In-Air by Mickael Chatelain

The Effect
A card is selected by a spectator. The magician also selects 3 other cards from the deck.
When the spectator reveals his card the magician show his 3 cards; these are all different from another. But then the magician waves his 3 cards over the selected card and they all become the same suit as the selected card. A super visual color change of 2 cards! Don't blink, or you will miss it!


Cost
€ 36.00 (£ 24.92)

Available at: (this is where I bought it)

My Demo Video

I do not know if this trick is sold anywhere else (in the UK for example), but it is created by a belgian magician named Mickael Chatelain.
Maybe if you ask your local magic shop, they might be able to order this trick for you.


Difficulty
1= Easy to do
2= No sleights, but not so easy

Yes guys, it really is this simple. Maybe 1 sleight is used, if it even is a sleight :)


Review
This is an awesome effect. I really love it! I cannot believe how simple it is to perform this trick. Maybe it is a bit pricy because you only get a gimmicked card, but the effect is well worth the money.
Just check out the link to the video I made and see for yourself. It is an amazing effect, I just wish I came up with this idea.
There is no difficulty in performing this trick, however, it is not a free selection, so a card must be forced. This is the only sleight used in the whole process :)


Overall
9/10.

Yes, nothing is perfect :) The only problem there is with this trick is that it is not immediatly examinable. But the effect is simply awesome.
I thought the price was a little high, but as you can see, the effect and the gimmick are brilliant, so therefore I give this trick a 9 out of 10.

Sounds great... thanks for that, Slyszer!

Couldn't easily find a UK supplier with a quick UK Google but, if anyone's looking for one, there is a feller on UK ebay selling these: http://tinyurl.com/pkm7v . No cheaper though but it looks authentic and the seller has 100% feedback on over 3000 transactions so doubtless genuine and not ripped off...

I know that Alakazam do some of his stuff, I was going to post today actually and ask if anyone knew how good it was so thanks guys for saving me the effort!

How long do you think the card'll last? I'm assuming it's pretty non-examinable.

I think it will last pretty long, depending on how often you use it offcourse ;)
No it is not examinable, but as said, only 1 card is gimmicked, so only 1 card must be switched for a regular card :)

If we can sue McDonalds for making us fat and cigarette companies for giving us cancer; why can't we sue Smirnoff for all the ugly gits we've sh*gged ??

I found someone on ebay who is selling it in America, but the only problem is he is charging 50 dollars a pop and I do not have that kind of money.

:cry:

Don't you have a magic shop near you?
If you have, ask them, big suppliers of magic shops like Murphy's Magic Supplies DO sell this trick to shops, maybe also to your shop.
Just ask if they can order it! :)

Trick looks great. I mean even when you slowed it down on the video there is no obvious movements. If I can find this I will be picking it up.
