Balance (Online Instructions) by Joshua Jay
No props included, instructions video download only.
Initially introduced with “Inferno,” which won Trick of the Year in 2012, and followed by “Out of Sight,” which amazed Penn & Teller, Joshua Jay now presents a remarkable creation after eight years of development. This unique wonder has been a highlight of his parlor shows, and you can save $50 if you purchase before January 1st, 2019.
Balance showcases the rare magic of suspension. A collection of everyday objects—a bottle, a card box, a pencil, a toothbrush, and a crayon box—are examined closely. There are no sticky substances or strings involved; everything is completely normal. As the objects are stacked, they first appear to be arranged in impressive ways, but then they defy logic, culminating in a breathtaking sculpture that seems to float in mid-air, leaving your audience in awe.
This effect is an exceptional finale for any parlor show, standing out as something truly extraordinary. Unlike typical magic, Balance maintains an air of impossibility, captivating your audience long after the performance has ended.
A New Kind of Magic: One unexpected aspect of Balance is its modern appeal; audiences feel compelled to capture the moment with photos. Joshua encourages this by allowing them to film and take pictures, ensuring they leave with a tangible memory of the experience.
A Stunning Package of Props: The complete Balance experience comes in an elegant foil-encrusted box. Your props are stored in a velvet case, enabling you to discreetly switch examined items for specially designed props on stage without the need for hidden pockets. The protective “wings” of the hinged box allow for performances in close proximity to your audience. You will receive ten meticulously crafted props, all designed under Joshua’s expert guidance, along with a detailed instructional video from one of magic’s finest educators.
Perform it Immediately: While Joshua’s creations often require years of practice, Balance can be performed just minutes after unboxing. The only skill needed is the art of appearing to struggle with the trick.
Exclusivity: Due to its intricate manufacturing and years of development, Balance is priced at $200. Once you see the quality of the package, you’ll understand the value. This investment will ensure you stand out as one of the few performers of Balance in your area.
Quality You Can’t Fake: Joshua Jay rarely releases new magic, making each creation highly sought after. His effects, from “Triad Coins” to “Inferno” to “Out of Sight,” are quickly sold out upon release. His meticulous attention to detail—from theatrical presentation to product design—ensures that Balance represents years of dedicated craftsmanship.
