Whiplash is a hyper-visual utility gimmick that will let you vanish, transpose, and transform cards. Learn Josh Janousky's signature routine with the Whiplash gimmick: Whipped Across, his take on the cards across plot. Cards visibly vanish and reappear one by one at the fingertips, the final occurring in a spectator's hands.

Also, learn an updated variation of Oil and Water, a multi-phase sandwich routine, and a Monte game with a killer kicker ending. You will receive a custom gimmick printed by the United States Playing Card Company, ready to go immediately. In addition to the four routines, Josh shares how to repair and customize your gimmick - a new feature for gimmicks of this nature. It's an entire lesson on splitting cards, and is worth the price of the download alone.

Whiplash is angle proof and can be discretely hidden in any deck. The possibilities with Whiplash are truly limitless. See for yourself.

"Josh has this amazing ability to take an idea, and 'interstellarize' it. He takes an idea like Whiplash, and moves it into the 5th dimension. I LOVE his vision when it comes to magic and cannot wait to see what he releases in the future... which is the present... but will soon become the past. Ok... my head hurts now! And so will yours after you see this amazing trick!"
- Mike Eaton

"Once you have Whiplash in your tool kit, you will find yourself developing scores of ideas on how to make your routines easier AND more impressive. That's a great combination."

Great Idea Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on January 22nd, 2017
The gimmick has a Maiden Back! However, he does go into detail in how to construct a gimmick using your preferred design (e.g., Bicycle Standard Back). When I pay $20 for one gimmick and it is deemed not usable to me, I have to rate the value of the purchase on the idea. This is a good idea and a gimmick I plan to make at some point.

Fool Magicians! Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on February 4th, 2017
Not only is this gimmick brilliant, but Josh has over an hour alone on how to make it yourself. For those new to Josh Janousky, this guy is a master at bill magic and various gimmick. His creative genius is amazing. The method is so simple and ingenious that it will not only fool magicians, but amaze them on the simplicity. He goes over four effects using this gimmick in great detail. This truly is an amazing utility device that is only limited by your imagination.

Not That Good Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on June 1st, 2017
I was very exited to get this product. The shipping was fast and that was great. I practiced it for a couple days and when I thought I had it down I went and preformed it to my little brother. He say the trick the first time I did it. Now I might have needed more practice but it should be a little easier than that to fool your little brother. Then a couple days latter I was practicing alone and the gimmick broke. I wasn't doing anything weird with it I wasn't pulling on it and it BROKE. Its a cool product but it just isn't worth it.

Very Cool Gimmick and fantastic instructions Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on January 31st, 2017
I really like this gimmick and the instructional video.

You'll learn several cool routines, you'll learn how to construct your own, and you'll learn some ideas for other ways to use the gimmick for other effects.

Yes, the gimmick uses Maiden Backs. It's not an issue in a standard back deck, trust me. But, it did bother me enough to motivate me to construct my own. To *me* that's a plus. Others might just want a gimmick they can readily use. Thus 4 stars.

The instructions for construction are quite detailed, and I had no trouble following. Of course, I'd constructed stuff like this before. To be honest, some stuff in the instructions is better than when I learned similar techinques.

If you follow the instructions and allow yourself to fail a few times at constructing the gimmick, you will make very high quality gimmicks

I'm a fan of this effect, I'm a fan of this video, and I'm inspired to do more than what's taught!

So much fun to peform Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on January 28th, 2017
It looks so visual that sometimes I even fool myself when doing it. Also, on the video, Josh shows you how to make more gimmicks in case yours breaks or you just want to use different cards.

This is SO GOOD!!! Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on February 10th, 2020
Well finally it arrived and i'm really happy with it.

The gimmick it's really well made the only issue being the maiden back which was easy to overcome with buying a maiden red deck.
Video quality really good,Josh goes through everything in detail and even throws some bonus ideas. You will get used to it really quickly and it get you some really " WHAT?!" reactions.
If something happens to your gimmick you will learn in DETAIL how to make/repair your own so don't worry about it.

Also you'll have some funny moments from Josh :D

Overall this is something i see myself performing constantly.

Slow Response Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on April 5th, 2017
My gimmick has a slow response and "hangs". I know the video has instructions on how to tighten it but that means I have to go buy supplies and spend time fixing it when I'd expect it to work perfectly out-of-the-box.
