There's already been a post about the Self-Tying Shoelace by Jay Noblezada, so I won't go through the effect, etc again.

I purchased the same effect, but a different type called "Animated Shoelace" by Jeremy Montcrief. I think it's a different technique from Jay's version, but I must say, I wasn't that impressed.

I'm not going to give anything away, but personally, I found the instructions confusing and the materials not strong enough. To be fair, it looked good before I actually 'hooked it up', but then when practising, I had problem after problem.

I've just ordered Jay's version as it has some good reviews, but I'm a little dubious. Has anyone else tried Jeremy's version and found similar problems or am I just being a fool...

*Be nice

As this isn't a review as such, I imagine you'll get better responses if its in Support and tips, or even Miscellaneuous

Better still.. why dont you make this a proper review.. even if it is a bad one

Both suggestions sound good to me. Perhaps Support and Tips might be better as it could be awkward to say too much without exposing things or being over-critical?

LOL I THINK THIS TRICK IS HALLAROUS

I don't think you need to doubt Jay's version, it works pretty well. No complaints. Theres a really short simple reset, but thats to be expected.

The only thing is rarely a person could guess part of the method, but a good magician should be able to handle that

Heres my video of it:
