While my wife and I were at Disneyland last night I bought this item at the Magic Shop there and for $19.00 you just can't go wrong with this. I was wondering how many of you have this and what you think? I've performed this twice so far to nice applause. It looks so clean and honestly it is one of the easiest effects I've seen in a long time.
Good magic to all, Eric |

If you go to Houdinimagic.com and type in Sticky Wicket it will take you to this product. It is very good. Basically you show 7 cards all have a hole in them and all are Blue back but one which is red. You pull this card up a little and put the stick (wicket) through the cards and show the red card is not bound by the stick. You then push down on the card and the card is pushed through the stick and joines the bound cards. You then begin to pull the cards one by one off the wicket and when you get to the red backed card it is indeed locked in place by the wicket. You pull it off and hand it out for inspection.

Correct website is actually Houdini.com, the search function of this website does not work, EVEN searching for the product while on same products page, and the description is cut off, since they apparently did not have the space to include a full description. Does not surprise me, if you have ever been in a Houdini store.
It's just too bad because the effect sounds interesting. Oh, and HERE is the direct link. |

Thank you Dooblehorn. Wow I see what you mean. I can tell you this much though it it very nice. The effect I mean. I'm glad I saw it demo'd at the Disney Magic shop. I passed it up on a previous trip because it just came in and they had not had a chance to work with it yet. But I do recommend this especially at this price. And it is easy to do but should be worked with to get that natural feeling in the handling. Also anyone who buys this if you ever have any questions I'm always on here and can answer you in PM's if needed.

I have one with a chop stick. (called the sticky rice miracle.... Not really on the name) They had to change it because it was politically incorrect. Hahaha
Everyone knows what a chopstick is but.... what's a wicket? |

The "wicket" in this effect is a little round stick with a little point at one end to go through the hole in the cards. It all fits in the plastic wallet that comes with this so you can easily carry this around with you. I'm telling you you guys will like this. It is a nice fooler and its just fun to do.
Well off to Disneyland again. You guys have a great day! Good magic to all, Eric |
