I like it....but I like it more for stage Report this review

This is an effect that I feels plays better for the stage. You can do this on the street, but I personally would not as I feel you get better reactions on stage where there is a bit of distance and it looks a lot more incredible. (I knocked it 1/2 a star for this)

That being said, it’s not a bad effect. The DVD gives a great explanation, and the gimmick is very simple to learn to use. It does take practice. You aren’t going to open this and perform it the next day. You need to practice or you will loose the effect. There is a great deal of acting on your part and on the part of your “victim”. This is an effect that takes a great deal of confidence and a pinch of misdirection and you have a really strong effect.

I’m bring it down another 1/2 star as you need a confederate. It doesn’t mean the effect is bad, but when you have to bring someone into the secret it means you can not do this all the time. I do not shy away from prep work, but I feel that having a confederate is a whole different level of prep.

I bought it, I love it…but I know it has limitation, so I want you the consumer to know that too. Now…add it to your cart…you know you want it!
