SleightfulTriHarder by Simon Lipkin - Mentalism Review
Sebastian Tocamagic delivers a detailed review of 'TriHarder,' a mentalism download by Simon Lipkin. Aiming to help magicians make informed purchases, Sebastian unpacks the download, which includes performances, explanations, PDFs, and images totaling around two hours of content. The core of 'TriHarder' revolves around a deceptive marking system called 'Set the Bar,' utilized across several routines. Sebastian highlights routines like the 'Key Routine,' a compelling 'Book Test' (enhanced with horror-themed books), the 'Alive or Dead' test, the humorous 'Choose Me' test, a deceptive 'Credit Card Cutting Routine,' and a 'Horoscope Reveal.' He praises the ease of performance and practicality of most routines, noting that while the methods might seem obvious, they are remarkably deceptive to audiences. Sebastian particularly loved the 'Set the Bar' marking system and the book test, giving 'TriHarder' a high rating of 9 out of 10 and recommending it to mentalists seeking quirky and accessible material, while cautioning those familiar with Lipkin's 'Unlimited Alakazam' lecture about potential content overlap.
