Gallerian Bend
Erick Castle
(Based on 1 review)
Powerful, Visual, and Close-up!
The Gallerian Bend takes the concept of bending a spoon using just the power of your mind to a whole new level! It is a completely impromptu spoon bend that you will immediately add to your close-up repertoire! Easy to perform without any set up and using just a regular spoon.
Erick has been literally refining Gallerian over the past 3 years now, and not only trying to make-it visually beautiful, but also making it something very practical to perform in all type of settings.
Can this be performed surrounded?
Yes! The beautiful thing about gallerian, it's actually viewable completely (Surrounded). This effect could be performed as walkaround, close-up or on stage.
Does this use a gimmicked spoon?
No! The spoon is not prepared and could be borrowed if you don't mind giving the spoon back to the owner in a bent condition.
Can this be performed with a fork rather than a spoon?
Yes.We actually think it looks even better! Due to narrower 'tyne section' surface.
Running Time Approximately 19 min

Erick Castle's GALLERIAN BEND might be one of the worst-looking DVDs I've ever seen. The entire performance and explanation looks as if it was filmed in the dark recesses of Hannibal Lecter's lair. With no disrespect to Mr. Castle, he comes off a bit creepy in a Unabomber kind of way. The sound is fuzzy and the lighting is bad.
On a happier note, the one silverware bend taught on this DVD is quite good. I've never seen a bending method like this one and it looks very slick from a straight-on perspective. Mr. Castle does a really fine job of explaining the method, and one should have no problem learning it, despite the awful technical issues.
At $30.00, I feel this is overpriced. Just understand, you are being taught one method of bending silverware, not an entire routine. If you're looking for another move to add to your arsenal, this is worth your consideration. If not, you would be better off with any of Richard Osterlind's fine books or DVDs that explore the same theme.
