I fish this old topic to add my recent experience.

I ordered this effect before Christmas and I planned to perform it every time I met someone.

Unfortunately I could not put this plan in pratice.

I received the card glued together. Or better, they were not glued, but assembled when the science friction was still fresh.

Also, the spry was not applied well.

The product was applied with abundance and started to peel off. So the card don't "stick" anymore but skip and slide making a mess. It's almost like handling a normal card.

I own science friction and I already experimented a bit, so I know what I'm talking about.

I'm unsatisfied because I have to clean the cards, all of them on both sides, and apply science friction again. A tedious task wich I already paid in full.

What's worse is that I wrote to Christian on 7 of january and waited for an explanation till now. I never received an answer.

So, forum, please consider my experience as a mini-review if a non-so-happy customer

Sorry just don't see it, the girl doesn't really look ugly, and if you do it at a bar with drunk people they definitely won't get it. Every inch a lady has more impact.

I thought the chosen girl was hot and being playful.

This effect waited for its birth since January 2011, several issues had to be solved first as I had a certain easy to do handling in mind. I always had my prototype with me and everybody I showed it immediately wanted it.

This is so cool and no heat on the chosen card. Nobod sees that coming.

This is a great update from my original Night Out With The Girls effect. All new photos and a different method.

I remember this effect but with naked women and the kicker ending was a really large naked women (obese) that just appears from nowhere. I think you have made an obscene trick into something quite commercial. Nice job. My only issue is I still think the ugly girl is hot! Am I wrong? Smile


That was a trick named "every inch is a lady" Smile

Every Inch A Lady was also my effect.

I didn't think the point was ugliness, but weirdness. To me she looked kind of bizarre, which was the point, I thought.

Fortunately, most performance venues are not populated by drunks Smile Not all, but most (depending on one's clientele).

Agreed - for drunks, you need something that has no hint of subtlety! Smile
My ex-cat was named "Muffin". "Vomit" would be a better name for her. AKA "The Evil Ball of Fur".

When I watched the YouTube video I came directly here to figure out what I was missing. It appears I wasn't missing anything. I have a different photo was chosen one which looked a little more off.

I just would never do this type off routine outside a bar for a paid gig.

I duo like the continued use of the magic liquid in a can, some really great stuff.

Maybe it doesn't seems so weird on the demo because that lovely redhead has one finger over her mouth and the effect works stronger when both the eyes and mouth are turned, as seen in this article by Leif David

NabilT,

If that is what the pictures look like than I would agree, the mouth seems to be key, and the finger over the mouth may be the issue with that specific picture in the demo.

Steve Fearson now has this available for sale on his website. I'm still on the fence about it.

How about this? Has it been resolved yet? Coz Chris hasn't said anything about this until now.

I'd like to put my order in, but if I end up with the same problem as him, it won't be good.

I'm trying to decide if I should get this or Genetics by Goodman.
