Alcardmy by Mike Liu & Vortex Magic


ALCARDMY by Mike Liu and VORTEX MAGIC

Imagine being able to create an illusion that looks like Special FX but being able to do it LIVE. A three phase routine where a card VISUALLY MORPHS into a signed playing card.

From his working repertoire Mike Liu shares his highly visual morph of a playing card into a signed playing card. Mike has performed this routine under test conditions from street performances to strolling and close-up corporate work. It has become his signature routine that not only fools lay people but has fooled many a knowledgeable magician.

No pipe-dreams - this is audience tested over many years to get maximum impact. A very visual and original card change.

This very visual morph happens up-close using a very clever gimmick that does all the work for you. During the morph the spectators see the card actually smudge and then morph into the card they signed moments before.

Each gimmick is custom made and does most of the work for you.

EFFECT: A three phase card morph routine where a card is selected from a RED back deck and signed on the face. It is then lost in the deck. The performer then shows the face card of the deck which starts to SMUDGE as he waves his hand then visibly morphs it into the signed card, which the spectator then turns over to now discover their card has a BLUE back. The card is given away as a souvenir.

MINI BY PERSEUS ARKOMANIS


Mini me
A selection is pinned to the table under a snap of your finger, visibly shrinking down into a mini card as it hits the surface.

Ridiculously easy to do. You'll be performing this INSTANTLY.

Alice
As a selection tumbles down the rabbit hole, landing in the spectators hand it turns into a mini, almost-cartoon-like version of itself.

Fast, visual and memorable.

RLSE
An inspiring presentation about Kings sees 4 mini Kings expand into 4, full bodied, poker size cards.

Half right
Spectators love nothing more than for a trick to go wrong. Magic isn't real and they can return to their skepticism.

BUT wait, you tear the 10 to make it a 5. Then the half card morphs into their selection. Their belief in magic is restored.

Torn
Math effects are boring. However, in Torn, you actually get a lesson in subtraction when you see a big 6 visibly tear into 2 mini cards. A 4 & 2.

Goblins or Trolls
Magic is all about the impossible, and Mini sandwich is a WTF moment.

This is one of those effects where you spectator is going to sit there silent trying to work out how you pulled a normal card from in-between two mini cards.

"IT COULD NOT HAVE BEEN HIDING BETWEEN THEM."


Format : Download/Stream
Difficulty: Easy
Duration: 34 Minutes
Additional Notes: You will need a mini deck to perform these effects. Preferably one that matches your normal sized deck. You can buy them in our playing card section.

Esprit 2.0 by Jean Pierre Vallarino


An out of bounds trick that won't be easily forgotten and will run from mouth to ear, building your magician or mentalist reputation!

A wallet containing a prediction is handed to a spectator. At this very precise moment there is absolutely no possibility of touching or even changing this prediction.

The spectator is asked to think of the name of any person he wants and to MENTALLY SPELL this name while counting cards from a deck one at a time on the table. The last card will be the last letter of the name thought by the spectator. The selected card is unknown by the spectator and the mentalist.

This card has REALLY BEEN SELECTED BY PURE CHANCE and amazingly... it matches the predicted card.

Spread the cards face up... now imagine the reaction of your audience when you flip the rest of the cards over and spread the cards our on the table. They discover it is just an ordinary deck and will be able to examine the cards. THE ONLY SELECTED CARD MATCHES THE ONLY CARD LEFT ON THE TABLE!

A second unknown routine is included in this DVD: a number is asked to be given from 1 to 52... and matches the prediction! No forcing whatsoever; all cards are left for examination and can be borrowed.

The Vanishing Ring

As a performer, we are always searching for the right tool to create real miracles. A magical effect that can mystify and enchant the audience.

What if you can vanish a borrowed ring, without ever touching it or even going near the spectator?

Tarbell 50: Novelty Rising Cards


Causing a chosen card to mysteriously rise from the pack has fascinated magicians and captivated audiences for centuries. It's a time-tested combination of card revelation and unexpected animation.

In Lesson 27, you learned a number of great methods to make selected cards rise out of the deck on your command. Now, Dan expands upon those original concepts with more challenging constraints, diverse methods, and fascinating presentations. He's even included a brand new method, revealed here for the first time.

First, cards trapped in an envelope, isolated upon an artist's easel, still find a way to rise. And, you'll learn how to make the updated design for the easel.

Next, you'll learn a simple, self-contained version of rising cards from envelope, and a neat variation with a book that Dan has made look more innocent than ever. Plus, you'll even discover a completely impromptu version that can be done with any book and any unprepared deck of cards.

Then, you'll learn a full routine where a fedora is the star. A card appears in its headband, another rises while covered and trapped, a third slices its way right through the top of the hat, and the last one crawls out of the mess of cards in full view of the delighted audience.

And finally, Dan dresses up a charming idea of Tarbell's with a haunted dollhouse, by adding a bit of spooky music an unexpected apparition.

This lesson is a wonderful example of creativity which proves you don't have to settle for the standard approach, and small changes make a big difference.

Ultimate Oil and Water Collection by Nguyen Quang Teo



Effective By Do Ki Moon


마술사 도기문의 첫 렉쳐 DVD !
이 DVD에서는 셀프워킹, 트라이엄프 ,체인지 , 플러리쉬 등
마술사 도기문의 다양한 9가지 카드 마술 아이디어가 수록된 DVD 입니다. his Card Magic DVD that comes from the brilliant ideas of Ki Moon Do includes a lot of different materials such as Self Working tricks, Triumph Routines, Visual Changes, and Flourishes.

Mute by Ryan Stock


This trick FOOLED ME FIVE TIMES IN A ROW. That doesn’t happen a lot, but I’m man enough to admit it.

MUTE was the actually first trick that Ryan ever showed me. I was CLUELESS. And since that time…the trick has grown more and more
deceptive.

Here’s how it looks:

Your friend walks out of the room. Somebody picks a card and puts it back in the deck. It really goes in the middle, and the cards really go in the box. Then your friend walks back into the room…and she INSTANTLY knows what the card was picked.

YOU DON’T SAY ANYTHING. (Hence the trick’s title: Mute.) In the past, tricks like this were accomplished by complex verbal coding, but with MUTE, you say NOTHING. You don’t have to hold your body in a certain position. No hand signals, either. No palming or indexing or fancy sleight-of-hand. Nothing like that.

And most importantly: NO FORCE. The spectator can select WHICHEVER card he wants. Hell—he doesn’t even have to physically pick the card; he can just NAME it.

THAT’S why MUTE fooled me five times in a row. Everything I was looking for (forces, words, hand signals)…JUST WASN’T THERE.


One of the most powerful and most underused premises in magic is PASSING THE POWER onto somebody else. And ANYONE can perform MUTE with you. You don’t need a magic partner or anything like that. You can teach somebody how to do MUTE with you IN TWO MINUTES FLAT. Your friend, your girlfriend, your wife, your partner, your co-worker, some dude you meet at a party—ANYONE can do this with you, and it will FOOL THE HELL OUT OF EVERYONE WATCHING.

I know this firsthand. Which is weird; usually I’m the one doing the fooling, but this time, it was all Ryan. Like I said, I’m man enough to admit this.

-Rick Lax

Clone Coin by Mark Lee


Mark Lee presents three amazing illusions, with his super clean 'Clone Coin', easily explaining the techniques and methods behind his amazing routines.

"Once you see the ingenuity of the coin, the possibities are endless."

Clone Across, is a simple coins across in your hands effect. You start off by displaying two coins openly, there is obviously nothing else in your hands. You place the two coins, one at a time, and very cleanly, from your right hand to the left. You now pick the two coins up with your right hand, and display them. They are then thrown one at a time into your left hand (you can even hear them clinking), and you grip them, making a fist with both hands. You make a magical gesture, and although your hands never come anywhere near each other, you can now show that you have one coin in each hand!

Clone Matrix - Using four coins, which are shown and counted, and two regular playing cards, borrowed if you wish. The coins are spread out in to a square formation. Two of the coins are now covered by the playing cards. When one is lifted, a coin has gone, and when the other card is lifted there are now two coins under it. This is repeated, until all the coins are now under one card! You can now show you have only two cards and four coins!

Clone Alone - Start by showing an empty hand, reach into the air and produce a coin from nowhere. Reach under your elbow and produce a second coin. Be amazed as each coin then vanishes one by one!

