Lost & Found – A signed card vanishes from inside a clear plastic wallet, then makes an impossible flight back inside. It uses an extremely clever method that will make you say, “Why didn’t I think of that?!”

Color Blind – Demonstrate your expert card handling in this simple, yet powerful Ace-cutting demonstration, which leads into a strong transposition.

Snowball Aces – In this mesmerizing routine, the ink simply melts away from both sides of the deck, then magically returns. It’s so visual and deceptive, you’ll swear it uses rough and smooth cards. (It doesn’t).
