It's back... Double Back

Postby Jon Allen » Oct 13th, '10, 17:10



I have had a number of emails in the last few months asking about the availability of Double Back. Due to circumstances out of my control, I was not able to get them manufactured. However, I can tell you that it will be be available in a new format. It will, of course, come with everything you need to perform it. Also included is a DVD with handling tips, presentations and subtleties. It is being shipped to Murphy's by the end of the month so look out for it soon!

I am also trying something new with the packaging that I have never seen done before. I will be most interested to read people's views on it in due course and see if it catches on!

so Double Back's back? (did you see what I did there? I had a double "back" - oh please yourselves.)

Excellent news it was and remains an excellent effect - it even featured in the last Ipswich Magical Society Close up competition a few weeks ago (and the magician in question was runner up).

For those interested a review can be found here

I will have to get my tired old set out again I think...

So it's part of an award-winning act?! :-)

I have now put up the trailer for Double Back. Please see it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QUn7PPBb0tE

The new format is that I have provided a DVD going into much more detail than the original written instructions. It makes it far easier to teach and, I hope, far easier to learn.

The RRP will be $18 / £12

Although the trailer say you can buy it directly from me... you can't just yet. I am going away on the 19th - 26th and it is touch and go as to whether the DVDs will be ready in time. If not, I will be shipping them out once I return.

Thanks,
Jon

grrrr false advertising,
hehe

Man alive I love this effect. I assume it's you doing the teaching on the DVD Jon? Having seen your lecture I can't imagine anybody having any difficulty picking this up if so.

Yes, for better or worse, it is me on the DVD. I teach the handling for each phase of the routine as well as an alternative to the Elmsley Count. This brings it into the realm of 'now anyone can do it'.

Btw, if you don't have a barcode scanner on your phone, get one! The best one is i-nigma. It's free, easy to use and it will enable you to be part of something revolutionary...
