What Makes Against the Grain Special?

Imagine this: YOU think of a playing card, and your spectators read YOUR mind. Sounds impossible? Write your thoughts down on paper or the back of your business card. Your spectator will be stunned as they turn over the paper to reveal… a number?

Here’s the twist: “Oops, let me explain. This is my first deck of cards, and someone told me to mark them with numbers. Believe it or not, that number IS the Queen of Spades.” Spread the cards, and your spectator will see different numbers on the backs. When they turn over the Queen of Spades, the number matches the one on the paper.

Why You Need Against the Grain

• No Equivoque or Magician’s Force: This trick doesn’t rely on traditional methods, keeping it fresh and surprising.
• No Outs: The magic happens naturally, with no need for hidden moves.
• No Double-Face Predictions: Everything is straightforward and transparent.
• No Special Envelope: Just a simple piece of paper or business card.
• Instant Reset: Ready to perform again in moments.

Perfect for Strolling Magicians

Are you a strolling magician? Against the Grain is ideal for you! We teach you two additional effects perfect for close-up magic. Imagine performing without written numbers—your thought-of card is the only red card in a blue deck or the only card with an X on it. These variations are already a hit in professional circles.

Each routine is versatile. Follow the instructions carefully, as each requires different (or no) writing on the deck.

Everything you need to perform this trick is included. But remember, watch the explanation completely before writing on your deck to ensure the best results.

Experience the magic of Against the Grain and amaze your audience like never before!
