I'm Looking For an Effect

penguincdude · Jan 29, 2009

I'm looking for an effect that's great for just on the spot. Something that requires simple setup something like arranging cards. I don't really want anything where you have to make gimmicks unless they can be re-used over and over and I REALLY don't want a trick that will harm any cards. I would prefer this to be instant download and have a kicker ending.

I know I'm being really specific but does anyone know a trick like this. And please don't recommend any 1-on-1's because I already looked through those.

d

on the spot by gregory wilson has impromptu effects using stuff besides cards, but it seems you want card effects.

in that case, the biddle trick, acr, or a "in the hands triumph" would be perfect.
you can find the biddle trick here in the 1 on 1 section, or on penguin's "born to perform" dvd.

even though you dont want any 1on1s, i reccomend 5 speed.

penguin has some instant downloads as well you could check out.

You've pretty much described a fairly large percentage of the magical lexicon. Pick a book, any book...

There are hundreds, possibly thousands of impromtu routines.

As praetoritevong said, pick up a book and read.

Cheers,
Ben

You don't like any 1 on 1s??
I've always got a deck set up for Invisible Reverse

gemini twins is a great effect with literally no sleights involved.If you can use the right patter then it would be great for this effect.
