Such a highly visual routine that is strong enough that you need something to move on to or be able to ditch the cards as spectators are likely going to want to see them if they get a chance to think about it too long!

Another excellent trick from Mathieu Bich. After a few days, I got this down. A simple, yet devious effect. Awesome work Mathieu!!

I think this is a great effect, but I think that there are some drawbacks with the gimmicks. After doing such a highly visual routine, the first thing most spectators will want to do is make sure the cards are normal. I know cleanup is a good solution, but I think that you have to weigh the situation for yourself before buying this. On one hand, it might be worth some cleanup to perform such a visual routine, but on the other hand, very similar (almost identical) effects can be accomplished with no gimmicks, no setup, and no cleanup. That being said, this is a great routine, and I would recommend this to anyone looking for something with quick reward. 4/5 stars. Great work Mathieu!

I cant believe how the gimmicks can be done, and how easy it is to use them. I am impressed by that method and how many possibilities are there with that gimmick, totally worth it. Sorry for my bad English but I hope that you can understand me. This is art guys, buy it.

Awesome trick; however, this should come with the cards and not just the download. I have not been able to use this effect due to something not being available in India. 5 stars for the effect but 3 stars due to the unavailability of X in India.

I really like this trick and it isn't too hard to learn; plus, at $10, it's a great value!

Great trick overall. It is not that gimmicked, and after a couple days of practice, it looks great.

First of all, this trick isn't the easiest trick in the world so it will definitely take some practice, especially since this trick requires some unique handling that might give trouble to even some seasoned magicians. Having said that, that doesn't mean this trick doesn't deserve a good rating because some of the best tricks in the world require practice to master. The reason I give this 5 stars is because it is an all around great visual trick for the price, and with an easy to build gimmick that has solid cleanup, how can you not want to buy this? Just give yourself a few hours and some practice in front of a mirror and you will be good to go! Nice work once again Mathieu!

I wouldn't recommend this effect for someone just starting out with magic, however, I disagree that you need excellent sleight of hand skills to do it. It was a little tricky at first but after a couple of days of practice, I've been able to do it quite well. Very visual and fun to perform. Thanks Mathieu!!

If you have EXCELLENT sleight of hand, buy it. If you are a beginner, this video is USELESS FOR YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Twisting the aces has many variations, but this has got to be the best and most visual.

Great effect that's visual and powerful. Slightly disappointed that it was gimmicked but a good effect nonetheless. It is priced well and pretty easy to learn.

I'm going to begin by saying what I love about this trick is that it accomplishes the "twist" routine that Eric Jones does in "twizted" but minus one part of the gimmick. This isn't to say that I don't loved "twizted", because there is much more that you can do with it, but this gives a lay-audience the idea that it involves no gimmicks, although it does. I completely disagree with past reviewers saying that they preferred Shin Lim's "Shinsplint", put out by Ellusionist. Shin Lim's version is closer to Dai Verson's "twisting of the aces" although much more visual but is also much more difficult to accomplish well. Shin Lim put his in the category of "intermediate" but in reality, it's more advanced. This is easier than Dai Vernons original. However, Mathieu Bich had it correct when he said that this is NOT a twisting of the aces routine like Dai Vernons and therefore shouldn't be compared to it. Dai Vernons and Shin Lims the cards are flipping over one by one. This routine is cards flipping over, transposing and vanishing. This is why Mathieu Bich said, "at this phase there is a slight discrepency" but admitted that the audience wouldn't notice because it is not a routine where one by one the aces flip over by suit. I'd say that it's visual impact is better than all other versions and although it's gimmicked a lay audience will never find out the secret. It's also so simple that a young magician just starting out will have no problem getting it down in a moment's time. I give it 5 stars and if my own children ever have a talent contest at their elementry schools and need me to help them, I will probably teach them this routine.

Great effect!! Even though it uses gimmicks, it is easy and very fun to do. Buy it now!

This trick is good but the only disappointment I had was the clean up of the gimmick. If your spectator is aggressively skeptical, you have to manage the situation.

This version of the twisting the aces is a good buy for this price. The gimmick is very well made, but there are better versions out there.

Okay, so this effect is good but not great. It's quite gimmicky. I feel that it's too much gimmick for such a small effect. Shinsplint by Shin Lim is far better because it uses no gimmicks (impromptu) and in my opinion, like all the others are saying, cleaner.

Such an awesome gimmick! Very well constructed and a very smooth performance as well. Will barely take any practice to master!

Okay, this download was well worth the price and it was a fun effect. As always, theory11 has great cinematography and the clearness in the download was just wonderful.

This is just Shinsplit that feels dirty. An excellent effect nonetheless, but I'm disappointed in the execution when I already know how to do the Shinsplit, which is more impromptu as opposed to Twist. Bich is a great performer, but the execution doesn't feel clean in my opinion.

So this is kinda like Shinsplit, but with gimmicks instead. And it's kind of easy, so I guess that's the upside. Don't like how the last phase you have to put the ace in your pocket, instead of just doing the twist. Teaching is good though. Overall 3/5.
