This is amazing, best dvd for a memorized deck!! The one big limitation is: If you speak an other language than english in your home country, for example german lime me, you can't use the full potential of the shadow stack (spelling a card: three of diamonds / in german drei Karo). You will get something off the dvd, but the best tricks you cannot do, thats a pity....But overall great, maybe someone will come up with versions in other languages...:-)

Before buying this DVD, I had done no memorized deck work at all. And now I can't imagine doing card magic without a memorized deck. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this dvd and mem. deck magic in general. It's a great dvd with in depth teaching. It teaches plenty of card moves along with some very nice tricks. I really recommend it.

This is by far the best stack ever created, built in are seemingly infinite features, including the ability to spell to 26 diffferent cards, spell to 4 different 4 of a kinds (5 of hearts in trailer) It's also a pump deck, which allows you to fish for a freely selected card, it can be used to "synchronise" a 4 of a kind, and, the best part about it- any poker hand called for, with this stack any poker hand can be dealt to either your spectator or yourself, and with the way the stack works, you'll deal out the best possible cards in that hand, and your spectators are given a hand that is good, but never beats the called for hand. The greatest part about the stack is- it's a story deck. the story ends with a royal flush production, and is a perfect applause queue. My favorite trick is a ridiculously clean acaan, with a datebook. The spectator names literally any number between 1 and 52, then any date of the year, every date has a different card, their number is counted down to, to find that card. also included is a toolbox of countless false shuffles and cuts. In all, these and the hundreds of other things possible with shadow stack, are most definitely worth the price, and definitely the best money I've ever spent. The stack is actually very easy to learn, and once you do, a single glance after a year willl remind you. there is absolutely nothing bad about this project, and I hope you buy it. Anyone who might give it a bad review wants to keep it for themselves.
