Description & Effect
Unleash Unforgettable Card Magic
Jay Sankey's 'Reconstruction' is more than just a card trick; it's a reputation-maker designed to leave your audience absolutely speechless. Imagine taking a playing card, tearing it into pieces, and then, with a simple, visual action, magically restoring it right before their eyes. The kicker? The card ends up perfectly whole, but with its corner indexes visibly transposed! This isn't just a restoration; it's a complete 'reconstruction' that defies logic, making spectators gasp and question everything they thought they knew about card magic. As Richard Sanders puts it, 'Reconstruction blew me away. The ending is a moment of REAL MAGIC. This is Sankey at his absolute best.'
Effortless Impact, Astounding Reactions
What truly sets 'Reconstruction' apart is its ingenious blend of simplicity and raw impact. Magicians often strive for complex sleights, but Sankey has harnessed the power of minimalist design to create an effect that feels utterly impossible. David Acer notes that it 'elevates one of the simplest effects in card magic to showpiece status.' You'll be so far ahead in the trick that you can completely focus on your presentation, milking every moment for maximum astonishment. Testimonials like Mike Johnson's, who describes showing it daily and how it 'blows them AWAY,' or Chris Lovell's account of someone falling out of their chair, perfectly illustrate the profound reactions you'll achieve. This isn't just a trick; it's an experience.

"I've never sat in the front row at a lecture before and I'm VERY HAPPY I did because I got a chance to experience Jay's performance of 'Reconstruction' just like a real spectator and it was a thing of beauty.
