Omni Air by Victor Sanz

This performance video features Victor Sanz's Omni Air, a visually stunning magic trick where a pen impossibly penetrates a solid glass block in full view, defying traditional methods that rely on cover or misdirection. The trick utilizes a deck of cards in a cellophane-wrapped box, modified with small holes for the pen to slide through, until the glass block seemingly blocks it. The glass block and deck are examinable, ensuring the trick's cleanliness and allowing the deck to be used for other routines. Sanz emphasizes the effect's in-the-hands nature, free from suspicious moves or hidden angles. The video also offers performance tips, highlighting the contrast between the initial easy penetration and the sudden impossibility when the glass is introduced, creating a powerful magical moment. A bonus routine for revealing a spectator's selected card in an unexpected way is included, along with suggestions to let the audience inspect the holes to reinforce the trick's impossibility. Designed to elevate the classic penetration plot, Omni Air is praised for its visual clarity and baffling finish, making it a great choice for close-up or parlor magic enthusiasts who value clean, examinable effects.
