the mechanic shift

The Mechanic Shift is created by Jo Sevau and Richard Hucko, if you are like me who likes hard moves then here it is :P. This shift is not like other shifts because it can accomplish many different things like controlling a card to bottom of the deck, to the top, to palm, mutiple shifts, palm to palm transfer and color change....... did i say that you can do this with only one hand :D.

heres what can i say about the contents:

The Basic Mechanics Shift - this is the basis of all the moves you will encounter here so practice this till your fingers ache hahaha

Covering Actions For the Basic Mechanics Shift - there are two covering actions that they taught using both hands and one using only one hand.

Control To The Bottom From Centre (With Covers)- if you know the basic mechanics then this will be easy for you

Two Handed Centre To Top Control - this is like a pass but not a pass, it can also done with one hand and some misdirection

Mechanics Shift To Palm - This is my favorite application of mechanic shift, imagine doing the diagonal palm shift with one hand.

Table Palm - if you can do the mechanics shift to palm then this is much easier with the cover

Palm Transfer - palm to palm transfer clean in the video but i think its hard to execute in real performance and its a little angle sensitive.

Colour Changes - think of it as a cardini change without a clean up :P

The Split - the one and only trick included in the video, a very visual card split that looks like a camera edit when done smoothly

Multiple Control - i dont like this multiple card control because it needs table or someone to hold the packets

the video production isn't the best like the other instant download out there, its like a homemade video from your neighbor but much better, they explain it thoroughly but i wish they add some videos about the common pitfalls of the moves :P

So for the someone who likes hard sleights that are versatile then this is for you, learn it and have fun fooling your spectators and friend magicians
