Hi there, some of you has requested a review of "Nexus", well here it is:
What they say:
Borrow a keychain, a ring, and visually link the ring onto the keychain.
You know how long and how much work it takes to hook a key onto a keyring. But somehow, mysteriously, the magician merely touches a borrowed ring to a borrowed keyring and it is on it. This is Nexus

Price:
17.00 Us
Difficulty:
2, some use of misdirection and a bit of manipulation is required, the rest is acting skills
What I say:
Kevin Parker seems to have specialized himself in extremely visual magic effects, and once again he hits with "Nexus". As you can see in the demo video, the effect is very visual, no hiding or whatsoever, the spectator clearly see everything. The method is really simple to learn and you can perform it on 99% of the keyrings you'll rind (you might have some problems to perform it unto girl's keychain, you know those with everything but keys on them
). I said that the method was really simple to master, but to present it is another thing. It is not entirely angle proof and the use of misdirection is highly suggested. Thus, another really great effect that can be perform anywhere with any keyrings and rings. The videos itself is present in a decent format (14 minutes) and clearly explains (about 3-4 times!) the effect, the presentation and the how-to.
Have fun!
Highlights:
Highly visual
Gimmickless
Easy to learn
Cons:
Presentation might be a bit hard surrounded
Final Rating:
9/10