Comes with a professionally shot DVD, using various angles to provide the best teaching experience available, and Euro Coin gimmick.
Note: Ungimmicked Euro coins NOT included.

Some customer comments :

"All coin workers will want one of these as a matter of course"
- Walt Lees - ABRA Editor

"I have every version of this trick, and it is my favorite 'carry around' effect"
- Phil Eley

"An absolute miracle in the hands of a thinking magician" - Lord Highton "The best coin trick I have ever bought"
- J.Harris

The Experiment by Vinny Sagoo


Dr Rhine devised an experiment back in the early 1900's to test for the existence of Extra Sensory Perception (ESP). He created five symbols, the Circle, Cross, Triangle, Square and Wavy Lines. You remove ten cards from a plastic wallet, five of which you pass to your spectator. Ask him to shuffle them face down as you do the same with your packet. You both exchange one card, which is then turned face up and inserted into the face down packet of cards. This is all done behind your back, so that no one knows what the exchanged cards are. You spread both the packets and the SAME symbol is the only card face up! You then state that you made a prediction beforehand, and when you turn the plastic wallet over, it's also the SAME symbol! You state that this shows that you and the spectator have psychic abilities. The spectator a little sceptical, thinks that all of the cards are the same, but when they are turned over, they are actually all completely BLANK!

Easy to do
Fully examinable
No sleights
Three killer phases

The Bill Test by Erik Casey


“I can’t believe this wasn’t created 50 years ago.” -Gregory Wilson

“Superb!" -Paul Cummins

“When I do non­card magic I am incredibly picky and The Bill Test has gone into my repertoire and wallet.” -Ryan Schlutz

“Hot on the heels of the ever popular Poker Test 2.0, Erik nails it again with The Bill Test. It’s the perfect anytime, anywhere piece of magic that you can always carry with you. It’s visual, powerful, and it happens in the spectator’s hands. This is something I’ll use.” -­Tim Trono

The Bill Test teaches you how to execute a perfect bill transposition with any borrowed bills.

This brand new utility device allows you to start and end totally clean, and still perform an incredibly visual bill transposition. The nature of the routine cancels out any doubt of funny business, as everything is examinable from start to finish, because the borrowed bills never leave the sight and/or hands of the spectator. This is a very hands on approach to a classic routine, that will leave your audience in disbelief.

With teaching by Erik Casey and Gregory Wilson, you couldn't ask for a better deal. This will surely be a part of your daily performance gear.

Learn multiple different routines from Erik, Gregory, Ryan Schlutz and Meraux Dantes, and 5 different bill changes in this DVD.

The most versatile transposition in money magic. Including custom designed gimmicks.

Stretching Time by Dan Hauss


I get so excited when I see a new trick like this. So slow.. so visual. Yum. Definitely adding it to my restaurant act.

It could be the only rubber band trick everyone should learn. That sounds bold, but HERE'S WHY:

1. Purely visual. No language barrier. Working pros know why this matters.
2. EASY to learn. Usually with rubber bands, the better the trick, the harder it is. Not this time!
3. SLOW. I get so excited when I discover a visual trick I can do slowly. Crazy man's handcuffs is great, but if you don't have quick fingers, it can be tough. Plus you gotta keep those bands moving.
4. Multiple phases means you can get as much entertainment as you want out of it. Need a 5 second trick? You're set. Need more? Keep going!
5. The "secret moves" are impossible to catch. In the traditional crazy man's handcuffs, you need to do the dirty work out in the open. Great trick, but the heat is on. In Stretching Time, they can take their magnifying glasses out, they'll never see what happened.

PROFESSIONALS: For years now, anytime I'm out, the one trick I RELY ON to entertain on-demand is crazy man's handcuffs. When I've forgotten my gear, I just say "Yeah, do you have any rubber bands?" Great.. but after I do it, of course they want more. They love CMH, but it's a 2 second trick. Stretching time is the perfect pairing with CMH. It seems even more impossible, so personally I do it after, and it gives me at least another couple minutes to goof around with them and have fun.

Check it out, you'll love it.

