Solid Condom by Magic Diamond

In this episode of Alexis' Reviews, Alexis dives into Solid Condom by Magic Diamond, a trick he discovered at Blackpool.

Alexis highlights the trick's high-quality craftsmanship, the convenience of its reset mechanism, and the excellent customer service provided by the creator, Nuno. He mentions the trick's price is around €250, with shipping costs between €20-€25, and notes that the product is handmade, with limited availability. Alexis demonstrates the trick, emphasizing its practicality for close-up magic and the ability to reset it in full view. He also discusses the included accessories, such as a belt clip holder and a travel toothpick, which add to the trick's versatility.

He concludes by comparing Solid Condom to similar tricks on the market, declaring it the best due to its mechanism and overall quality.
