Learning resources, tricks, and applications

This set has been specifically developed to offer magicians a seamless learning journey – from basic skills to more complex routines. The tutorials cover a variety of practical effects and teach principles that can be directly applied to your own routines. Here is a selection of the tricks explained in the tutorial:

• Cut to any named card – precise cut-to-index with a shuffled deck.
• Pexeso/Memory – find a matching card to a freely chosen card with a single cut.
• Cut with the Three of Spades – spectator names a card, which visibly appears after the Three of Spades has been cut out.
• Butterfly Stacking – quickly find quadruplets using targeted riffles.
• Impossible Divination – correctly name a freely chosen card, even if the deck has been shuffled beforehand.
• Butterfly Challenge – spectator chooses a card, the deck is stacked three times, and you identify the card, position, and stack.
• Butterfly Clocking – a quick deck run-through is enough to name the card secretly chosen by the spectator.
• Clocking with a Kicker – a hidden card is determined; three numbers are named after revealing to cover the final card.
• Multiple Divination – correctly name several chosen cards while standing back-to-back.
• Double-decker with a kicker – a card is drawn from a second deck, the order is remembered, and precisely linked to the chosen card.
• Double-decker that cannot be explained – a variation based on a classic card trick that offers puzzling potential.
