r

Ask a spectator to hold out their hand and make a closed fist. Pull out a marker and draw an ‘X’ on the center of your palm and close it into a fist. Now without any rubbing erasing or funny business you slowly open your hand and reveal your X is COMPLETELY GONE. Now ask the spectator to open their hand – THE X IS ON THEIR PALM!

r

Ask them to try to rub away the X – they can’t! It’s Sharpie ink! Tell them not to worry though – it’s safe and nontoxic and can be washed away easily with soap and water.

r

The secret behind Double Cross is diabolically clever and perhaps more importantly practical. Its always inked and ready to go. There is nothing you need to make or prepare beforehand – just throw the pen in your pocket and you can perform it all night long.

r

Because there’s no difficult sleights you’ll sail through the routine. You’re so far ahead the spectators will never remember you coming near them or even touching them. The result is a unique magic effect that’s self-contained has NO reset and can be performed surrounded. Its a table hopper’s dream.

Double Cross includes the MagicSmith designed and fabricated Double Cross Sharpie pen accessories and complete instructions.
