Hi everyone,

I'm trying to do a new routine. It's based on the trick Copperfield did in one of his shows.

Effect: Someone picks a card out of the deck. Signs it and puts it back into the deck. The deck is magically pushed into a balloon. The magician blows up the balloon. He shakes the balloon and the cards are mixed. He pulles out the signed card.

My problem: I want to use the PRESSURE technique to put the deck into the balloon (same technique as 'phone in balloon-effect') so I need to find a way to switch the one deck in balloon, with a real deck into balloon. Any ideas for this switch?

Thanks!

Jan

What you've just described is Jay Sankey's Airtight - I should start there.
