and I thought its Impruptu
how stupid

Yeah I got this to and wasnt really so happy about it, It could at least show some of the tricks to a real spectator insteed using that "Patrick" he used. The ideas is VERY good, with that yellow thing in the instruction DVD.

but won't the spectator see that yellow thing on the ground when he goes round to collect his card?

The instruction DVD explains how to hide the yellow thing.... and BTW who said anything about the ground?

I've just received my copy of this DVD. I've had a quick look through it and the guy's very thorough. Clearly CTW isn't quite as impromptu as a perfromance of it suggests, but then again, that's the beauty of performing it - it does look like the real thing

Full review to follow.

I have the dvd but I've only watched it once. Will watch it again and pay more attention to it

maybe i won't get this and get kaos instead anyone seen the criss angel card through window where his on the bus. lady signs card and it appears out the bloody window of the moving bus, now that is crazy!!!!! it on youtube somewhere.

I was impressed with the Criss Angel card thru bus window but I don't think you can buy it but if you think about it you will soon figure it out. The main effect of ultimate card thru window is in Pete Firmans book " tricks to freak out your friends" and thats cheaper than this dvd. It was definately a CUPs purchase.

Does anybody have this and Kaos? How do these two effects stack up against each other.

nice review but i have 2 questions


1) is there a setup (of the gimmick) before the trick?

2) do you build the gimmick or does the trick come with it.

It's actually a full expose of the area of card through window effects. Some have very interesting and complex gimmicks, in which case he shows you how to build them, while others are simply based on techniques and misdirection. The DVD is a DVD of ideas, rather than coming with a specific gimmick.

^^^ thanks

may have to get petes book i have heard good things about it.

People, don't get Pete Firman's book. If you are 8, you might be interested and suprised. In the video of ultimate card through window, is the trick were you throw the cards against the window and its on the other side and the woman picks it off the window, is that a special gimmick or is it just a helper? And the one where he throws the cards against the restaurant menu thats on the wall and a card is on the other side, is that gimmicked? And the one where he gets the card and just swoops it across the window and its on the other side, is that gimmicked? People, I need help, should i get this dvd??? I know the effect were u stick a card on the window already and the spectator chooses a crad and they don't know that the cards there because their back is turned to the window then you through the cards.. and... well, you now what I mean>? Is that the method thats used in the ultimate card through window? If it is, NO WAY am i getting the dvd!

plz help!

With UCTW there are so many more variations of the effect like ''deck through window.. which looks like eye candy!!

However... this is the most un-impromptu trick on earth!! You would almost certainly have to do this all in your own home.. there is no way you could be at your friends house and set this up.. unless he went to the bathroom for a long time.. even then.. you would need hsi permission to do some of the set up unless you dont mind paying him for any minor damage to his property

Most of the dvd bar I think 2 effects require this set up which in my opinion deems it totally impractical as I dont have guests round my house.. often.. and so pah!! this is so not worth the time investing in it as when woudl you perform it??
