I HAVE NEVER SEEN A VIDEO OF ANYONE USING THE GECKO ON THE STREETS FOR REAL PEOPLE.

Even on the Gecko DVD there is no footage of Andy using the Gecko on the streets; he performs for his magician friend who stands there during the explanations. Andy has this look of shame during some of the explanations as if he knows how bad the gimmick is...he doesn't even explain what all the included materials are for...THIS DEVICE IS NOT PRACTICAL!

There is a forum out there for Gecko users...Jim Rosenbaum declared the forum as the official forum for people who use the Gecko. THE FORUM IS COMPLETELY DEAD EXCEPT FOR PEOPLE ASKING FOR HELP! Jim Rosenbaum or Andy Amyx do NOT post there.

I didn't get this from Penguin, I got it on eBay for 40 bucks! A steal, but the biggest waste of my money ever spent on magic. I don't know why Penguin carries this. Just buy the Universal Pull from Vernet.

I have mastered the one-handed top palm and invisible pass, and I use them on a daily basis. I have put in more practice time with the Gecko than my pass and palm combined and I don't see how the Gecko can be used for anything other than making a Youtube video with NO SOUND.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!
