Using two cards one with the word NO and the other with the word YES hand written on the face, you set your spectator some simple challenges. No matter which way your spectator decides to go you are always able to correctly predict the outcome.

Includes routines by Mozique, Peter Nardi, Looch & Simon Grant.

Decisions is a self working mental miracle taking you back to what mentalism should be, simple, direct & pure!

Each precision gimmick is beautifully hand made by the undisputed king of gaffed cards Rob Bromley.

No Sleight of hand required as the special gimmick does all the hard work for you, leaving you to concentrate on the presentation!

SOS The Self Opening Soda Can- A Soda Can (Which can be borrowed) is caused to open with the performer’s hands, a foot or more away from the can. Real can, real soda, really amazing! Can even be done while the can is held by a spectator. Several versions, PLUS a bonus effect of a self opening beer bottle. This will work with almost any berveage can in an aluminum tab container.

Alright, so what do you get and what IS this? Imagine, you show the spectators a (real) can of soda, or other canned beverage. (Such as Tea for instance.) You place the can on the table, or even in the palm of the spectator, hold your hands a foot or more AWAY from the can, and have everyone concentrate on the can. As everyone watches, the tab of the can visible and loudly cracks open and pulls upward! You then pour the beverage out of the can (Yes, really) and show the can to the audience for inspection!

Comedy Comeback Card

A deck of cards is shown, and cut to bring the Five of Diamonds (for example) to the face. It is then put into a clear holder to prevent any possibility of sleight of hand. Now the Five of Diamonds is deliberately removed and pushed it into the deck leaving the Six of Spades (for example) showing.

A handkerchief is flicked over the cards, and the Five of Diamonds jumped right back to the front. The Five is removed to show the Six of Spades is still there.

Following the popular six card repeat theme, the effect is repeated a second and third time, on the fourth try a Joker makes an appearance. Finally the Joker is put away and the Five jumps back for the last time.

An ideal Parlor or Club effect, the Come-Back Card comes complete and ready to perform. No complicated resets, good visibility, and strong visual impact make this an ideal item for your next seasons show.

Ready to perform with a deck of cards, holder, handkerchief, gimmick cards, and instructions.

The coin is signed!
The coin is really inside the Ziploc Bag at the end of both performances!

TeslaVision by James Biss

Nikola Tesla was a world-renowned Serbian-American inventor and physicist who is best known of his revolutionary work in the field of electricity and magnetism in the late 19th and early 20th century. Telsa’s patents and theoretical work form the basis of modern alternating current electrical power systems (AC) – including the AC motor which helped usher in the Second Industrial Revolution.

He was probably first introduced to most magicians in the recent film “The Prestige” as a character portrayed by Davie Bowie. In the United States, Tesla’s fame in the scientific community probably rivals that of any other inventor or scientist in history or popular culture. After his demonstration of wireless communication in 1893 and after being the victor in the “War of Currents”, he was widely respected as America’s greatest electrical engineer. Much of his early work pioneered modern electrical engineering and many of his discoveries were of groundbreaking importance.

Today, James Biss has finally revealled his application of Tesla’s revolutionary Wireless Impulse Technology for the first time – with incredible results! You’ll receive harmless but distinct sensations to the right and left side of your body, secretly delivered to you from your accomplice in the audience.
