Hey have you guys seen this yet..
http://store.dananddave.com/venus-trap.html The Venus Trap is a single technique that will leave you with the power to control, vanish, change and switch a card. The Venus Trap is an updated handling of a sleight published by George Pughe way back in a 1949 issue of The Linking Ring under the title of, Pughe's Alternative to a Double Lift. Many magician's have since played with the idea and released their own version, such as, Bill Goodwin, Junstin Hanes, and Daniel Garcia, however, we have seen no one more cleanly execute the sleight than Chris Brown and are proud to present this video. |

Lets not forget Steranko's "Stealth Steal" (1962 I think) in Steranko on Cards and Dorian Rhodell's work with Pughe's Pass on "Avenue"!
As I've already commented in the Workers section, Chris has taken this sleight to a new level and done a hellava nice job teaching it! MMc |

Looks like it might be a tad angly tho'? (I think magicians invented the word angly. It's not on m-w.com)

I havent had a problem with angles.. as long as you don't make it seem like its supposed to be a move and act natural about it then you shhould be good.

I agree Bernardo! The extreme left could be a problem but that's just a matter of management and shade!

Good One! But, yes as long as you don't make them believe you did a move and perform it naturally then you should be good. Bernardo Rodriguez |

I just got this. Great little utility move!!
I've been doing something similar that I learned from Olivier Macia's Control Freak DVD. Its called the 'WOW control'. I fell into the venus trap easily after using the wow control for years. Very nice Chris and congatulations! V.

Few magicians in my entourage were doing that which has made this one of my favorite underground sleights that I expected to never be released... hehe As it's now released with Chris Brown great teaching and nice subtleties ideas (making the move nearly angleproof) it got my highest recommendation... well done Chris! The only regret... Really... is the LOW price..... ONLY 8$... On Demand section of DD store ...for a utility move that deserves no less than the Clipshift

Would you recommend buying the Venus Trap Tutorial or Chris Browns Lecture on P3 where he goes over the Venus Trap too?
