whats the best gimick you ever had.

MY best gimmick is thumb tip,why it can be use for disapearing and apearing things.changes things,restore things. etc..
 
My favorite/best gimmick would actually be something that I have yet to own, but will soon. Ever since I started learning magic I've wanted to purchase the Ultra Smoke 2000.

I know it's not exactly a "gimmick", but that's as close as I can get to being in my "favorite gimmick" category.

I have it is pretty cool. I use more we color changes
 
Definitely the TnR gimmick, it's by far my favourite gimmick ever. When I finished making it I couldn't get over how damn awesome it was!

In saying that I have an idea for a gimmick that would create a nice effect, but I have yet to construct it and see how it plays out. Something to do over Christmas I feel. :D

I dunno I dont use a lot of gimmicks, but I would say TT is up there. Id have to say my distortion gimmick and Daniel Madison Change gimmicks are my fav. This is because I like mind blowing colour changes. That is why Im currently working on a Distortion/DM change gimmick.

Say their card is the 8 of diamonds, you show the 4 and they say no. You say is it close and they are like kinda. You shake it and it flashes into a 6 of diamonds. Then they say nope then you shake it and the pips move to an 8 of diamonds. Will be very hard to make but will probably be my fav gimmick ever.
 
my cards...wait...those aren;t gimmicked...prohbably one of my own gimmicks for one of my effects.
 
Can I ask why you think it's underestimated?

Just read the posts in this thread, only about 2 people, excluding me, mention the thumb tip. Everything else mentioned was "street magic-y." Also a LOT of newbies don't even KNOW what a thumbtip is let alone know it's power. Let's face it, in recent "street magic" history, there hasn't been many TT tricks have there? That's my opinion
