Black Tiger ID

Postby marc0 » Sep 12th, '06, 19:39



Hi guys!

I want to get some information about that deck.
First of all i gotta say that i have ordered it 1 hour ago.

So i know what i can do with this deck.
"Spectator thinks a card - u pull out the deck and the card he thought of was the only card whos back to back.

Dose it works so easy as they tell at ellusionist.com?

I cant believe...u must do some handwork to get that card back to back...imagine that!

Thanks for some helpfull answers!

Greatings

Marco :D

ID is a classic of magic and one of the only gimmick card effects i use in my professional shows. A little memory work but very easy to perform and always gets great reactions. no 'handwork' involved, well not as you mean anyway :lol:

It really is a great effect for both beginners and professionals, you will love this effect.

I started to learn when i was a child. I learned from Royal road to card magic, Modern coin magic by bobo and then Complete course in magic by mark wilson. I kept up the learning throughout uni etc and quite a few years ago i turned pro. I avoided the easy road of buying all gimmicks and learned sleight of hand etc. I do close-up, bizarre some mentalism and also a mad cabaret show. This year i opened up flash magic. If you want to know anymore then please let me know.

Begin with a deck of cards and the royal road to card magic. Or if you like DVDs then Born to perform or Royal road to magic DVD set.

I agree with the comments made on the ID already. However,

1. I would have bought a normal ID rather than a black tiger version to start with
2. You also need in my opinion a normal (ungimmicked) deck to compliment the ID as you can't do any other card tricks with it which will make it highly suspicious.

i got 2 normal decks...and i can also do some tricks with the deck like jumping gemini, 2 card or 4 card monte, back flip, erdnase color change, everything on palm, cuts etc.

i now its not much...but i know that i must begin with the normal deck.
i just bought that gimmik. why not?

HEy all,

Ive got a brainwave deck - I take it the principle for the ID is much the same? Unfortunately ive never gained the confidence to use my brain deck much, as the effect is wearing off a little. I hear deodrant spay is good to make them good again?
