Even with a video there seems to be no benefit to this over any other switch as That box is unnatural and why would you have both decks in there?

Well, I just got notice that there's a trailer: https://vimeo.com/335739377. I'll withhold commentary and let it speak for itself.

Well, I applaud them for releasing a true video. Though, now I can see why they didn't make one in the first place. For me, using a black box to carry decks of cards is strange. I don't know, maybe it's just me.....

Just need a guy with a camera behind the spectator so they can turn around and show the camera at the appropriate time

So it's just a d**k sh**l that looks like a weird black box instead of a card case? For $50? And that rather un-subtle switch is the best they can do? Pass.

I normally love Wayne's releases. This is aweful. The routine and demo shown on Vimeo is lacking any thought. "Cards isolated in box"...then taken out again to be shuffled. Bad! The switch itself is dreadful. And there is no reason for a plastic black box. I suggest Shawn Fahquar pocket switch or Cold case or even better the deck shell.

I applaud them for showing you exactly what it is at least. Better than lots of other vendors.

I'll never forget seeing Dill do this for me at his shop. I was baffled. Then at the end he handed the deck to me and said "Are you familiar with rough and smooth?". I had a glimmer of understanding until I spread through the cards and felt like I got smacked over the head!
