interesting concept, will take a while to master....
Young fingers will presumably be able
to master this, before old farts like myself.

looks great on video, but when I tried to learn it, wasn't easy to do at all. I've finally given
up.

This isn't a trick you're likely to master in five minutes. Remember the originator of the procedure
has been doing it for many years.

I was skeptical, prepared to be disappointed. When I watched the video I wasn't sure I'll pull it
off, and the first time not in front of the mirror, true, I didn't.
I returned to the mirror
(overall an half an hour practice all together) and went out again.
Man, the responds were
great !
I performed this one for adults only, so far, and there wasn't one person who didn't
want to know how it's done as much as I did when I bought this.
I actually add a little
demonstration of how it couldn't be done, after performing this, hiding the pinky without doing the
move, thus flashing it, to prove this is truly impossible.
Reputation maker !
I
read an interview with the creator prior to buying this about the creating and marketing process of
magic for magicians. It sounded like there's a chance in some cases the reactions are hand-picked. I
didn't buy that and I glad I didn't. This one delivers and that's a lot to say these days.
I buy tons of magic, here and from fellow magicians, and I've dedicated a large part of my life
to learning buy also to enjoying magic. Too many times what I bought for ten or more times this much
is disappointing.
For 10$ this is a bargain. For 50$ this is a bargain. The secret is a
simple one, but it's golden because it actually works !
Buy and amaze people. It's as
simple as that.

What you see is what you get.
Most trailers dont seem to give you the full effect but this does,
you actually perform it the way he does.
I am very happy with this purchase, i got it for $10
and think thats a steal.
truly impromptu, needs nothing but your hands
I will certainly be
using this in my routine and probably as an opener.

I think that everything anybody needs to perform this trick.... is included in your lesson. You are
very sincere and entertaining and provide common sense answers to prevent problems.
I
enjoyed this very much! I am 51 years old now... and my hands are not as limber as they used to be
when I was wowing the kids in my neighborhood... but even I can utilize Nick's wonderful trick to
wow my friends an audiences at a moment's notice.
In a word, this whole effect is simply
well done. Bravo!

I've known of Meir Yedid's work in this area for a long time. I never saw it done well though. It
seemed like every time I saw it done, it was performed by someone who had heard of the work but
never seen Meir perform.
Enter Nick Locapo, who not only put in the time and energy to
learn it properly, he advanced it to it's current form. This is a piece of art. To learn the
basics is very easy, but it's the subtlety and nuance he adds to this very well taught download that
make it work the money. The fact that he has been doing this for years in real world environments
shows when he discusses not only finger placement but audience placement as well.
I've
seen him do this in real life and it looks like trick photography. Finally learning all of the
individual pieces puts into perspective what a good trick this is. No one spends years perfecting
a single trick if it isn't worth performing. There is more than a half hour of instruction and
discussion of this single seemingly simple trick, something a lot of complex card and coin effects
down't get.
Simply put this is a well taught powerful effect that is worth the time an
energy to learn. I loved it when I first saw it. Now I'm thrilled I get to learn it myself for
those rare moments I don't have my cards on me and I need to nail someone to secure a booking.
Professional grade magic for $15. Nick should be charging way more.

I have Meir Yedid's work on this, and it is impressive. Meir does an act across the digits which is
fun to watch. I have to say, however, that Nick has taken this to a new level! REALLY! Nick's
vanish/removal are seemless. Even though he shows those of us with stiffer fingers how to assist the
disappearance, with a little work, the little finger can do the move on its own (and Nick does this
several times.) However, with Nick it looks similar to a retention vanish of a finger! It actually
makes you laugh (even though you know the secret) because you still find yourself looking in
disbelief with the removal/disappearance AND the return. I got this for 7.50-worth EVERY penny. He
also gives you a little routine you can do that lets the audience relax/groan, and then POW--- "
WTF?!? Did I just see what I thought I saw?!?!?" Great job Nick and I agree that most anyone should
be able to do this with a little practice/slight adjustments.
