SleightfulRoo's Reviews 'Threaded' by Avi Yap *including performance!
Roo reviews 'Threaded' by Avi Yap, a modern adaptation of the classic Charming Chinese Challenge (CCC), featuring a visual kickback finale where all three coins reappear on the ribbon before vanishing again. Despite his initial skepticism towards CCC routines, Roo finds 'Threaded' compelling due to its portability, visual impact, and the quality of the props, including machine-made Chinese charms and a special gimmick. The routine involves advanced coin sleights and is recommended for intermediate to advanced coin workers. While 'Threaded' hasn't fully converted Roo into a CCC enthusiast, it's the first version that's made him want to perform the effect, praising its beautifully crafted magic and inspiring qualities.
