I'm not a card guy so I can't be certain, but I've never seen this gimmick used before. It is simple
to make and use, but provides a great effect.
The base effect is you show a red backed card
and place it in your back pocket. Then from a blue backed deck have a card "freely" selected and
signed. They see the front and back of their card. It is replaced in the deck, you immediately go to
your back pocket and remove the red backed card. It is turned over and not only matches their card
it has their signature. You can leave the card with them and be reset in 2 seconds.
As good
as that is, and you can see it several times in the trailer, there are 3 variations taught that I
think are all stronger than that effect. Since the inventors didn't show it I won't give anything
away, but can state that if you buy this because you like the trailer you will be extra happy when
you get the download.
And for all of you red back only users, yes, you can make the gimmick
out of either red or blue. Bikes work best, Bee might be tougher, other backs may work, you'll know
right away what characteristic you need and if your favorite deck will work or not. But don't sweat
it, buy it and give it a try.
There are a couple of sleights needed but they are taught on
the video and you probably know them already. And you don't need one of them for 2 of the bonus
effects so even if you get scared off in the beginning stick through it until the end.
There is also a little bit of arts and crafts required, but you probably have what you need and
can do it in under 2 minutes (probably even under a minute once you've done it a couple times.)
It's 10 bucks. If you do anything with cards you can't go wrong. And I'll bet if you think about
it you'll come up with your own variations with this gimmick
(I was given a copy of this
for an honest review. And that's all I write - honest reviews from my viewpoint. YMMV)
Simple gimmick with great results
