Xpert by Neil Tobin

Bend coins. Predict the future. Transport objects.

For a decade, Xpert has remained one of the best-kept secrets in mentalism. Now, for the first time, you can explore this utility device that is already a favorite among mentalists and magicians who value its subtle strength and endless potential. Building on the principles from Kenton Knepper’s manuscript, X, the Xpert elevates mentalism to new heights, enabling a range of astonishing effects that require little to no sleight of hand. You’ll be amazed by its simplicity and incredible capabilities, making it an essential tool for any mentalist.
