Gypsy Balloon by Tony Clark

The classic Gypsy Thread has been elevated to new heights!

“This is one of the strongest pieces I’ve ever created. I just used it to close my hit show “Masters of Magic” in the 1200 seat Montbleu theater in Lake Tahoe!”
– Tony Clark

“After seeing Tony do his Gypsy Balloon Routine, I was blown away. Tony has found a way to motivate and elevate the classic and powerful Gypsy Thread trick into a truly powerful piece of magic and theater. His routine is actually too good to release and I wish I had the exclusive rights to it. This is something I would put into my show immediately and I predict a lot of people will do just that.”
– Danny Cole

“The Gypsy Thread is a classic routine that needed a face-lift and Tony did it! It has such a visual impact for all audiences, both young and old. If you are looking for a NEW exciting routine, this is it! Silent or with music – the Gypsy Balloon is the way to go”
– Brent Geris

** Includes 30 feet of thread – (Helium and balloons not included)

Running Time Approximately: 9 min

Mind Reader’s Lucid Dream

The spectator freely thinks of any card (no force or peeks). The magician then tells them not only which card they are thinking of, but also cuts directly to the card and it’s three mates from a shuffled deck.

Mirrored Coincidence:

The magician and spectator each take half a deck of cards are split them in half, it is then revealed that they have cut directly to a four of a kind.

Off-centre Coincidence:

The spectator and magician each shuffle half a deck of cards and remember a card. The cards are then shuffled together and split into two, however amazingly, when cards are dealt out the chosen cards are at equal positions.

“Justin has created moves that are truly original and he performs them to perfection”

Dai Vernon

“Justin is an incredibly talented and prolific creator, thinker and technician with playing cards”

Benjamin Earl

“Justin is one of the best card magicians I know, his depth of knowledge and understanding of card magic is inspiring”

Joseph Barry

“The sheer quantity of Justin’s output is impressive – the consistent high quality is remarkable”

Fake cut principle:

The aces are convincingly lost into the deck and the pack is shuffled. However, you are able to freely cut to an ace anytime you like.

Illogical controls:

Justin explains five illogical card controls, which he uses effortlessly to control single, or multiple cards.

Spectator cuts a run of seven:

Justin’s take on spectator cuts to aces where the spectator cut to ace through to seven in perfect numerical order.

Strip cut aces:

A blue backed deck is shuffled and the four aces are produced one at a time. Not only have you found the aces but also they are now the only cards with a blue back, as the deck has now turned red.

This is, quite simply, the strongest effect Caleb has ever devised. He closes his shows with this trick. As a bonus, Caleb explains Mark Tams’ “M.A.T.E.”, a coincidence effect from a shuffled deck that makes the perfect lead-in to “26!”
