Master the Art of the Circular Fan with Ricky Kinosa

Many card magicians can execute a pressure fan or a one-handed fan, but can you perform a circular fan that completes a full 360 degrees and closes seamlessly? While several techniques exist, Ricky Kinosa introduces the method created by the innovative Japanese magician, Toyozane Sanada. Known for his inventive Sanada gimmick, which greatly enhances sponge ball routines, Sanada’s circular fan technique has been underexplained in print. Although various videos showcase the fan, comprehensive English instructions have been lacking.

In his ebook, The Circle Fan, Ricky Kinosa delivers the first thorough guide, complete with detailed descriptions, photographs, and practical exercises. This resource equips you with the necessary skills to master the circular fan. Ricky goes beyond the basic mechanics, covering essential aspects such as deck preparation, fan display, and the closing technique.

During the FISM event in Yokohama in 1994, I witnessed Sanada perform the circular fan up close, and it was truly a magical experience. I spent several days attempting to learn this move but struggled to make any progress. With Ricky’s ebook, I now have a clear path toward mastering this challenging technique. While it remains a difficult maneuver, the insights provided will bring this impressive move within your reach.
