I have great experiences with RADAR DECK. I never tried TOSSED-OUT in a show. They are quite similar, but I prefer the RADAR DECK. What's your favourite?

Both are exceptional. The major advantage of the tossed-out deck is that the entertainer never has to handle it after it is tossed out. It is hands off and so plays like mentalism. However, the radar deck is also extremely effective in the right settings.

I'm gonna say Radar deck---plus it's extra fun to watch Osterlind's performance on MM Volume 1 over and over again. Smile
Thanks! Scott B.

I'm not a big card person. I've found that if too many card effects are done, the audience grown inwardly thinking "not another card effect". I have so many of the things and still I say I'm not a card person. I can't help planning to obtain a Radar Deck, though. Perhaps I'll switch effects in performances, as it is a fabulous effect.

Yes, that`s right! I like the funny blond guy in the audience, I forgot his name, who is present in a lot of magic videos! His reactions are worth to watch the videos! He he.

I have never used the Radar Deck, but this is the reason why I love so much the tossed-out deck. I love the fact that the entertainer does not have to handle it again once tossed out.

I also love Max Maven's approach in his videos where he asks for the deck letting it fall to the floor. Sometime, I even pick it up once the effect is finished and give "it" away to a member of the audience

I love Max Maven's version as well I don't really understand what letting the deck hit the floor does to improve the effect. Yes, I get what he is saying but my impression is that the audience does not. I like to say, "There is something unusual about red, who is thinking of a red card?" If no one answers, I say "that is unusual" If they raise their hand I ask, "But you are not trying to send send me the word unusual are you?" They respond "no" I continue the word you are sending me is odd, you are thinking of an odd red card!" I must say that this little touch get a big reaction. Give it a try.
