Humbug - Angelo Carbone
I just recieved this effect for my birthday. Had a look at the trailer for it. It actually seems like a pretty neat little "in the hands" vanishing deck. Here's a video of the trick, let me know what you think!

It's a nice vanishing deck but I see it as impractical. You have to ditch the full deck. I don't like the way the deck was ditched in the video. I know he explains several ways to ditch the deck, but never really gives you his preference.

The ditching of the deck in the video is a bit impractical, but is tarted playing around with the idea and it actually works very well. Not to mention the gimmick looks like it can't work, but it works very well.

The gimmick is okay as long as you hold it right. Takes a little practice in front of a mirror.
I've been working on a variation of Paul Harris's 'Solid Deception' lately.
