Signed cards slowly phase into existence, and are erased into oblivion with a wave of the hand. This three-phase routine is packed with slow-motion, mind-melting visual moments, and impossible surprises. A crazy visual sandwich effect ends with an incredible transposition.
With a slow wave a signed card appears piece by piece in between two cards. It's actually there in between the cards! It then vanishes just as visually to be found in the pocket. As an added surprise the card magically changes position with the sandwich cards.
Kyle Purnell has created an incredible visual piece of magic with an ingenious method and many surprising moments. The secret is a custom-printed, hand-made device. It's easy to use, yet it creates impossible looking, visual moments that last. No flaps, no elastic, no moving parts, hinges, magnets or optical effects. Kyle has fused a clever card gaff with easy to do sleight of hand to make a high impact routine audiences won't belive from begining to end.
Just add the gaff to any normal deck and you're ready to do the main routine in its entirety. No table needed and for the card to pocket finish, you don't even need a pocket!
Cross Fade comes complete with instructions taught by Kyle Purnell. You'll learn an incredible three phase routine with a full deck and it doesn't stop there. Kyle also teaches a time travel routine using just a few cards and a plastic sleeve protector. A card travels back in time in an incredibly visual way. It's a great little packet miracle you can carry with you anywhere.
"What a clever gimmick. Quick, visual, easy to do, and with a surprise kicker ending that hits hard- love it" - Bro Gilbert
"Kyle's brain works on an entirely different level. CrossFade is a super clever, super visual worker!" - David Jonathan
"Cross-Fade is officially my favorite Kyle Purnell effect. Its visual nature is matched only by its eminent practicality, and you bet I will be doing this. Wouldn't you?" - Eric Stevens
A trick, the more practice the better you get, it's all in the performance and handling, effect is very good, but as a hobbyist it's a bit harder than some tricks because it needs more performance, I managed to break the gimmick using it to much and probably being clumsy,it is fixable though. If you can get it right, it's a great trick, enjoyed working on this

Great effect that uses a simple gimmick for some great visuals
The tutorial is very well presented by Kyle Purnell and like the fact he went over left handed and right handed being a lefty with cards myself.
The main routine is so good to practice and looks good in front of the mirror.
Also Quick delivery from Alex as usual and the complimentary item I received from Alex was a nice surprise.

This matches the TCC mini baseballs exactly and perfect for the first load for the cup. Was going to buy another for the second load but might go traditional and use a lime.
I had heard good things about this book, so decided to pick it up. It's a great read full of great effects like colour changing knives, to sponge balls. But the best bits are the little details and the small changes you can make. Well worth picking up.
