 When we come across a trick that looks neat, we like to share it with our readers. When we come across a trick where it is demonstrated by a shirtless magician, we feel compelled to provide details to that population of magicians working in the niche of shirtless magic.
Lee Asher's Thunderbird is an incredible production of four aces (each a different suit) from bare hands and can be performed shirtless.
We have sung Mr. Asher's praises in the past. He consistently offers new magic within the skill-set of most magicians -- assuming they are willing to practice.
We suggested in one review that Lee Asher's Pulp Friction changed our world forever.
His effects are not automatic but they are astounding.
Thunderbird is a great example of Mr. Asher's work.
This is not a review -- we haven't had a chance to see the method -- but a tip. Mr. Asher's store on the web allows for instant downloads of most of his work including Thunderbird.
Picture bringing your hands together, in front of you, and an ace magically appears between them.
Without hesitation, you take this newly-produced card, and effortlessly split it into two aces. The audience's gaze is riveted to your hands. Fearful of missing your next move, they don’t even blink.
The third ace materializes right out of thin air - at your fingertips.
For the finale, with the cards held motionless, the fourth and final ace visually appears between the other three aces. Your audience can not speak; they don’t believe their own eyes.
Four aces sit attractively displayed at your fingertips, no gimmicks or trickery; just well-composed sleight of hand.
Instantly, you have engaged your audience with some of the most elegant and powerful card magic possible.
They swear it is some sort of high-tech optical illusion, but you secretly know - this is Thunderbird: The Modern Ace Production.
We don't usually hype products unless we think they are fantastic and/or we have some financial interest in their success. We almost never hype an effect before we know the method -- just in case.
Mr. Asher is an exceptional magician and his new effect justifies an exception to our tradition.
We hope to make this available very shortly here at MagicWorldOnline.com .. Just do a search for "Thunderbird Ace" to see if it's arrived in.
