Magic Review - Magic Review: Hole 2.0 by Mickael Chatelain
David from Magic Orthodoxy delivers a thorough review of Hole 2.0, a card through card effect created by Mickael Chatelain. Receiving a review copy from murphysmagic.com, David assesses the trick based on key criteria for magicians. Hole 2.0 presents a baffling illusion where a card vanishes from a sandwich, and David was genuinely surprised by the gimmick's ingenuity, describing the cards as 'crazy, wicked creative.' The package includes a DVD (in French and English) and four gimmicked cards printed on Bicycle stock, ready to use immediately. The trick boasts near-perfect angles, though one is less favorable, and while most cards can be inspected, one must remain concealed. David praises the clean appearance, convincing nature, and lack of traceable methods, but notes the inability to inspect all cards and Mickael Chatelain's accent as potential drawbacks. Ultimately, David strongly recommends Hole 2.0 as a 'powerhouse trick' worth the $30 price tag, especially for card magicians seeking a visual and stunning effect for walk-around, street magic, or table-hopping performances.
