Magic Tricks

Wow, this product is fairly underwhelming all around. First, you only get half a deck to work with so you'll need to cannibalize another deck to perform this. Second, the back design of the blue cards is different from actual Bicycle stock, so your force card will stand out as different when you do the spread (and they are supposed to be regular angels, not the mandolin or maiden backs).

Finally, the instructions. Ouch. There is no voice over, you just work with the words on the screen, and a very large number of them are misspelled. The "magician" keeps flashing the gimmicks while he works, and then the words come up "Make sure not to flash" when you do the moves--all the while letting us see it done wrong. And hey, you need to force a card...using a force I've never heard of...and it's not explained...and you don't have any other forcing options that I'm aware of due to the delicate nature of handling the deck.

I feel safe in saying this is a "video only" trick and hardly capable of performing live without some killer audience management skills with that stupid force. By the way, when he does the force in the teaching video he flashes the gimmick again.

Avoid this one and get either "Cheek to Cheek" by Oz or "A Horse of a Different Color", both of which do almost this same effect but with much better handling.
