Dr. Cyril Thomas – Banderaction

Once a decade, an unknown magician emerges from nowhere to revolutionize our art. Dr. Cyril Thomas is the one in rubberband magic.

” Cyril is one of my favorite rubberband creators. His methods are amazing and very visual. Just Buy it!” – Joe Rindfleisch

“Dr. Cyril Thomas is the future of rubberband magic” – Hanson Chien

In this project, you will learn step by step how to perform 7 miracles that are among the most visual never invented in rubberband magic. And the best part of it? All of them can also be performed in spectator’s hand. Imagine the wonder they will feel when a band will disappear, reappear, penetrate, merge or change color on their own innocent hand and kept as a magic souvenir! This is not a dream, this is not a phantasm, this is Banderaction.

No gimmick involved, all these gems only use regular rubberbands and insanely creative and novel methods directly from the future!

Dr. Cyril Thomas is a French lecturer in psychology and in this project, he will guide you step by step to learn in details all the subtilities behind each moves and how to perform them impromptu.

Here is what you will learn in this very unique journey :

*** The rubber hand illusion: make a rubberband penetrate the spectator’s hand after showing it both sides. The fairest and most visual hand penetration never invented.

*** The quantum paradox: make a rubberband jump from your hand to spectator’s hand. Already fooled? This is just the beginning. Then, you make it jump back on your hand with no apparent move of your fingers! Now you can be fooled.

*** Depersonality trait : in a blink of an eye, swap a rubber band that is placed around spectator’s hand with the one that is around your own hand. A pickpocket 3.0 demonstration.

*** Synusoidal phase : make a rubberband penetrate spectator’s fingers twice. Another reputation maker from this project

Alex Hansford – Gödel

Gödel by Alexander Hansford - e-Magic Store

Gödel is an innovative face-up color change from the mind of Alexander Hansford. With a wave of the hands, cards transform under direct scrutiny. Not only will you receive two additional routines with your purchase, Twisting and Sandwich, you’ll find Gödel to be an incredible utility for the effects you already perform.

Although difficult to master, Gödel is taught in 45 minutes of intricate detail. Gödel is without a doubt the next addition to the arsenal of the modern magician.

Twisting

Twisting is an insanely visual update to the classic effect, Twisting the Aces. Four Kings are displayed and with a slight shake, each begin to turn over in three distinct climaxes. After the second reversal, Gödel is employed to complete the routine in the most striking way possible. As an added kicker, the once face up Kings are then changed into the four Aces.

Sandwich

After having two cards selected and lost in the pack, two black Jacks are waved above the deck only to have one of the selections appear between them. Both sides are shown throughout the effect, destroying any guess your spectator might have towards the method. With one final and extremely open wave, the selection between the Jacks changes to the other for an astonishing finish.

A Different Side of Me by Joshua Jay

This is a special compilation of six of Joshua Jay’s downloads that are also available separately on Penguin. When you buy the tricks as a set you save over $ 20.

    1. Cornered – An ingenious new concept that allows you to reveal a borrowed bill virtually anywhere! Borrow a dollar from a spectator, tear off a corner, and hand the little piece to him as a souvenir. The bill disappears. Ask him to remove his wallet. Ask him to reach inside. He’ll find his bill–complete with missing corner–and it matches! Absolutely no stooging or pre-show work.

 

    1. Elevation – This is the classic Elevator card trick reworked. Virtually no sleight of hand and a brand new ending nobody will expect!

 

    1. Big Deal – A card revelation with a fireworks ending. A card is selected and shuffled back into a deck. With a demonstration of cheating, the performer locates the selection… but he also manages to find a perfect blackjack hand, a Royal Flush, AND a perfect Bridge hand (all thirteen Hearts!).

 

    1. Credit Cash – Remove a credit card from you wallet and ask, “Do you guys prefer credit…or cash?” As you talk, the credit card between your hands visibly melts into a twenty-dollar bill.

 

    1. Impossible Three – A spectator cuts a borrowed, shuffled deck into three piles. She looks at the face card of one pile. Your back is turned throughout the process. In merely assembling the deck, you’ll ascertain the identity of the chosen card. This impossible card trick will fool even the most knowledgeable magicians.
