Magic Review - C Pad System by TCC & K.Pen

David from Magic Orthodoxy delivers an honest review of the 'C Pad System' by TCC Magic and K. Pen, a device that allows for a seemingly impossible mind-reading effect. The system, presented in a novel way, utilizes a classic magical principle where a spectator writes down random digits, and the magician can reveal them. David received a review copy and emphasizes the importance of practice, as the system isn't self-working and requires skill to master. He notes that it primarily works with numbers, though a 'second peek' method allows for letters or pictures. While the clipboard's quality is decent, the effect's strength lies in its apparent impossibility, making spectators less likely to suspect trickery. David highlights the system's flexibility, allowing for performance across a table or with the spectator holding the clipboard. Ultimately, he considers it a creative revisit to a classic principle, offering a convincing illusion of mind reading, and recommends TCC Magic's affordable basic magic tools like rope and rubber bands. He also promotes his own 'Magic Reveal T-Shirt' with accompanying tutorial.
