"If you engage yourself with the information presented on this DVD, then you're about to become a better magician."
- Michael Ammar

"In less than a quarter of a minute, no matter what the condition of the cards, and under the guise of what appears to be a casual stroll through the pack, The Roadrunner Cull allows you to cull multiple cards incredibly quick. Reds separate from blacks. Face-up cards melt apart from the face-down ones. It happens faster than you can believe."
-MAGIC magazine

"Kostya is an exciting card master making a national impact on the art of close-up magic."
- The Magic Castle

"If you're inclined to trust my word on the matter...buy a copy. It's that good."
- Jason England (Critical Reviewer for MAGIC Magazine)

- Danny Archer