V by Manos Kartsakis

"I think Manos is a guy that is going to have a big name in Mentalism soon. This work is a very clever twist on the "which hand" principle that uses no gaffs or electronic, this is how mentalism should be!" - Luca Volpe

Book Format: Physical/Digital
Page Count: 54
MindFX is very proud to introduce you to the work of Manos Kartsakis.

Manos Kartsakis is one of Europe's finest underground creators who, up until now, has only shared his work with a very select few.  In this, his very first commercial release for the mentalism community Manos will be sharing some of his most closely guarded routines based upon the 'Which Hand' plot.

Fans of Mark Elsdon's 'Tequila Hustler' are sure to marvel over the new approaches that Manos offers, each of these utilising different methodology (with zero gimmicks required) to create the following effects -

Veritas (Only ONE question asked) -

The performer hands the spectator a small object. Whilst placing their hands behind their back, the spectator is instructed to hide the object in either hand. Despite being able to lie or tell the truth to any question, the mentalist is able to discern the location of the object with 100% accuracy.

Vox (A ZERO question approach) -

The performer hands the spectator a small object. Whilst placing their hands behind their back, the spectator is instructed to hide the object in either hand. This time no questions are asked at all. The spectator is instructed to say nothing out loud. This is a game that is played only in the spectator’s mind. With zero questions asked, the mentalist is able to discern the location of the object with 100% accuracy.

Verbalist (A super clean TWO spectator version) -

The performer instructs two spectators that one of them is to hide a small object in one of their hands while his back is turned. The spectators are also instructed to decide which one of them is going to play the role of the truth teller and which one is going to play the role of the liar.

All this happens secretly and the performer has no knowledge of any of this when he turns around to face the spectators. With only a couple of questions, the performer is able to determine the exact location of the object, as well as determining which roles (liar/truth teller) each of the spectators are playing.

Vice Versa (A multi-phased routine which is ideal for stage and cabaret) -

A bonus stage routine which uses the entire audience and culminates with several powerful reveals!

Tornado Twist by Kieron Johnson


I've never seen anything like this trick. But when you watch the video, you may think it has to do with sleeves. It doesn't. He does it with short sleeves later on, plus there's a full performance (video #2)

Inside someone's CLOSED FIST, you cause metal to bend and REALLY TWIST. They can feel it AND SEE IT TWIST. Think about that... Seriously, it's empathy time: Think about how freaky that must feel. Think about how unforgettable that experience is.

Kieron Johnson has become famous for his outside-the-box thinking, and this has his signature all over it. He's taken metal bending to a different planet, while still making it practical for real-world magicians to perform at paid gigs. He teaches a full metal bending routine so you can drop this right into your act.

Watch video #2 for a full performance.

Swap by Nicholas Lawerence


"Swap" in three words: PRACTICAL, ORIGINAL, STUNNING.

Nicholas Lawrence releases his "pet" pocket effect, which he does every day to amaze the people in his life. The effect is this: you reach into your pocket and remove a dollar bill and clearly show it. Now you VISUALLY move the printed seal around on the bill and cause it VISIBLY change places with another insignia. You can then hand out the bills and nothing suspicious can be found.

Moving printed material on bills is not new, but the startling nature of causing two symbols to change places IS new, and it makes for a moment your spectators will never, ever forget.

Nicholas covers everything you need to know to perform "Swap." There is some easy preparation required, but nothing more than a little cutting and gluing! To perform the trick, you'll need to use currency that has two insignias/stamps the same size (US dollars are the perfect currency).

Linx by Rian Lehman & Sensor Magic



A miracle with two cards.
No glue or magnets and everything
can be inspected at the end.

Little Door by Roddy McGhie

The smash hit effect of Blackpool Magic Convention 2016. From the creator of 'FLUX' and 'Sew-On' comes the incredible 'Little Door'...

Effect: You tell the story of a trick a magician once showed you. You explain that he was able to name your chosen card using a little secret door in the card case.

You illustrate this by drawing a little door on the card case. Without any funny moves, you proceed to OPEN the little door showing the card within!

Of course this was just a story so you close the door before slowly erasing the drawing and immediately handing the case out for examination!

This incredible effect is not just a card trick but rather a magical, illustrated tale designed to entertain and enrapture audiences of all ages. It also looks really cool!

