Unleash Unforgettable Key Bending Magic with Jay Sankey's Twister

Prepare to defy reality and astound your audience with 'Twister', Jay Sankey's groundbreaking key bending effect. Unlike conventional key bends that often rely on subtle covers or quick switches, 'Twister' allows the just-examined key to remain in full view not only before and after the bend, but critically, even during the bend! Imagine the impact: spectators literally watch the metal warp and twist without any apparent manipulation. Once the impossible has occurred, the key can be immediately handed out for examination, leaving no doubt about the authenticity of the miracle they've just witnessed. This level of visual honesty sets 'Twister' apart, creating an unparalleled moment of pure magic.

Engage Your Audience Like Never Before

Beyond its breathtaking visual impact, 'Twister' offers incredible opportunities for audience interaction that elevate the experience from a mere trick to a true spectacle. You can have a spectator initial their own key, only for it to visibly bend in your hands – a souvenir of an impossible moment. For an even more astonishing effect, imagine a spectator taking hold of the head of the key and feeling it twist a full 90 degrees right in their grasp! This direct, participatory magic is incredibly powerful, forging a deep connection with your audience. As Jay Sankey himself affirms, 'Over the years I've performed several different bent key routines and handlings under real world conditions, but I keep coming back to Twister. It's super practical, great on angles, extremely easy and crazy visual!'

Master Multiple Mind-Bending Handlings

'Twister' comes complete with a specially machined gimmick, meticulously crafted to enable these incredible feats, and an exciting full-length instructional video. This comprehensive 50-minute tutorial, personally guided by Jay Sankey, delves into a variety of potent handlings designed for different performance situations. You'll master techniques such as 'The Two-Handed Twist', 'The Nail Twist', 'Mike Skutt's Presentation', 'The One Hand Switch', and the utterly baffling 'Spectator Twist'. What's more, the lessons don't stop at bending; you'll even learn several ingenious ways to untwist the key, adding an extra layer of mystification to your routine. Because 'Twister' utilizes a key design consistent with our best-selling 'Killer Key' effect, the two can be combined for an expanded, truly unforgettable metal-bending act. Elevate your magic and leave a lasting impression with 'Twister'.
