I got this set at a magic convention, and even after having over 50 of Sankey's DVDs, this is still
a welcome addition to my collection.
Disclaimer:
If you don't have ANY Sankey
material, this is probably THE best introduction to his work that you could ask for. Pick this up
RIGHT now if you don't have Sankey material; however, if you do, keep reading.
Keep in
mind, there is going to be SOME overlap you will notice IF you have a lot of other Sankey products
(as it is a GREATEST hits, culled from all of his material). However, there are still redeeming
qualities about this set that makes it a good deal.
This is the first volume of the set of
three, and there is some GREAT stuff on here.
-Identifying Features:
A GREAT bill
trick that I do ALL the time.
-Forgery:
Fantastic duplicating card effect that
you WILL do.
-Mexican Jumping Coins:
A GREAT coins across routine. Incredibly
sleight heavy, but it's worth it.
-Stirring Silver:
Stirring Silver is a
classic... if you don't have it, you NEED this DVD set JUST for that.
-Nest Egg:
This is a clever thing I had never seen before. It flows PERFECTLY right after Stirring Silver.
Those are the highlights of this, but I mean, ALL of these items are fantastic, usable
tricks.
The thing that REALLY makes this set worth the money you pay for it however is the
format. You get to see Sankey, virtually uncut, doing all of his signature tricks. This really
allows you to feel a "Sankey" show without having to see him live. This is invaluable to the Sankey
fan.
HIGHLY recommended!