"Roddy's Little Door is everything you could want in a magic trick: incredible visuals, unfathomable method and stunning audience reactions. I was fooled.You'll be fooled and your audiences don't stand a chance." - MARK ELSDON

"Brilliantly visual, wonderfully baffling and truely magical!" FISM World Champion - MATTHEW WRIGHT

"You're releasing this? No!!!! I want to keep it for ME! Selfish I know but this is just too damn good!" - ERIC JONES

"I've been visually mind f**ked!" - DAN HAUSS

Includes hand-crafted custom gimmicks.

In the Middle by Mark Mason


If you're one of the many magicians who have seen Mark do this at magic conventions over the last couple of years, then you're already fully aware just how good this is.

This is Mark's favorite 3 card Monte routine. It's so easy to perform yet packs a punch way above its weight!

Just 2 kings and a queen is all you need. The 2 special gimmicks allow some of the cleanest, no sleights, Monte moves you will ever see!

The complete vanish of the queen at the end is still one of the strongest reactions I ever get from laymen.

Paul Brook LIVE (Penguin LIVE)


"I love Paul's approach to mentalism. He always comes at things from new angles and with a practical real world method. That, today, is refreshing." - John Archer

"Brilliant out of the box thinking, contemporary, cutting edge and, in many cases, original. Paul Brook has been a force in mentalism for over 10 years. His approach is always direct, uncluttered and wonderfully presented." - Marc Spelmann

"Definitely one to watch and enjoy! Paul Brook is a major creative talent in magic and mentalism, and has absolutely wonderful material to share. Best of all, he isn’t too ‘over-exposed’. So many of his unique ideas, concepts and creations will probably be new to you. This is going to be great!" - Ian Rowland

"Paul is one of the good guys. He’s able to create fresh and interesting approaches to mentalism and has the ability to present them to his audiences in engaging and intriguing ways. What I really like about his thinking is that he always creates effects that are practical and commercial. In other words, you’ll use them. I’m sure he’ll teach you some great effects and you’ll learn a lot from watching him perform. Enjoy!" - Marc Paul

"Paul Brook’s work in mentalism, with its origins in a deep professional study of genuine psychology, is fascinating and inspiring. He bridges the gap between the modern and traditional styles of performance, with material that is rooted in real human behaviour, whilst still practical and workable. At their best, his effects undo the audience’s every expectation about the format of a ‘trick’, whilst still retaining their ‘real world’ edge." - Phill Smith

"Paul’s body of work and presentation style has been a huge influence on me. His attention to detail and exquisite exploitation of the tiniest subtleties have led to him creating some beautiful miracles, several of which I have used close-up, on stage and on radio. Prolific as a creator, generous with ideas and a complete gentleman, too, his work demands any serious mystery performers’ attention." - Anthony Jacquin
What will he teach?
Brook Test
An any word 'book test' with the added twist that the book is genuinely borrowed.

Pen Game
A simple game with a ball-point pen demonstrates that maybe not all of your choices are as free as you might think.

Imp-Ossible
A drawing duplication with a twist: the participant thinks of a random word and you can tell them.

Dog-Eared Switch
A way to switch out a prediction right under their nose.

Locked In Thought
A completely normal lock is inspected and held by the participant. The participant inputs a new combination and the performer is able to divine the number.

Juxtapose
Two people think of a number, a random number, and write it down, both numbers match!

One in the Hand
The performer holds out his closed fist. The participant is asked to name any coin and imagine a red letter ‘X’ on one side. The performer opens his hand to reveal that exact coin and a permanent marker red ‘X’ on the side called for. The coin can be kept by the participant.
Who is he?
Paul was previously a psychologist before becoming a full time entertainer; twelve years later he still loves the decision to enter showbiz.

Aside from an impressive list of clients and a performing all over the world, Paul is known for being a creator of modern mentalism that is divergent in thinking and yet real-world workable.

Having written more than twenty books on the subject of mentalism, it’s easy to see why Paul is also kept busy consulting behind the scenes for both television and theatre shows alike.

It isn’t just mentalism effects that Paul has become known for. Drawing on his psychological education and knowledge, he analyses the theoretical applications of mentalism and his stand alone book on mentalism theory ‘The Alchemical Tools’ is considered a modern classic.

