Overview: Excellent version of Card Warp with cards fully examinable at the end
Pros:

Easy to perform
- Cards fully examinable at the end
- Instant reset
Cons:
-
Does require a few seconds of setup (or some planning) in advance
Discussion: I've learned
(and perform) 2 different versions of Card Warp before this one. The traditional version, where it
truly is impromptu and the cards are torn at the end has always been my go-to method. Later, I
learned a version without tears that required significant setup in advance to create a very flimsy
gimmick that cannot be handed out. Very pretty, but non-functional for live performance.
This version by Martin Cox removes the need to tear both cards at the end and allows you to hand
out both cards for the spectator to try out. People I've performed this tend to have an average
reaction until the end... when I hand them the cards. They are stunned when I tell them to try it
for themselves.
Leaving it as a souvenir, I sign the front of one of the cards creating an
instant business card.
Summary: You'll need a few seconds of preparation in advance which
removes this from a truly impromptu performance. But, overall it is a great method for performing
this timeless illusion.
For me, I'll use this as my primary Card Warp going forward,
keeping the original version for the times when I truly need to be impromptu.
If you want a
very nice version of Card Warp and don't mind a few seconds of prep, this is a great download.
