This is Spin.
Matt Sconce, creator of Power Word: Fall, has released another devastating PK effect. Spin stands on the shoulders of effects that have come before it and takes those concepts to a whole new level. Spin large objects or small objects seemingly with the power of your mind with impromptu ease, with no gimmicks, blowing, threads, or magnets. Instantly repeatable, and absolutely dependable. This effect takes a new "SPIN" on what magicians of the past have done and takes it to a level that increases its practicality, power, and impact. With the "Force" start, and focus on techniques to make the method transparent to the audience, Matt Sconce spends over an hour teaching you how to use this effect in your arsenal of heavy hitters, how to move large objects, and two bonus applications from the creative minds of Shane Black and Shaun Dunn using the same Spin method in a different way. Spin is a new tool in the arsenal of Psychokinetic effects. It is time to step up and Spin the world.
"The work that Matt has put into this is INSANE. I was familiar with the concept prior to the download, but I never knew that it could be this diverse."
- Matthew Mello
"Spin is a brilliant addition to any PK demonstration, it is totally impromptu, effective and well taught.. If James Hydrick had this knowledge he may have just fooled Randi..."
- Marc Spelmann
"The effect is only limited by your imagination, and as such is a powerful piece. And this DVD is a relatively deep exploration of the effect, and the concept on which it is based."
- Sean Fields
"This is very good! Really fooled me and the method made me smile. Extremely practical. How could you NOT use this."
- Cameron Francis
"This is a KILLER effect - I LOVE it. Completely impromptu and something you actually WILL do."
- Dee Christopher

When I purchased Power Word; Fall, I liked the method, but I didn't see it as something I would use very often, mainly because it isn't entirely impromptu, and not well suited for walk-around situations. Spin is a completely different story. This is something that can and will be used by the working magician.
This is strong, impromptu PK at its finest. NO GIMMICKS, nothing at all to add or take away. You can walk into practically any situation and find multiple items with which to perform spin with virtually no preparation or setup. You simply balance an object on another object, and cause it to spin with no physical contact. I know in the trailer it kind of looks like he's touching the objects to spin them, but I assure you he isn't. This is as close to a demonstration of genuine PK as you are going to get without gimmicks. You will actually feel like a Jedi when you are performing it.
As for the video itself, nothing unnecessary has been added. The explanations are clear and to the point. Many variations are taught, using a multitude of objects, and several methods of actually obtaining the desired result. Another thing I liked was that the explanations included points on misdirection and presentation. It's not like some of these one-trick DVD's where they simply reveal the method and leave it up to you to figure out how to use it.
Overall, I highly recommend this DVD to anyone who is serious about performing strong mentalism, and also to all the magicians out there who don't need any more gimmicks to carry around.
