I recently purchased this trick, and although it is very powerful, the routine that comes with the trick is not as strong as other cups and balls routine. Firstly, the cups are very strong and sturdy, the balls are nice and big so they can be seen from ages away, and the wand is a very good component of this illusion. Secondy, the pouch. The pouch is excellent, as it is impossible to see the fruit inside it, and is very portable and convenient, but would be better if it could hold more fruit. Overall, this is a must have for people wishing to venture into the world of the cups and balls.