Paul seldom lectures and over the past few years has gone ‘underground’ as far as the magic community is concerned. This rare lecture will see Paul sharing a number of his favorite effects and the theory behind them.



If you could ask ONE question to one of the world's most creative professional magicians, what would it be?

If you've never been to a magic lecture, there’'s never been a better time. Sunday, April 10th, at 7:00pm, we're live-streaming Paul Brook LIVE in a spectacular 2-hour interactive online lecture. Watch, ask questions, and learn things you won't find in any book or DVD.

Close Call by Rick Lax


You’re at a party. You’re at work. You’re at school. Wherever.

Somebody says, “Do a trick.”

And you’ve got NOTHING on you. ZERO.

So what do you do?

RIGHT NOW. DO SOMETHING. GO.

It’s a lot of pressure, right? But it happens. When people know that you do magic, they’re going to want to see a trick. And they don’t realize that you need cards or gimmicked coins to make the trick happen.

Well, now you don’t. CLOSE CALL is a mindreading miracle that you can PERFORM AT A MOMENT’S NOTICE. Just grab a pen and a piece of paper—THAT’S IT. That’s all you need to ASTONISH a group of friends and prove to them that you’re a MASTER—a magician who can make mental miracles happen AT ANY TIME.

And Close Call is more than just a ‘trick’—it’s a FULL ROUTINE with bits of humor, bits of failure—well, one bit LOOKS like a failure AT FIRST—and then, ultimately, A SHOCKING PREDICTION…THAT’S OUT OF YOUR HANDS THE WHOLE TIME. No forces, no funny moves, works every time.

SPECIAL NOTE

Close Call is based on an ingenious principle I learned in the middle of Mark Elsdon’s 4.5-hour Penguin Live Lecture, which you can check out HERE

The lecture was PACKED with incredible, practical material. But there was the ONE QUICK MOMENT that made the whole audience do a DOUBLE-TAKE. It was a quick, clever idea, that’s used here, with Mark’s permission. I developed this quick moment into a full trick and full routine—one that fully disguises Mark’s core method. But I should say, if you buy Close Call and love it as much as I do, you should take a serious look at Mark’s whole lecture, which is chockfull of gems like this.

Special Thanks to: Mark Elsdon, Jake Roeber, Bizzaro, Nick Diffatte, Ryan & AmberLynn, Greg Dow and Justin Flom.

Get SWITCH Today.
See a full content list


Geraint Clarke & Daniel Madison talk switches, how the project came to light, who it's for and how these 17 gems can save you in those difficult situations...





FULL CONTENTS



SECTION 1- LLOYD BARNES

L&L Switch V1
Welcome to the concept of Lapless lapping. Whilst standing you're able to switch a card from the table in the casual motion of picking up the card. You'll want to start performing this instantly!

L&L Switch V2
Apply this variation to L&L v1 and you'll arm yourself with a top-change-esque move that flies under the radar with your spectators.

SandSwitch
By far the most convincing switch of a sandwiched card. This is the one move the mystery card plot has been missing.

Stalone
The ability to switch a folded card on the table and then show your hands completely empty. Forget lapping.

Up and Under
A devious subtlety that opens up a myriad of different ideas, this switch allows you to change a card in full view clipped under your belt.



SECTION 2 - DANIEL MADISON

Muck:Shun
The master of the muck is back. A staple in the gambling world, this is a classic tabled-switch taken from the real world of cheating.

Push
A powerful push of a folded card towards your spectator is all you need to switch out the card. Simple, direct & deceptive.

Turnover
Flip an up-turned card face-down from the top of the deck and hand it to the spectator. In that action the card is replaced allowing you to produce it from anywhere before they even know the trick has begun.

545
A compact switch of 5 random cards for a winning Royal flush, in the simple action of displaying and turning the cards over on top of the deck.

Card Switch One
A dual action throw that disguises the moment of the switch behind a casual replacement on the table. We know how it's done and we still can't see it. Can you?



SECTION 3 - GERAINT CLARKE

Acapelo V2
A fluid masterpiece that's as motivated as it is fooling. To the spectator the card never leaves their sight and is switched out during a sandwich routine.

