy", because your participant cannot figure it out, and you end so clean!

I like this a lot.
Starts off looking like a weak trick that's failing but has a wonderful surprise kicker ending.
Reactions have been great.
It's also very easy to do and no sleights required.

Wonderful card effect that I look forward to performing. Sweet method which is readily learned by an amateur such as myself. Nicely priced and highly recommended.

Incredibly easy incredible effect. Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on November 29th, 2023
This is probably my favorite card trick of the year as well, because it requires absolutely no slight of hand, this is as easy as it comes. The method is absolutely mind-boggling and very impossible to backtrack whether you are a magician or not. There is no weaker versus stronger outcomes, what you see on the trailer is exactly what happens every time. Sometimes you learn a method and you find yourself disappointed, not with this one, not for me at least. And best of all, everything is absolutely examinable because it is really just a normal deck of cards. And the thing that it comes with to help you with this effect you'll probably not need if you do this effect very often. This is definitely an a+ for David Jonathan and Nikolas Mavresis!!! Whether you are a mentalist or a magician, this one will play very strong.

Overpriced / Misleading Copy Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on October 3rd, 2024
$25 for this is a lot. (Plus overpriced shipping, now). For this price they could have at least included a deck of cards, ideally with a premade gimmick.

Also- the most fooling part of this to me was how David could shuffle the cards if there were “no sleights” involved. Well guess what friends. THE SHUFFLE IS A SLEIGHT. It’s not necessary for performing the trick, but in this case I was fooled by the copy, not the routine.

Excellent, fun fooler. Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on December 12th, 2023
I love this trick. Great job Nick and Jonathan! A big laugh right before a solid KO punch. What’s not to love? I did a little work so I won’t need the gimmick, but it really isn’t necessary. The gimmick is great and makes the trick a no brainer. Those who have the trick know what I mean. Only one friend, a Yale PhD, sussed a solid guess at the method. I came up with something to make it appear more random looking than a straight prediction, and think that will keep the smart guys off the scent. Again, anyone with the trick will figure that out; just don’t wanna tip the method. 5 stars. Total worker.
