Jon Allen’s “Cookie Holdout” is a simple magnetic holdout that you attach to a back pocket or waistband, allowing you to hold out a single card or multiple cards, banknotes, business cards, magnetic coins, and more. It remains completely hidden during performance and keeps everything positioned where you can access it quickly.
Here’s just one idea of what it can do:
Two participants count and hold separate packets of cards. The packets never visibly come together, yet when the cards are counted again, three have impossibly traveled from one person’s hands to the other’s.
“Cookie Holdout” helps keep the handling open and fair, eliminating the need to awkwardly conceal cards throughout the routine.
But Cards Across is only the beginning.
You can use “Cookie Holdout” to...
- Show your hands empty after removing a signed card from the deck
- Keep a set of Aces hidden and ready to ring in when you're ready
- Retrieve a prediction right when you need it
- Discreetly ditch an extra card or gimmick when you’re done with it.
- And much more!
Because the holdout is magnetic, it can also be used with compatible coins, keys, and other metal or shimmed objects. You easily ditch a coin for a super clean vanish or develop entirely new routines around objects you carry every day.
“Cookie Holdout” is a practical utility device designed to make your sleight of hand easier so that you can focus on the performance.
Once you start experimenting with it, you’ll begin finding uses for it everywhere.
