Overview
What to say about the Butterfly Pass. How could they make a 2 DVD set with almost 3 hours of instructional video about a pass? Easily! There is so much information and material based on Leathwaite's version of the pass that you will need hours upon hours to learn and digest it all.The pass is just that, it's a pass, but it addresses some issues with the classic pass. It takes practice for sure. Don't think that you will be ready to take this out for a drive immediately after watching the video, but it is well worth the practice.
The pass itself protects against some angles that would be a problem with the classic pass, but you are not angle proof. When executing the pass, at least in the beginning, it feels a bit knacky. It is however very good.
When Leathwaite performs his pass, he almost hits his hands together which is a bit odd, but it is still amazing and flies by lay people. You are taught many variations of the pass on the first DVD and on the second DVD you are taught some really awesome amazing routines, including a totally awesome ACAAN.
This DVD set is a master class in awesome card magic!
Effect
Using an invisible maneuver, you are able to bring a card from the middle of the deck to the top of the deck in a split second. Totally amazing as I have said.Method
The method is a tweak on the pass that you may already know, but it requires practice and dedication. The method is not complicated, it just takes some getting used to and some adjustment.Product Quality
