Great gimmick but very fragile Report this review

I'll start with the fact that this is my third gimmick. The first one had broken tabs on one side. It was quickly replaced with a second gimmick by Penguin. That one came with one of the tabs broken. Thankfully the third one was fine.

It takes some time to prepare the gimmick with whatever deck you decide to use, but you'll need two tuck boxes from which to finalize the gimmick.

Once everything is set up and you're ready to perform, it is a great method and I've never been burned by it. As far as deck switches go, I have several (Cold Case, Blizzard, etc.) other deck switching gimmicks, but this is by far the best.

Once I've done the switch, I leave the gimmick right on the table or close up pad while I finish the trick. No one has even blinked at the "deck" or "tuck box" when performing whatever routine fits your style.

If you're paranoid, you can do the switch and put the gimmick in your pocket.

It's a great switch, but I only gave it four stars because it is very well made but the tabs are fragile. I've been using mine now for many performances and it is just fine now.

There is a little practice required to make it smooth and covert. All in all I ordered a second one as a backup, but my current one is still perfectly disguised.
