Thanks for clearing that up, meaufeaux. Do you know where I can get a copy of Lynx?


I googled "lynx trick harkey" and found several sources, Nabil.

Thanks for the tip Doug. Just ordered it from "The World's Largest Magic Shop". Can't wait to see what he came up with! If this turns out to be exactly the same thing, or close enough, then this will please a lot of guys who can't find the materials or don't want to spend the time and energy making up their own gimmick. I'll follow up on this as soon as I get it in and have a look at what Mr. Harkey has created.

There are some good ideas in the Lynx instruction sheet.

I can't wait. Well, if anyone has any reviews/feedback, I'd like to hear it! I'll try and stay out of the discussion, unless warranted.

The linking may not be impromptu, but how much of this material fits in a table-hopping situation, Nabil?

All the CMH stuff, the broken and restored band, and the jumping band are 100% commercial no doubt. Depending on your side angles with other tables, and the restaurant lighting, you might be able to use the gimmick. Like a small, elegent, dimly lit restaurant. Bars and clubs are generally good for it as well.

Thanks Marvin! Glad you like it. No better place to practice magic then at work! LOL. Bravo to HP for getting it out so fast! And apologies to my preorders...I honestly thought they would have dvds in hand before the shops even got them. Its my first time with all this. Well, all the preorders were shipped today by my shipper in Wisconsin. And there is stock on hand, so now we are out of "preorder" mode.

Good to hear preorders are all shipped. I am located in California so might be a few days before I get mine. I though I remembered Nabil saying that they were going to ship express. Would that be UPS by any chance? Just anxious to get mine.

The teaching on this DVD is incredible. There is so much good information before you even get to the part where the bands just link.

Nabil is a charismatic entertainer and first rate teacher. Anyone that does rubber band work, this is a must have DVD!!!!

Great DVD. Nabil I know that you are now interested in Harkey`s effect but as others have already said here it happens all the time in magic. I used myself Linking coat hanger gimmick since 1995. for something very similar. Everyone who is not a copycat and spends enough time with the same gimmick will come up with the same ideas or very similar ideas. I would recommend this DVD to anyone interested in rubber band magic no matter whether he performs CMH already or not.

Whose idea was it to shoot the Ammar Finale move as a POV shot; yours or Dave's? Either way, genius! Its my favorite part of the whole dvd.

Thanks guys. Hmm, can't remember. I think that idea actually came from Todd Diamond. He shot the rough draft about a year ago, which featured his fingers. The fingers you see are actually your own, magically passed through the screen! Hehe.
