Crazy Dazzle

I always wanted to do Alex Elmsley's Dazzle, but it was almost impossible to find the cards needed for this trick. Now, these guys have done it and have produced a very cool set. The designs are very nice and give a good contrast for the color changes, the number of repetitions is just right and the quality of the cards are great. This is important, as the moves have to be performed smoothly, and you don't want cards that soon get sticky. A nice feature: There are some extra cards to practice with, which will also save the cards from wearing out too quickly. In the original handling by Alex Elmsley there are two moves which are not easy to do, especially if they have to be repeated and performed at increasing speed. One of these moves has been eliminated in this version, so the trick is easier to perform (although I personally prefer the original handling). Crazy Dazzle is one of the few tricks that get better and funnier with each repetition. A fun trick to perform.

I have always wanted to do this trick but getting the cards has always been a challenge. The cards are well made. I would say similar to bicycles. The tutorial is pretty good. Took me a while to get used to the accent but it's a good tutorial. If you want to perform this Elmsley trick I highly recommend this set. Get it, it's great!

Like another reviewer stated, I've always wanted to perform "Dazzle" but putting all the necessary cards together would be a royal P. I. T. A. The cards are beautiful. And when you consider that these cards, some gimmicked, are less that 2 bucks each, this is an outstanding value. Looks like it's time to polish up that Elmsley Count!! A great routine and a colorful selection of cards. Enjoy!

I purchased this as an anniversary gift for my husband. He was excited to receive it; however, when he opened the cards and read the instructions, the instructions were in Spanish and had to be translated into English to get the password. When he translated the Spanish to English the words went back to Spanish. He emailed Vanishing Inc. and explained the problem and they were able to correct the problem. He is now happy with his gift.

I love, love, LOVE this trick! For a couple simple moves you get so much bang for your buck!!

Spectators watching this are more amazed with every successive change! It seems utterly impossible!

This is def going in my top drawer of effects!

I highly recommend this trick, but PLEASE DON'T BUY IT! I would like some exclusivity.

I've liked Dazzle since I first became aware of it back in the early 90s when the Elmsley books were released. The original handling required a half pass right before each Everchange count (6 in total). Even when Elmsley is performing it, it looks too "moov-ey" to me, so I never used the trick. I did have fun doing it for myself, though.

The new handling eliminates the half pass which makes the effect much more usable for me (and i guess for most other people as well).
