Deck Reviews! / Wild Reserve: Pink Boar Playing Cards by Bill Davis Magic
« on: August 31, 2019, 08:22:44 AM »
My Review: 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pl_aQ63xHzQ

This is a high-quality standard poker-size deck made by USPCC (The United States Playing Card Company), the most widely known and trusted playing card company in the industry.  2019 is The Year of the Pig! What better way to honor it than through a USPCC deck for a related cause? Be part of something great!

This stylish deck of playing cards was designed in honor of pigs, to spread awareness on pig rescue, and to promote The Pig Preserve in Jamestown, TN where Bill's family volunteers.

Bill wanted to begin releasing his own decks for quite some time and felt that honoring this cause was the perfect opportunity to launch his very first deck. Bill's proud to be doing it for such a wonderful purpose!

The pigs thank you.

Magical Cardistry Bonanza / Magic Review - Magic Book by Ryan Chandler
« on: August 30, 2019, 02:37:29 PM »
review

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6kOpuHlyXyc

MAGIC BOOK is written and intended for the professional magician. Imagine having a random volunteer join you on stage. That volunteer then, with their eyes closed, somehow names fair and freely selected cards by the audience without you or anyone else ever having seen the cards,

AND the best part is the volunteer has no idea how they are doing it!

You do though... it's magic.

MAGIC BOOK contains only three effects. You will be able to perform the material close-up or on stage. It plays big and packs small. Uniquely written so that you can actually take it on stage and make it part of your act, MAGIC BOOK intricately weaves magic and mentalism together in a way that is open-minded.

The performer can fully customize each routine to fit their particular style. These routines are intended for magicians who are already proficient with audience management, and they do require additional items that are common within the art form.

This is NOT a beginner's guide.
This is not just a magic book.
This is your MAGIC BOOK. Go and be magical.

Magic Review - Pro Series "Swordlace" by SansMinds Creative Lab [[ REVIEW]]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6OupuPXjNvU

Swordlace is a classic card effect that has stood the test of time.

Not only is the effect strong and direct, but having the cards spring up into the air and shower to the ground as the effect happens psychologically signifies the finale and wraps the entire performance.

It's a beautiful plot used by many of the greatest in our business. The only problem is, who uses a sword anymore?

Here at the SansMinds Creative Lab in collaboration with Guillermo Dech and Yuji Enei, we have taken all the elements of Swordlace, and reinvented it to our taste. The result? Check this out.

What you receive:

1 pack of gimmick supplies (black or white shoelace option available)
1 instructional DVD

Magic Review - Thinner by Mathieu Bich

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvNrqt-YLds

You remove a deck from a card case, the card case magically flattens out!

With the cards in your hands, you squeeze them with your fingertips and one fourth of the deck seems to disappear!

You will repeat that 3 times, and each time about 1/4 of the cards disappear!

At the end you'll only have 4 cards in your hands -- these are the 4 Aces (or any 4 cards you want).

Easy to perform and self contained
No palming of any kind
Long lasting gimmick
VERY visual and customizable
Perfect for close-up or parlor -- it was Mathieu's closer at the Magic Castle for years

Magic Review - The Trick That Can Be Explained by Mark Elsdon

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jb0sKiBahmo

The performer introduces a small envelope and says that there is a playing card inside. He places the envelope on the table and never touches it again.

A participant takes the deck out of the box and shuffles it. Then they cut the deck and the top card is immediately turned over. It is, for example, the 7 of Spades. The deck is turned face-up and clearly spread to show that there are no duplicates.

The participant opens the envelope and removes the card inside. It is a perfect match - the 7 of Spades.

NO sleight-of-hand required. This literally is as easy as it gets!

Magical Cardistry Bonanza / LIGHT by Mickael Chatelain
« on: August 20, 2019, 03:23:01 PM »
REVIEW

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wl18egt38D0

A signature creation of Mickael Chatelain, offered by GiMick Magic, and distributed by Murphy's Magic Supplies.

