Presale price: Nick Diffatte – Nick Diffatte Sub Genius Center Tear

Description

“Elegant, practical, and ingenious. The cleanest, most bulletproof solution to the ‘Center Tear’ problem.“ – Teller

“It’s rare to find something truly new in the world of billets that’s worth your time and attention – but this is one of those rare exceptions. Nick has developed a method of tearing and manipulating the billet that is completely natural, utterly deceptive, and allows for an invisible peek unlike anything I’ve seen. Even when he explained the workings, I wasn’t prepared for how seamlessly the information sprung into view. Only a mind like Nick’s could have created something this devious.“ – Colin McLeod

“This is the first real Center Tear innovation in decades, with an innovative feature no other Center Tear has.” – John Lovick

Nick Diffatte’s Sub-Genius Center Tear is the first step forward in methodology for the real-time center tear in years. Nick has created a center tear with a normal index card that reveals a huge peek area to the performer while the pieces look small. Best of all, the unfolding action and peek both happen under a natural, in-transit action.

Highlights of this billet peek:

• Can be done with dry hands
• A new geometry of billet tearing is used, which makes all the pieces look small (and your hands look empty) right before and after the peek
• The performer sees the center of the billet – no writing in a corner or on the edge
• At the moment of the peek, the spectator believes that they can see all the pieces of the billet
• Uses an ungimmicked index card
• Allows for a delayed peek. No need to read as the billet is being torn.
