Hey guys,

I've been looking at two card stab effects. The first one is Stab by Luke Jermay, which is the display of throwing a joker into a fan and having it land next to a selection.

The second is Stabbed in the Back by David Williamson, which is basically the same thing, but at the same time different, as it is shot from the back into an un-fanned deck.

Basically, I'm looking to incorporate a card stab into my routine, and was wondering which one of these is more versatile, fairly impromptu, etc. I'd like to be able to do this as a closer or middle piece.

Thanks guys!

Ian

If you want to make it look like you have superb skill, Stab by Luke Jermay would be the perfect choice to add into your routines. However, if you would like a simple card stab, then Stabbed in the Back would be a good choice. However, Daniel Garcia has a wonderful effect coming out in his new projects in August called William Tell. It's a card stab with a kicker ending. Very great effect, people go nuts!

I was thinking about this idea, and came up with a little routine... It's probably not original...

Check it out:

It'll be easy to figure out for you, but it hits hard on laymen... Pretty cool effect...

Rneogy,
I loved the effect but the handling definitely needs some work. You flash quite a bit and you can tell there is some awkward handling. I am not saying I could do better, but IF you can nail this handling to look smooth....wow...it will be an amazing effect.
Good work my friend.
