You get a choice of 2 but you can change the card if you wish.

A lot of you will have what is required, if not you can purchase them to give you more options.

If it is like proton - of course. Or one of two possibilities.

Saysold1,

I am thinking a similar thought. I do a very similar routine that requires only a single gimmicked card. My routine ends with handing out the card (In the demo, it would be the KS), as a souvenir. My patter is different, it is about everyone has a card they are drawn to and will subconsciously know where it is in the deck. Also, the deck is a regular deck and is fully examinable at the end of my routine. Maybe I should market the routine.

I too don't see how this is a big improvement.

Well as Pablo said those who have owned Proton for awhile (I've had mine for over 20 years and made my own up) could pretty much gather what the alternate routine is just by watching the demo.

Alright I will step away.

For those that have never heard of nor owned Proton deck (Camirand Academy) then you might dig this.

IKJ - sounds cool maybe you should market it?

Hi Bret
Obviously opinions are personal, subjective and If they are based in respect for the art, understandable.

Polarity isn't a breakthrough at all, and trying to judge it in that manner is not fair. The same as your great SvenPads. You took a classic prop and make it better. No innovation, rather new options.
This product is about giving the interested performers new options with this special deck known as Proton Deck but also known in other ways. This is new in my standards because adds new handling ideas, themes and optional phases that expand the basic use to more potential interesting areas.

I know that for some members and performers this is not enough to appreciate this release as a valid new product, and I can understand, but I defend my extra ideas applied in here as original.

Is this a table hopping effect? Much reset?

Pablo,

You are right. it is probably unfair to talk about "improvement". At most, it is just one person's opinion. Yours is simply another take. After all, nearly all magic is just a progression from something that came before.

I wish you the best with your project.

Exactly, this is my opinion, subjective and always sensible to respectful argument.

All the best for you.

Perfect for this context. Just a natural 2 seconds of movements/re-ordering (even in front of your audience) and you are ready again. Not instant reset in my opinion but 2 seconds... which is good for table hopping.

If it's the same card each time then I would never use for table hopping.

Yes you can there is only 1 card that needs changing to change the outcome.

Pablo -

With respect I don't think comparing the SvenPads to your release is at all comparable nor valid my friend.

The SvenPads use an innovative manufacturing process to within 1/16" tolerances and many new styles including post it notes. They are a product - not a new routine.

Let's not compare new routines to new products. That's a stretch.

Wishing you all the best with Polarity.

I understand Brett, sorry if my comparison offends you in any way. I think that your product offers a new great professional option. You are right that Polarity offer a new routine from an existing concept as the Proton Deck and for that same reason I think that is valid as a new release, because it adds new ideas that were not available in the past.

All the best

Maybe I can just add this handling into the booklet...

In my more than 25 years of doing magic, I have re-discovered that the most magical audiences are children. They make the best audiences because they don't hide their surprise, or joy, or happiness: all of which, my Magic show will bring to life.

Thanks Mark and Brett for the info. The fact that the outcome can indeed be different each time with minimal fuss I've put my order in. I like this a lot and am far too lazy to make up my own deck. I look forward to performing this one.

Wait, aren't you one of the gents who made the Proton deck? Why did you say that? I thought Pablo had your permission here?
