So coming out of the gate I should admit that I really like rubber band stuff. Psychobands does not
disappoint.
Some of the stuff is definitely knacky and even after watching the tutorials,
I still had to play around with certain positions a pretty good bit to actually get it.
Initially I was a little disappointed this wasn't an instant download, but I am actually glad it
wasn't. You get a bag(purse?) full of rubber bands in varying sizes and colors and plenty of them.
There will be a card in your package that has a link to a website and an access code. You can
download the video or stream it on their site. The good thing about using the site is you can
switch from trick to trick without having to go through an hour long video while looking for a
specific minute mark to see an explanation.
Every effect has a performance, an
explanation, and a walkthrough that really gives you the details you need.
Pros: Super
visual band tricks that I personally haven't seen anywhere else, multiple effects, a ton of rubber
bands, high quality tutorials, and some material that your spectator is pretty much guaranteed to
love.
Cons: This isn't as much a con with this product as it is with band magic
in general. Getting cleanly into certain positions in front of spectators seems pretty
difficult(looking at you None Transfer). It would have been nice to show some clever ways to get
into a few of the starting positions with a spectator watching you. Specifically the transfers.
The Pops you will be able to get into quickly and easily with just a tiny bit of misdirection.
Ultimately, it's a super awesome project that is well worth the money if you're into doing
some unique and new things.
Random Tip: use the None Pop to go into Rubber Thru Hand by
Hauss and Vogt and you have a pretty solid band routine on(in?) your hands?
