One Ball by Wicky
In the early days of close-up magic competitions, props like playing cards and coins dominated the scene. Wanting to explore a different path, Wicky turned his attention to sponge balls by chance. He soon realized that most sponge ball routines were repetitive and formulaic, so he began experimenting, refining, and innovating, from sponge ball selection to fundamental and advanced techniques.
The result of his years of dedication is distilled into this tutorial.
In this download, Wicky teaches three powerful sponge ball techniques that encapsulate years of performance experience. Each one allows you to create truly dreamlike visual effects.
- FLASH BALL – Instantly produce a sponge ball as if from thin air.
- FALLING VANISH – Just as the audience thinks they see the ball, it melts away before their eyes.
- SUPER VANISH – A visible sponge ball rests in your palm, then vanishes completely in the next instant.
Simple, direct, and pure visual impact.
Especially the Super Vanish, the culmination of Wicky’s years of research, represents a refined and elegant sponge ball vanish technique.
