Visualise by Liam Montier

Liam Montier has taken a classic principle and mashed it up with some killer handling to create a monster of a routine. It’s so hands off and clean that it really does look like real magic._x000D_

Visualise is the classic ‘Triumph’ – but turbocharged to the nines.  A deck is genuinely shuffled face-up into face-down, and a spectator THINKS of a card in the deck.  You reveal their selection with NO questions… and then the deck straightens itself out, apart from the freely named card!  No forces, no sleight of hand, no kidding – this is the cleanest triumph you’ve ever seen!_x000D_

Here’s what Liam has to say about ‘Visualise’:_x000D_
_x000D_
“A couple of years ago, I myself the task of trying to create the perfect version of Triumph.  It’s a plot that has so many variations and approaches, and yet none stuck in my set._x000D_
_x000D_
So I followed the late and great Tommy Wonder approach, and set about imagining how the perfect trick would look.  I came up with this – a deck is HONESTLY mixed face up and face down – no cutting displays or nonsense.  A card is thought of.  The card, with no questions or fishing, is named by the magician.  Then the deck is all face down except one card… the freely named card._x000D_

It took a long time – chopping and changing pieces, removing difficult moves or funny looking displays, experimenting with forces, unorthodox techniques and even deck switches._x000D_
_x000D_
Eventually though, as always, simplicity rules, and I ended up cutting out all the fluff, combining two classic ideas in a new way to give a sleight free, moveless, mentalism wonder. This is the result.”
