ReCord by Rick Lax

 

STRETCH a pair of headphones like chewing gum. VISUALLY and AUDIBLY tear the cord in two. Then restore it before your spectator's eyes.

An intimate effect with an ordinary object. No Setup. No Extra Pieces.

The effect is simple, once you know the secret. No fancy setup, no extra pieces. Instant reset. Over 20 minutes of Rick's signature clear-spoken instruction—no detail is left untouched. Visual. Clean. Practical.

A Miracle at a Moment's Notice.

It’s not a trick you’ll always carry with you - it’s a trick you ALREADY carry with you. Or take it a step further and borrow your friend’s headphones. And prepare to amaze.

* An intimate effect designed for an intimate crowd. Control your angles.

ReCord by Rick Lax Stretch. Tear. Rip. Restore.

It's just an amazing effect and perfect as an opener. If you are good at sleight of hand and at controlling your angles, this effect will work just fine for you!

If you listen to music this would be an awesome trick to have because you have it at all times.

This is an amazing trick. I performed this in class to a friend of mine across the room and his reaction was priceless when I ripped my headphones then restored them. Amazing effect and there is no gimmick, it is all sleight which is fantastic. Worth every penny.

When I first watched ReCord, I felt my jaw drop. It's one of those effects that just really sinks in to your spectators. It's a closer for sure. Once you get the hang of the method, which, by the way, is ingenious, the effect is a real killer ESPECIALLY with teenagers. Rick Lax is an innovator in the magic community, creating magic every day with ordinary objects.

A fun, easy, casual effect which is fun to practice and perform. Quite angle sensitive but still a good effect.

Bhavneet • India • 03/17/13

This is an awesome effect. I figured out that how he broke and restored it but I have got no clue how he stretched them together. Go and buy it. It is only a bit angle sensitive but really amazes people.

Luke • Australia • 03/12/13

Wow this looks stunning! The stretch is easy to do but the rip and restore is crazy!

Markus • Sweden • 03/11/13

Great trick and an amazing tutorial. I love the rip and restore part.
I only gave this 4 stars because of the angles. You can preform this to max 3 people but it's still a great trick with an everyday object. Rick Lax is a really good teacher.

Robert • Florida • 03/10/13

I think this is another really cool idea from the mind of Rick Lax. I swear every time I go out and perform this people freak out. So get it!

Michael Lao • Thailand • 03/08/13

The stretch is pretty simple. I can figure the trick out by just watching the trailer. However, the tear, rip and restore are amazing and I don't understand how those were posible. Guess I'll have to buy this soon.

Jahid • London • 03/08/13

Very cool effect and really powerful as it's done with an ACTUAL everyday object.

Maxime • Netherlands • 03/07/13

The trick itself is amazing. It has two parts that are both visual and look great. The tutorial was clear, Rick explains everything very well, using different angles to show everything and in the end he gives some nice tips to make it look even better. Before watching the tutorial, I had already figured out the first part, but the second part is totally worth the download, even by itself. Though the trick is very angle sensitive, I like it a lot and I think I'm going to use it a lot when I get it down! Great work, Rick :)

Anthony • Canada • 03/07/13

This trick is amazing for YouTube magic, one on one magic, or even table magic. HOWEVER, in terms of perfroming in front of a group it is very difficult and angle sensitive.

Overall, great trick, good price, and fun to practice!

Great effect but sort of angle sensitive.

Teja Yendapally • USA • 03/05/13

Smart method with no setup. Four stars because it is a bit disappointing.

Amazing, I use it like a go-to effect.

Hunter • Thailand • 03/04/13

It is a great method, but it is very angle sensitive. At $7, it is very good. Ingenious method but for me it's a 3/5. Not as great as some of his other work here. That's just my opinion. Thanks.

A nice effect but it is very sensitive with angles.

Adam • Canada • 03/03/13

Once you get this trick down it looks amazing. You have to be careful with angles but it is still an amazing trick! Rick Lax has done it again!

Bryan C. • Sydney • 03/02/13

Everything about this trick seems impossible, to the point that my jaw literally dropped when watching that magical cord break into two pieces. Get this now!

AK • Japan • 03/02/13

This is impromptu, great ice breaker. Rick Lax is a true genius making this kind of magic.

You'll never regret this. If you love music, you also love this magic trick.

This piece of MAGIC is fantastic. As always shot and taught beautifully by Rick Lax and theory11. Do not hesitate to buy as it is one you will find yourself always performing. 5 Stars.

Xabi • Donostia • 03/01/13

The effect is brilliant. Simply brilliant. It looks so impossible, people actually can't even imagine how you do it! The method is very original, it'll make you laugh and you're going to love it. No need to say instructions and video quality are top-notch.

The only downside... In the product page it says 'no setup', but the first thing Rick explains is the 'secret setup'! It's a 2 second setup and it has no gimmicks, but this makes it difficult to perform it with borrowed headphones. Overall, it's an awesome trick and a great method without gimmicks, extra pieces... Just you and some headphones.

For the first time, a magic company is 100% honest when saying the angles with a trick are difficult (not bad, but difficult). I really appreciate this, t11 crew! You're awesome!

Very creative idea! Was able to learn it within 5 minutes of watching the video. Definitely will take some practice in front of a mirror to master the technique.

Looks beautiful!
Great Job Rick!
This one really amazes me.

Elliott • Chicago • 03/01/13

Beautiful illusion that is impromptu and uses a new piece of technology that everyone has. Apple's theme 'Think Different' applies aptly to the mind of Rick Lax. Amazingly creative and underpriced for the uniqueness of the effect and high-quality instruction.

Angie • Australia • 03/01/13

My first reaction: WTF?! It's so awesome. Definitely worth buying. Yeah, this effect rocks!

Caleb Bowers • USA • 03/01/13

This is a perfect effect for the 21st century because it uses a piece of technology we use every day. The price is also spot on. Good job, Rick.
