Wonder Aces by John Guastaferro

Fluid. Smooth. Surprising. "Wonder Aces" is just over a minute long, but it is ten years in the making. John Guastaferro (whose debut hit collection One Degree remains one of the most acclaimed Vanishing Inc. books in our history) is back with a sensational new download. "Wonder Aces" combines two older pieces with several brand new insights: the result is a silky smooth Ace routine.

You begin by producing Aces one by one: the first materializes, the second is found reversed in the pack, the third appears in a sandwich, and the fourth is "painted" across your fingers. But then things take off! The pack changes from blue to red, and to conclude, the Aces themselves change from blue to red.

"Wonder Aces" is within the realm of the intermediate performer, and no special cards are required. John G gives clear, step-by-step instructions on how to perform "Wonder Aces," which features his elegant Ballerina Cut.

This routine is worthy of your attention, and it can be performed set to music or performed with a narrative. A bargain at the offered price, add "Wonder Aces" to your repertoire today.

"Wonder Aces typifies the work of John Guastaferro - elegant, economical, with one extra surprise you didn't see coming. Then another one."David Regal

This routine displays a wonderful economy in its ratio of method to effect. It is a lovely dance done for the eyes.Stephen Minch
