> Convergence by Joe Rindfleisch and Dr. Cyril Thomas

Great Routine, but... Report this review

I applaud Mr. Rindfleisch and Cyril for the amazingly well structured routine. It unquestionably looks amazing. The big head scratcher (and borderline unfair trailer) was the ending. You can't hand out the band. You're doing something beyond impossible with an everyday object. The heat on that object as you complete the final phase is obviously white hot. You have to do/wear something most of us wouldn't be comfortable with to give the audience something examinable. Even if you were comfortable with that certain something, you none-the-less have to do the dirty work at a moment when the heat is on. For that I deduct two stars and question whether I'll ever perform this.

You thought it could be real magic ? I mean, really brake a band, really restore it, and give it for examination ? Mmmmm...

there are torn and restored card effects where you do just that. heck, there are even torn and restored rubber band effects that do just that. who said anything about 'really break (not brake)' a band. for all a purchaser knows, the band was never really broken. it's a handsome routine. I just didn't think it would leave you needing to do a switch at the literally the very worst moment.

What heat on the band? I go broken, to restored, to broken again; Just like the video teaches. The "restored to broken" moment is also a great effect, and is in fact your ripped to restored moment. It's just in reverse.
Its started broken and ends broken. You can even leave the broken band. Ends clean.