Athens
Mistaken for a T. Nelson Down's change, Athens is as mechanically satisfying as it is deceptive. This single card substitution allows you to switch a face up card as you're placing it into your spectators hands.

Pocket Switch
An added piece of theory to make card-to-pocket more impossible. The dirtiest part of card to pocket is going to that pocket with a 'dirty' hand. With this addition, the spectator sees the card in your pocket before they've even signed their selection.

Half Moon
A casual, but fair switch designed specifically for card-to-mouth routines. They choose where to put their card in the fan, but it's in your mouth before it's been squared into the pack.

Bonus: Geraint gives tuition on how to perform card-to-mouth correctly based on years of performance experience to large groups. This is how you get away with it EVERY time.

Tornado
Adding a flare to the classic deal switch from Marlo, Geraint shows you how to swap the selection during a spin.

Fixed Fate aka 'Predicted Card at Predicted Number' by Cameron Francis and Big Blind Media


Predicted Card at PREDICTED NUMBER - a self working miracle! Comes with Bicycle Deck!

The magician hands a blue-backed deck to a spectator, who is then asked to name a random number - let's say they say, 15.

The spectator is asked to turn the deck face up and slowly deal down 15 cards. Every card is clearly different and the spectator stops at the 15th card. Let's say it is the Ten Of Clubs.

The magician reiterates just how fair this was. The spectator chose a random number. The spectator dealt down to THAT number themselves and ended on a card. Both the chosen number and the chosen card were freely arrived at.

The magician shows that, had a different number been named, a different card would have been selected. So that makes it all the more impossible when the Ten Of Clubs is flipped over to reveal that it has a RED BACK! It's the only card from a different deck. However that isn't the biggest shock... that would be the huge number 15 written across the back of the card!

Self-working
No sleight of hand
Can be a different card and number every time
No gaffs, sticky stuff, rough & smooth, mathematics or memory work
Resets in seconds
Comes with a USPCC Bicycle Deck and full DVD instructions. Fixed Fate - you'll be blowing away your audiences in no time!

"Fixed Fate is a tremendous effect!"
- Stephen Tucker

"I just LOVE it!"
- Jack Carpenter

Tarbell 49: Unique Card Magic


This lesson contains an assortment of tricks and stunts designed to make your card magic stand out from the rest. When these routines and moves first appeared in print, many of them were quickly adopted by card handlers everywhere, so you may recognize a couple, but wait 'til you see what Dan's done with them.

First off, Dan adds a few touches to a funny bit which becomes real magic as a well-known practical joke snake shows off another talent... finding a selected card.

Then, you'll learn Dan's set-up and handling for a beautiful mystery in which three selected cards seem to melt through a deck trapped in a wine glass.

And Dan shows you how to make a simple little gimmick, allowing you to cause a selected card to appear in an unexpected location.

Then, a singing participant finds their own card through a karaoke coincidence, and another card pops into view with quick riffle.

And speaking of cards popping into view, we're going to Vegas where Jeff McBride teaches you his exceptional work with a knacky move.

You'll learn a few other jumping cards, including the preferred modern method. Then, back to Vegas to find out how Jeff gets the most out of the long distance spinner.

And finally, Dan put together a quick routine to incorporate a card floating, vanishing, returning, and ultimately jumping through a flaming hoop.

Some of these tricks require special props, others plenty of practice, but all of them can get you, and your card magic, the attention and reactions you desire.

Incredihole by Brandon David & Chris Turchi


Your new favorite party trick is here.

It's that kind of trick where every spectator becomes an instant salesperson, goes and brings more friends over begging to see it. It's a riot.

Combining hand-cuff escapes, sawing ladies in half, and finger choppers into one outrageous stunt that you can do anytime anywhere. It's the rare bird who won't have a great time experiencing this trick.

And just in time for you to learn before the weekend! Have fun!!

What will he teach?

Meant to Be  This is an open-prediction effect in which a card is removed and placed with its back in full view. Someone then thinks of a card and the removed card is then shown to match the though-of card.

27  A card is fairly selected and lost in the pack. Someone in the audience is then instructed to pick a number that corresponds to a position in the pack. The cards are counted and the selection is found at that same number.

