Omni Air by Victor Sanz

This video is a review of Omni Air by Victor Sanz, presented and taught by Nick Locapo. It showcases a truly remarkable solid-through-solid effect, designed to create a moment of astonishment for your audience. The core of the illusion involves a deck of cards initially presented with a clear hole cut in the cellophane wrapper. A marker is then visibly passed through this hole, seemingly demonstrating the impossibility of the situation. However, when a spectator attempts to replicate the action, they find the hole inexplicably blocked. The climax arrives when the card box is fully revealed, showcasing a solid block of glass seemingly materialized within the deck's cellophane. The deck itself is then pulled out, proving the glass wasn't hidden beforehand, allowing for a seamless transition into a standard card routine. The effect is designed to be a powerful opener for a card magic performance, as the deck used is a standard, examinable deck of cards. Sanz provides four different handlings within the tutorial, allowing performers to select the presentation style that best suits their personality and audience. A bonus effect is also included, where a selected card appears on the glass when fogged with breath. The video features overwhelmingly positive reactions from prominent magicians, with many expressing their astonishment and praise for the deceptive nature and visual impact of Omni Air.
