I think that both methods will get the same reactions from your spectators.
He just explains the sleight method, look at the clip after in black and white. Looks much cleaner, just do it like that.
Of course both methods will get the same reactions. To them, your doing the same thing.
Anyway, I'm done with Thread and I am overall more than satisfied and very happy with how it turned out. Wayne once again gave way more than we payed for and I am very grateful for that. I always love Wayne's DVD's over most DVD's because Wayne just puts so much more into them. Take a DVD like Control. For anyone who knows the method, you should know that its a very simple concept. However, Wayne takes that small little concept and makes a 2 hour DVD out of it. The DVD is not only very entertaining and teaches the effect you payed for, but he talks about magic as a whole. He really makes you think about who you are as a magician. He makes you rethink yourself, who you are now, who you want to become. I always feel inspired after watching Wayne's work to just try new things.
I'll probably review this one in about 2 weeks or so. I want to spend time comparing both the DVD and the download, trying both methods, and trying the Gypsy Thread effect.
However, from my first impressions, I can safely say that this effect should be bought. There is more than just magic taught in it.
