Random I-Tunes Song of The Moment: Cold Kentucky Rain By Elvis Presley

Pre-Review 'Disclosure'/'Disclaimer':

Ok many of you probably know that Jay Sankey and I are good friends and that we've worked together on a project or two in the past, and we also are consultants to one another.

I get feedback from him on my stuff, and he gets feedback from me on a lot of his stuff. Additionally, I do not receive any sort of compensation whatsoever for reviewing or 'pitching' his products (I was not involved in this particular project).

I tell you that up front just to sort of clear the air and to let you know that when I give Jay feedback, I'm brutally honest with him. I tell him if I think he has a crappy idea or a good idea. He wouldn't have it any other way, nor would I. So I want to make it clear that Jay's products get the same level of scrutiny as any other products I review.

On to the review:

Are you kidding me!? Only $25.00 bucks? Seriously, how does Jay make any money on deals like this. If you are not familiar with the original Sankey Magic effect Holy Moly, the concept is basically a moving hole. It's awesome. You end up with an examinable washer that has two holes in it and another examinable washer with no hole.

Holy Stretch takes this effect to the next level. Imagine taking the two-holed washer and then visibly stretching it to over twice its length to a now strangely shaped elliptical looking object which is totally examinable. This is the perfect follow up effect for Holy Moly. This is visual magic at its best.

With the DVD, you get the stretched washer along with an extra two-holed washer. The beauty of that is that you don't have to own Holy Moly to perform Holy Stretch. On the DVD, you'll learn several different handlings, some of Jay's pet handlings and some that he only does occasionally and some that he never does, but he puts them on there in case they appeal to your style.

If you do sleight of hand magic, this is a definite GEM for your arsenal, and at the price of $25.00 bucks for two gimmicks and a DVD, you can't go wrong.

Final Verdict:
4.5 Stars with a Stone Status of GEM!
