I first want to say that this is a fun trick. I think this is a cool opener for your card set. With
that said, I do not think this is a groundbreaking trick. If you have another way for the spectator
to find the four aces that is easy, do it. The moves required are challenging and you do need to be
bold. The deck is normal and you can easily do this with a borrowed deck. The tutorial provided is
well done as Erik Tait steps in at the end to give you a little more in depth tutorial. If you want
to challenge yourself, by all means get this trick. The main reason I gave 3 stars because at best
this is an average trick with a knuckle busting method. There are easier methods to accomplish the
same effect.
I agree, it's not groundbreaking, but I didn't find the move that hard - and I'm not primarily a card magician. I like that it looks like an impossible force, but is an invisible switch. Sure, the aces could be forced, and that might be easier. But I think with a good presentation that this could kill.
au contraire - I strongly disagree with the method being knuckle busting!
It is well in reach of ANY magician willing to spend some time practicing,
I have neither spider-fingers nor strongman-pinkies and am getting better each and every day.
In my opinion it is a really relaxed and refreshing take on the plot of finding the aces and really worth the money...
Seems to me one of the strongest 4 ace productions with spectator choices as the driving force rather than magician card handling as the only explanation. Not really sleights rather clever routining and handling to get a totally imperceptible switch which is probably only a challenge for small hands.
You gotta be kidding me!
This technique is a magic gem and far superior to equivoque, spread culls. Or any other card forces.
Genius is what it is.
