Hello! a question..
I have a streetshow in 3 months and I would like to make Head Drop Trick.
So :
could you give me some advices ?
Where can I find the best cutomize Head Drop?
I ve seen the Tora's model...but the man need to let hands on pocket.
I like the one , do cyrill Takayama( Coz very impresive)you know where I can find it ?
Thanks
Pat

P.S : 1 more question , I am looking for a "natural wig" I mean like Kevin James use with Chaplin act and vaum cleaner.. some help ?

There different types on the market.
But there is one problem: it's not an
illusion easy to perform surrounded
(because you're talking about
a street-performance).
TV-performances don't give
always reality !

Yes! thanks john , I know this illusion.. and I am working with a backdrop curtain. so I hink it will be ok. but could contact me on private to tell me what is the best types of Drop Head. thks

Hello PatBalloon,

Anybody correct me if I'm wrong., but I think there are only two authorized versions of the Drop Head Illusion, and they are : One created by Cyril Takayama and the second one created by Rafael from Belgium (different technique). Since they didn't authorized anybody to build and / or to sell them, all Drop Head Illusions on the market are ripp-offs.

You could still try to get in contact with Rafael, since he is often here on the Café.

Thanks.

Oliver.

Ok Thank you !! I didn't know that !! thanks .

I think the best head drop for you could be the one of Cyrill.
The illusion of Rafael has some drawbacks for you.
Also important is, that the backdrop must have closed sidelines !
For your last question: search for someone who can make you
a "perruque".
Or search for a shop that sells "cotillons"; perhaps they can
help you.

Ok, and where can I find the cyrill one ? somebody sold it ?

Cyrils version is not (yet) for sale!
Some dealers have put out rip-off version but they are unethical and badly built.

Rafaels version is also not for sale or Copy (as some have found out the hard way lol) and like John said this version is for stage use only and has some drawbacks over Cyrils version.

Maybe one day an authorised 'Head drop' will be for sale but till then we need to wait on it's release !!!

What kind of routine in the market do you suggest in the meantime, waiting for Cyril or Rafael?????

thanks/Fabio

Anything you want as long as it is not a ripoff. I have had to wait over 40 years for a trick to be released to the magic society.

If you don't think you can wait that long, I don't know what to suggest. Use one of the copies and find out for yourself that it is not built correctly.

Anyone can do it just needs to find his/her own way.
