You might remember my post earlier this year on another wonderful packet trick, well there is another one that I've done for years and continue to come back to it over and over again because it's just awesome, and that is Jon Allen's, Double Back .
This is a remarkably smooth effect, not difficult to do and packs a punch so immediately potent that it hit's you up high right between the eyes and down low hard to the gut as you watch two Kings openly switch places with a pair of 5's (my set). The effect is you show 4 cards, ask a few relative questions as you show the cards again, you instruct the specs to follow carefully as you put the two 5's on the table and clearly show the pair of kings up in your hands. And then BAM. The kings are instantly shown to be 5s and the two kings are now there on the table. Just beautiful.
I like this effect a lot because it is easy to follow, it brings together some nice moves and produces some great magic. Jon hit it out the park with this one and that it was an instant classic proves how far he hit it, as it's still going with no seeming sense of slowing down.
I still have my old set and it's wearing down a bit but still producing amazement. I had the one that came with the yellow manuscript but nice to see that it comes with a DVD now. Nice and I'd like to see the update of it someday.
As has been said around here, I'm mostly a coin guy but like to play with the cards a bit too at times. I've gotten better with them and can do a few neat things now to help break up all the coin work, but I still like the really good packet effects. Double Back is still certainly one of the very best IMHO, and anytime you do it, you've done a card trick that absolutely can't be beat. You don't have to be any such great card man to look like one if you do this effect. It absolutely blows the shoes off spectators, and is really cool to pull out and do anytime, anywhere. It's some of the most magic you will ever see with just 4 cards anywhere.
I still like other great packet effects like NFW, B'Wave, Capitulating Queens and even Lubor Fidlier's Royal Fantasy now and again, all fine packet tricks to be sure but Double Back can roll with the very best of them and if it's not in the conversation, well, then you're not quite talking about the best.
Finally, most folks go through a lifetime without producing any particular piece of perfection of their own or for others. Well, Double Back is perfection, and I thank the fine closeup magician, Jon Allen again and again for sharing it with us yesterday, today and always.
Take a look for yourself and see why it continues year after year to be so highly recommended. It don't get too much better than this.
And Now. Still Just Perfect!