Pocketed Princess  This is my variation on the Princess Card Trick. No duplicate or gimmicked cards are used in this version. In the end, the thought-of card ends up in the magician's pocket.

Duality  One spectator finds another spectator's thought of card under impossible circumstances.

Relativity Change  This is a color change I created back in 2003. I'll teach the change and various applications for it.

Mom's Advice  Three silver dollars appear and disappear at the magician's fingertips.

Crimped Cup  This is my Cups and Balls routine.

...and more!

Tornado by Justin Flom and Rick Lax


"VERY practical and SUPER clean" -Mat Franco, Winner of America's Got Talent

For me, the Holy Grail of magic has always been this: A MIRACLE that FITS IN MY WALLET, features a VISUAL MOMENT, and takes place IN THE SPECTATOR’S HAND.

You guys, I found the Holy Grail. It’s called TORNADO.

Well, Justin Flom and I found it together. It happened five months ago, during a late-night jam session. Since that night, we’ve been working closely with Penguin Magic and the United States Playing Card Company to bring this KILLER PIECE OF MAGIC to all of you.

It’s ready.

Here’s the trick: You tear up a 4 and put a corner of the card in your friend’s hand. Then you take a step back and tear up a 7. You hold a corner of the 7 between your fingertips…and VISUALLY CHANGE IT INTO THE CORNER OF THE 4. Then your friend opens up her hand…AND SHE’S GOT THE 7.

VERY IMPORTANT POINT: This trick ONLY USES TWO CARDS. No extra pieces, no fancy sleight-of-hand. THE CARDS DO ALL THE WORK FOR YOU. And when you’re done with the trick, YOUR FRIEND CAN KEEP THE TORN CARD PIECES as a souvenir of this IMPOSSIBLE HAPPENING.

I know, I know—this one sounds too good to be true.

It’s not.

This one really does live up to the hype. Once you start performing Tornado, you’ll see it for yourself. You’ll see it in the faces of your friends, of your spectators. And you’ll want to see it again and again and again.

-Rick Lax

What you get:

When you buy Tornado, you’re going to get detailed instructions from Rick Lax, as well as an INGENIOUS subtlety taught by Justin Flom.

You’ll receive EVERYTHING YOU NEED to perform Tornado, including 28 custom-designed, gimmicked cards, allowing for 14 performances. These cards were specially engineered and produced by Rick Lax, Justin Flom, Kevin Reylek, and the USPCC.

Alakazam Presents The Pantera Wallet by Outlaw Effects


The brand new Pantera V2 is the evolution of "Outlaw Effects" original Panther wallet. The Pantera V2 has been beautifully crafted by Tony Curtis (so you know the quality is going to be awesome).

The Pantera V2 looks like a slick business card/credit card holder, but just like a James Bond gadget it's a secret weapon, which can transform in to a ultra-fast peek device!

What's more it has a super cool zipper pocket. When you put their card in to the zipper pocket and zip it shut, well you may as well be putting it in a safe and spinning the dial! No one will think you could possibly know what's on the card.

You can show there is already a card in the I.D. window if you like. That card is not removed but you get an instant closed wallet peek.

Using what is called the P.I.P.S system (Peek In Plain Sight), the great thing from your spectators point of view is they are not just looking at a weird black window. They can see a business card in the window before, during and after the peek (from their point of view nothing changes!). Making this one of the most deceptive peek devices ever created.

Pantera V2 has two cloaking devices. One is a very clever fake business card that reflects light and the other is a special privacy filter. When combined these two devices deceptively show a normal business card in the I.D. pocket even when the target card is loaded!

PS. Did we mention you can load and steal too!

This package includes a beautifully designed and manufactured Pantera V2 Wallet & Access to a full online training video!

THE TYRANT DANIEL MADISON

Image 1
The Ultimate Full-Deck Table Hold-Out...

THE TYRANT is my solution to the 'Table-Advocate'... A full-deck playing-card-index for a table that allows the performer to be secretly within possession of any playing card within a moments notice.

This solution offers the performer an endless myriad of ideas for demonstrations of sleight-of-hand at the card table...

His hands are always in full view and NEVER leave the table, yet he has any card he needs readily awaiting his command.

I am Daniel Madison.

This is Tyrant.
