Polarity - Red

(Based on 1 review)
Injecting a thought into someone's subconscious is a feat to remember, but let's take this card trick a bit further. Ask your spectator where a specific card is in the deck. Naturally, they won't know because they have just thoroughly shuffled it. You announce that subconsciously they already know where their card is. Have them deal the cards onto the table until they 'feel' like they have reached their selected card, they then place that card face down on the pile.

You display the entire deck to reveal that the one card they were capriciously looking for was the one card that they placed face down!

With Polarity, your spectator doesn't just shuffle the deck; they also deal the cards and select their own card. The best magic is the magic that your spectator controls and Polarity gives them the freedom to control the performance with the outcome that you want.

Overview

Is it mentalism? Is it power of suggestion? Is it thought implantation? Is it a presentation is memory? Yes, all of them! This is a very devious and ingenious effect and the nice thing here is that the deck does all the work and similarly so do your spectators. For the main part of this effect in which the card is revealed, you are not handling the cards, your spectator is. It is truly a miracle. The beauty here is that there is nothing to make, no arts and crafts are needed, once to you have deck in your hands you are ready to go.

Effect

Injecting a thought into someone's subconscious is a feat to remember, but let's take this card trick a bit further. Ask your spectator where a specific card is in the deck. Naturally, they won't know because they (and two other people if you want) have just thoroughly shuffled it. You announce that subconsciously they already know where their card is. Have them deal the cards onto the table until they 'feel' like they have reached their selected card, they then place that card face down on the pile. You display the entire deck to reveal that the one card they were capriciously looking for was the one card that they placed face down!

Is it mentalism? Is it power of suggestion? Is it thought implantation? Is it a presentation is memory? Yes, all of them! This is a very devious and ingenious effect and the nice thing here is that the deck does all the work and similarly so do your spectators. For the main part of this effect in which the card is revealed, you are not handling the cards, your spectator is. It is truly a miracle. The beauty here is that there is nothing to make, no arts and crafts are needed, once to you have deck in your hands you are ready to go. I was performing this for my wife within minutes just to see if it worked and it did. Obviously with more practice everything will flow much nicer.

Product Quality

The deck is a regular deck with an enhancement that can be ‘taken care of’ after many performances but should last a very long time. The other secret to the deck that make this all possible will never wear out or ever have to be replaced. Confused? You won’t be once you see hove this marvel works.

Ad Copy Integrity

All is exactly as described and in addition to the basis effect which is shown in the demo, more handlings will be taught. Also, you will learn more about stacks, false shuffles and cuts that you may or may not already know. Just this is certainly worth the price of admission. The included 45 minute DVD is excellently produced, detailed, well shot and sound is exceptionally clear. It is jam packed with great gems.

Final Thoughts

You will need to utilize some audience management. As mentioned above, the spectator is for the most part handling the cards so you want to ensure that the directions you are giving them are slow, clear and concise. Remove something from the deck and it can be use as a normal deck. Use the deck for some previous effects than casually ‘add’ it convincing them even more that it is just a regular deck without having to say it. Polarity is definitely a great buy and addition to your repertoire.
