I just received this product this morning and after watching the tutorial a couple of times, I can
immediately take off 2 stars in this review. One star off is for a critical part of the illusion
being made of a soft material that is bound to be destroyed sooner rather than later while
practising and performing this effect. The routine as taught, has you place this vulnerable piece
of equipment into your trouser pocket and then manipulated with one hand while in your pocket where
it can be easily damaged.
Another star off is for the teaching of the critical move that
must happen with the vulnerable piece of equipment in your pants pocket. As mentioned above, the
critical move must be accomplished with one hand with the fragile piece of equipment, within the
confines of your pants pocket. You are on your own as to how to accomplish this as there is no
mention as to how to make this happen with one hand in your pocket. Yes the creator of the effect
clearly teaches you what must be accomplished within your pocket as he demonstrates with two hands
outside his pocket. No, the creator does not share his technique as to how he makes the move happen
with one hand within the pocket.
My initial thoughts are that I am glad that I got this at
a 35% discount on the Open Box. Secondly I am wondering if replacements for the fragile piece of
equipment are available and if so at what cost???????
I hope I am proven wrong about the
difficulty of accomplishing the one handed move and also the vulnerability of the critical piece of
equipment. Time will tell.
