Overview

The 4 Index deck of card come in Bicycle 808 stock in both red and blue. It is basically a deck of Bikes, but with index pips in all 4 corners as opposed to just 2. Definitely cool looking, but not something that I would use everyday. It looks very busy when you fan the deck.

You also get 2 jokers, a 52 on 1 card with a 10H on the back and a Queen of Hearts Gaff with no corner pips whatsoever to do a trick with a double lift.

You also get a link to a streaming 30 minute instructional video that can be watched in English or French. You are taught a few tricks which are not mind blowing, but can be used quickly. One example requires a deck switch to find a chosen card in which the spectator chooses a regular card and unbeknownst to them inserts it into the 4 index deck. I do like the trick with the 52 on 1 on one side and an individual card of the other side. The trick with the QH is also pretty decent in which the pips apparently come off one card and go to another.

The list price of $7.95 is reasonable for this unique deck of cards.

Effect

At its core, it is a unique deck with 4 corner index pips. You can do a few tricks with some gaffs and it is definitely different.

Method

Performing the tricks require some forcing, some basic sleight of hand. Nothing too complex at all.

Product Quality

The quality of the deck is what you expect from any deck of Bikes. I have no complaints whatsoever.

Ad Copy Integrity

No issues to report. The ad copy follows:
