Passage is the perfect combination of an amazing visual, a practical method and a clever gimmick.
This unbelievable magic illusion gives the impression that you can cause a pen (or other similar shaped object) to pass directly through a playing card.
When you watch the trailer, you'll probably have the same thought we did: "There is no way it looks that good in real life".
But you'd be wrong.
Passage looks just as good in a close-up magic or street magic performance as it does on a Zoom magic show or social media video.
This special gimmick is crafted out of a Bicycle playing card and is now available in either RED or BLUE. It is incredibly easy to learn and you'll be performing it just minutes after watching the instructions.
Perfect for social media and zoom shows would recommend it to anyone who wants a crazy visual in their zoom performance. I don’t understand why there’s a one star on this product when it is obviously made for social media and works perfectly fine.
This is a tough one to write a fair review about. The description is correct, this is ONLY for social media and Zoom. This will not work at all in real life. It also is terribly obvious what the method is. So obvious that I thought for 22 pounds there must be more to it and bought it anyway. But really, I could have built this myself in fair enough quality to work after watching the product video (NOT the instruction video).The product you get is decently built and with the materials used durable for hundreds of performances - but compared to the huge amount of work put into other gimmicks, Passage is overpriced. And because this is such a one-trick-pony, you do not need the durabilty at all. I've done it twice and might have a third use for it. So all in all it will have had less than a minute of accumulated "stage time". Another plus: you will need no training time at all. You can use it straight away. Just do a camera check once.So all in all I guess the "deceive" here is that you think you get something clever. You "only" get something useful in a very limited way. It does well what it does, but that's not enough for me.
It seems like Sebastien Calbry is very good at insulting its customers' intelligence! You can't even perform this for a 5 yo child without making a fool of yourself.

Peter asks: Does this come ready to go when you receive it?
Leland asks: Could I easily adapt the gimmick, or build my own, for other card designs? What about other similarly shaped items, like business cards, etc? Just wondering how customizable it is. Thank you!
David asks: You say it’s perfect for Social Media. Is that to say it’s now good for live closeup? If it is performed live are there any “problems” with angles or sounds?
Philip asks: Is this trick able to be performed surrounded or is it more suited to online performances?
Brian asks: Social media trick, could you clarify what this means.
Brad asks: Why is this trick better performed online rather than in person? (without giving too much away)
Paul asks: Is this Gimmick easily breakable? I don't want to put the creator down, but I've bought a few of his effects that have snapped, or broke very easily. Most of them during the initial practice and before I got to try them out on people.
Jonathan asks: One last question (don't get annoyed) about performing this live (which I understand is not recommended), can you hold the card flat (like a table) where everyone sees it from the top? ...or with controlled (one or two) spectators? Perhaps it is worth a shot? I don't do social media but would like to perform this trick.
