I got this trick from the Penguin Magic Expo in Kansas City a few weeks ago from Mark Mason. LOVE
this trick. I really enjoy pairing it with double cross as kind of my ability to "control" sharpie
ink. It is very visual and a lot of fun to perform. The only draw back is the the gimmick is kind
"thick" but for the average person, the move happens so fast they never notice anything.

A nice effect in principal, but with major floors. First of all the four dots you 'draw' on the
gimmick are utterly perfect circles, which is impossible free hand.
Also requires a triple
lift with the gimmick. Given that the gimmick is two cards in thickness, this becomes a quadruple
lift, and to anyone with a pair of eyes in a well lit place, the method is quite visible.

I got this trick from the Penguin Expo in Kansas City, so it won't show me as "verified" however
this is great trick. Simple gimmick and with a little practice you will be performing this in no
time. With a little misdirection you can easily perform this with a regular deck of cards and add
this into your card routine. Highly recommended if you are looking for a trick of this style.

Can't believe this effect doesn't have more reviews. The red gimmick is really well made. After you
work it in for a bit it works smooth and consistent. I may even buy another (in blue) just in case
they stop making them. Didn't purchase it from Penguin but when I order another I will. You wont be
disappointed with this one.

gimmick IMO way too obvious and visible.....If you're going to do it make sure the room is dimly lit

I buy tons of magic and rarely write reviews but I think I'm going to start now.
I am
extremely impressed with the quality of the gimmick. The reactions have been absolutely stellar.
You can get fancy with your moves by snapping the card, flicking the dots, shaking the card Etc.
Sometimes I simply blow the ink to the other side of the card. Watch the lighting but it shouldn't
be an issue if you are constantly moving your hands around.
Highest recommendation.
