Leap of Faith by David Regal
$7.95Leap of Faith is a beautifully constructed piece of visual card magic by David Regal. It has all the elements that make for a good card trick including presentation, misdirection, and sleight of hand. The effect is straightforward; a card magically travels from one place to another. If you didn't get that, David makes it even more clear in the video. We love how both the effect and method take use of the kings. Check out Kevin Ho's Fourgasm for a great way to start the trick off. -

Nomad by Helder Guimaraes
$7.95In this trick, the performer introduces two decks of cards, one red and one blue. After shuffling his deck, a spectator is asked to name any card. The performer takes the two red kings from his pack and drops them on top of the spectators deck. Instantly and without the performer even touching the spectator’s cards the freely named selection appears in between the kings! The performer offers to do it again, only this time the spectator removes their red kings and drops them on top of the performer’s deck. Miraculously a card appears in between them! For a kicker finale, the spectator’s selection disappears from the performer’s deck and appears in the middle of the deck they have been in control of the entire time! -
T Change by Jeff Prace
$4.95The T Change from Jeff Prace is a stunning color change that's surprisingly easy to do. Additionally, unlike similar color changes, the T Change doesn't leave a reversed card in the center, so you're left completely clean. From an ordinary deck, a card is turned face up and inserted into the center. Without any cover, the card visually morphs into another. It's simplicity is magical and the T Change is a great way to reveal a selected card regardless of your skill level. -

Trixel by Valdemar Gestur
$7.95Several years ago we introduced you to Pixel, the visual masterpiece from David Jade that has since become one of our best selling tricks. Then came Trigger and now Valdemar Gestur is back at it with Trixel. In hindsight, Trixel is the reverse effect to Pixel. Instead of causing a selected card to leap to the top, free from the rubber band, you trap the selection with the rubber band after wrapping it around the entire deck moments before. The effect must be seen to believe! -
King Brand by Bill Goodwin
$7.95In honor of the 10 year anniversary of The Penumbra magazine, we're privileged to present this effect published in the first issue. For a decade now, King Brand has been a favorite trick of ours. Visually dynamic, the effect couldn't be simpler: The deck is removed and only four cards are presented, the two red Kings and and the two black fours. With one pair sandwiched between the other, they visually trade places under impossible conditions. The plot builds in three phases with the final trasposition happening in a spectators own hand. -
PCP by Kevin Ho
$2.95Four Jacks are counted between your hands as they seem to visually change into the four Aces. PCP was inspired by our very own Sixty Nine and is another great four-card revelation by Kevin Ho to add to your repertoire.
