A card trick done backwards. Joshua Jay breaks the mold on card magic with the highly-anticipated release of one of his most cherished routines: “Reverse Logic.”
Developed in 2010, and used in nearly every show since, “Reverse Logic” features an engaging premise that immediately hooks an audience before knocking them off their feet with multiple magical moments that happen in rapid succession.
“Reverse Logic” is one of Josh’s most trusted companions. Every element has been fully fleshed out and refined over years of performances. For the first time ever, you can now get a complete set containing the props needed to start performing right away. As there’s no difficult sleight of hand required, you’ll be able to jump right in!
A Jaw-Dropping Interactive Adventure
After discussing your fascination with time travel, you exclaim that you’ll be doing a card trick in reverse. It begins with the final round of applause and works backwards from there.
Your watch is removed, covered with a handkerchief and secured in a glass that remains in clear view of the audience. A deck is then shown in new deck order before you remove a card and keep it facedown. This is their card, they just don’t know it yet because they haven’t selected one. To complete the backwards card trick, they now do the one thing that is usually the first thing in any other card trick: they pick a card. Finally, your participant shuffles the cards.
Now, for the fun part. It’s time to start traveling back in time.
The participant looks through the deck and notices their selected card–the one they just saw–has vanished. Well, actually, it’s just gone back in time. The isolated face-down card on the other side of the stage is turned over to reveal it is indeed their chosen card. How about your watch from earlier? Well, it has also vanished from the glass and reappeared back on your wrist.
As a final kicker, the deck they just mixed is instantly and visually put back in new deck order. You’re left in the perfect position to once again accept your huge round of applause; which, this time, is very well deserved.
Easy-to-Do & Comes With Custom Props
“Reverse Logic” was born from Josh’s desire to create the best and most unique card trick he could think of. He started with the premise and, as luck would have it, ended up creating a method that is also incredibly easy.
Careful consideration went into creating custom cards (made from amazing crushed Bicycle Mandolin stock)and the perfect props that handle most of the hard work for you. With no difficult sleight of hand to worry about, you can immerse yourself in the moment and focus on creating an exceptional experience for every audience.
While this amazing effect is clearly perfect for any formal close-up show, it also solves one of the biggest challenges many magicians face as they try to translate their close-up material to parlor or stage situations. Offering a crystal-clear premise that is visual and happens up in your hands, “Reverse Logic” is a rare card trick that can play huge for audiences of any size.