The deck is placed face down on the table next to the card case. No one (and this is true) knows where the spectator's card is in the deck.

Show your hand empty. You then bring one card at a time towards the light bulb. One by one, the cards touch the bulb. Suddenly, one and only one card makes the light bulb react by lighting up! Pull the card away, the light bulb goes out! Bring the card towards it again, and the bulb lights up!

You try with other cards, but nothing happens. Only one card - ONE card - causes the bulb to turn on.

Turn over the card! You guessed it; it's the spectator's signed, selected card!

To finish, hand out EVERYTHING (bulb, card, card case) for examination! Your spectators will find NOTHING!

Magic Review: Deck to Anything by Sansminds

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SEkhn87mHTk

A card worker's utility device that anyone can use. Imagine with little to no effort, you can cause a truly impossible finale to happen in your spectator's hand! How about vanishing a deck of card in your spectator's own hand? Controlling time and causing the deck to age into ashes. Turning the cards into chocolates. Turning the whole deck into your business card or your client's logo. Any small items you desire to appear in your spectator's hand, Deck To Anything will do all the work for you.

Magical Cardistry Bonanza / Paperstorm & The CRA Change by Rich Li
« on: August 17, 2019, 10:54:11 PM »
Paperstorm (video review below)

review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ntsv5D-xvT0

LEARN THE:

SKRT Change is Rich's display version of the classic Dr. Daly's Last Trick. Two cards visually change, and all your spectator has to do is sit tight and enjoy the impossible visual.

Dash is a visual mystery that happens in the blink of an eye, as you throw a card right through, and into, the middle of the deck.

Gourmet Production allows you to instantly produce 4 cards, one by one. Perfect as a standalone production, or opener to a card routine. Rich also includes a version that allows you to visually vanish the quartet with just a wave of the hand.

Finally, Elixir Change is a printing card effect like no other. You visually print your spectator's thought-of card onto a blank card, one side at a time.

CRA Change by Rich Li (video review below)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7JFGLKar3U

Color changes have stood the test of time as one of the most mysterious moments you can give to your audience with a deck of cards.

Whether it's a slow change that melts their brain, or a quick eye-catcher, every card magician has a few up their sleeves.

But our friend from New York, Rich Li, is sharing an illogical one that'll simply leave the spectator frozen in awe. This... is CRA Change.

Imagine frying your spectator's brain with an absurd sequence of color changes before changing it back like nothing ever happened.

Why stop at one color change when you can do 10? Rich not only goes into detail on how to execute the sleight, but also variations that leave you with a clean card to handout.

This deck design was born from an exploration of style. Lorenzo Cobö wanted to design a deck that mixed mysterious, stylish, and nostalgic elements, that would culminate in a homage to the Synthwave music genre and culture, also known as Retrowave.

Magical Cardistry Bonanza / Translation by SansMinds Creative Lab
« on: August 13, 2019, 05:56:47 PM »
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kvnLzmRlsgQ

Translation is a practical, two-phase visual effect that builds tension as well as your reputation. It's a professional piece for the everyday working magician.

Imagine tearing a corner off of a random card. With your hands completely away from the torn corner, it visually changes to the selected card, COMPLETELY UNTOUCHED. As you build the tension and slowly turn the card over, the rest of the card has mysteriously changed to your spectator's thought-of card.

At this point, no funny business is taking place. The card is handed out as a souvenir right away.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avzaSinxFGs

Legacy is the kind of trick we search for as magicians. It's self-contained, can be carried with you at all times, and is engaging from start to finish. Your audience gets to know YOU and YOUR MAGIC during the effect.

The effect is simple: a story of your grandfather's greatest magic trick, performed using his original props. You remove a poker hand from his old wallet and have someone think of one of the cards in the hand. You then show that even from the grave, your grandfather knew exactly which one the participant freely picked.
Easy to do
Self-working
Includes all props (including the custom leather wallet)
This is a blockbuster effect that you will be proud to carry with you.

Package includes wallet, cards, and video instructions.
