Sanada Gimmick resources

Postby katterfelt0 » March 13th, 2024, 12:50 pm

Hello All,

I'm looking for information on Sanada Gimmick handling. I've had one for quite some time but I can never get it to look right. Can anyone recommend any resources?

Have you searched YouTube for videos? I believe there are quite a few, including a demo by Sanada himself.

A YouTube search yields a bunch of demos but I couldn't find a tutorial.

The Archive has a category on this type of gimmick, but there are not that many references yet: https://www.conjuringarchive.com/list/category/2340

Thank you, Joe. It was only $10. And I know he's a good teacher.

Colin McCloud has some very clever uses of it for mentalism. Check it out on the Alakazam Unlimited subscription--$7 a month or so.

Thanks Jim!
Let me give you a little piece of advise when it comes to research... use Google Translator to look for what you want in different languages. You would expand the search resources. You may not find it in English but always would help.
