Tenyo Magic Forum

I just ordered the book on Amazon.com. Wouldn't it be great if Magic Wagon made a Sidetrack type zig zag card?

They already did that Rick...

Rob, I know that MW made a Zig Zag card but as far as I know the method was much different than Tenyo's Sidetrack. I could be wrong though! I thought that the MW version operated more like Tenyo's Illusionarium.

I believe you are correct Rob.

Oh no David is all mixed up again. I think you meant "I believe you are right Rick."

F*S! It's 33 °C where I live and my brain is cooking a bit

Yes you're absolutely right Rick, the method is totally different from Sidetrack. I don't think MW will remake a Sidetrack, it remains a fragile trick. I know that because I made one myself.

And David, just take a cold bath

Always wanted to get Side Track until I got to actually examine one, they are definitely fragile as far as magic tricks go. This is the kind of trick that you would be afraid to use too much for fear of wearing it out. I would only buy one if I found it for a reasonable price, and that is probably not going to happen because the very reason that they are rare is that they break so easily. No thanks, I am not that kind of magic collector. I have went through the entire Tenyo catalog of tricks and made a list of the ones that I think are worth collecting based on the cleverness of the effect and the apparent build quality. The current number stands at 175, and I just bought my 150th trick the other day. So I still need 25 more tricks to complete my Tenyo wish list. Side Track didn't make the cut, unless like I said, if I can get one for around 50 dollars or so.
