Hello friends!
This week I have created a video sharing my favourite mentalism routine using a switch wallet and guess what…It’s extremely easy to do!
I can’t get away with serious mind reading effects. I don’t like to claim any special powers and I find claiming to read body language and psychology is also a bit dishonest so I prefer my mind reading to have a “Mental Magic” feel. This routine fits the bill perfectly.
When at the Blackpool Magic Convention I came across Alex Kirk, AKA “Big Monster” (only to me) and his delightful little switch wallet called the “Flip Flap Wallet”.
Foy years I have been using the quiver wallet for this routine but I will be switching (pardon the pun) to Alex’s Flip Flap Switch Wallet.
It’s nice and compact at 7x7cm which is perfect for a single dollar size coin or a folded note.
It should be available to purchase in the next week or two!
Watch my YouTube video to see my favourite switch wallet routine.
Thank Iain for this routine by buying him a coffee:
Thank you in advance!
Great routine hey? I wonder how long your switch wallet has been sat in your drawer. I can relate. This routine however has reignited my love for these subtle little wallets.
Bonus Tip:
Do you ever remember Jay Sankey’s Gemini Pouch??? This was a double sided switch purse with a clear window. For some routines you could swap items without the audience realising anything has happened (eg. Separate paperclips in one side, linked paper clips in the other) or you could do VERY BOLD switches like a £5 note switching places with a £20 note but it required heavy misdirection!! Either way, try and dig out your instructional booklet for that as Jay shared some killer routines which can be applied to your own switch wallet.

I love his site so much I bought myself a mug…
