Roo's Reviews 'Dig It' by Iain Bailey
Roo reviews 'Dig It' by Iain Bailey, a card trick that cleverly uses a miniature spade gimmick for a surprising reveal. Initially skeptical, Roo found the routine more layered and practical than expected, praising its self-contained gimmick system, which includes a custom 3D-printed spade and a prepared stack of cards. The trick involves two spectators selecting cards, with the magician 'mind-reading' one and dramatically failing to locate the other, only to reveal the correct card by peeling off a tiny spade. The tutorial covers basic card handling to advanced tips, and Roo highlights the trick's durability, versatility, and the strong impact of the sand reveal. Highly recommended for its practicality and depth.
