On Edge by Angelo Carbone

[Chris Wahlers]

Hi all,

I spotted this on eBay a day or two ago.

I’m a fan of Angelo’s work, but don’t know anything about this. Anyone know any more?

That looks interesting!!

Angelo kindly sent me the link to his site:

There’s a great video of it in action!
Probably a little too expensive for me at the mo - all my lockdown savings have gone on Tenyo...

On Edge by Angelo Carbone is released today

A hand made version was sold underground years earlier

Looks amazing! Depending on how difficult it is to do and how well the gimmicks are 'hidden' I will order this The cards can't be examined but that is absolutely no issue for me.

A demonstration with the current version, only available in blue

Looks pretty good but can't understand the hype of so many people

I agree it looks good, but I fear it will be perhaps too expensive for what it is. And also, some of the performances I have seen clearly gives away parts of the secret, so care must be taken to try to avoid that.

That said, I still don't understand what keeps the balance of the final castle. I have some guesses, but since it apparently can be performed fully close up, I'm still confused as to how to gimmick it to be invisible.

The official trailer / I think price will be out today

Holy cow, that is expensive!

Holy cow, that is expensive!

Well, it depends on the gimmicks, no? For now I have 'a clue' on how it works but I need more reviews

It DOES look amazing in the demo's, ... but as being into collecting magic for nearly 25 years now you can't rely on demo's unfortunately ... .

I'm really on the fence about this one!

[Olaf S]

Holy cow, that is expensive!

Not only that, but also a lesson in reality

Same here. I didn't really know what to expect, but IT is a no-go for me.

David, I was never in - I just trusted my gut

Even without IT, on edge didn't excite me

If anyone has the Art of Astonishment books by Paul Harris, there is a trick in there called Tensegrity that has impossible gravity-defying card formations.

Although this release goes to another level from what was published in that book, not surprised to see IT.

[Rob Rand]

Surprised that it sold out so quick at the Dutch magic shops… 100 euro is pretty expensive!

No it’s also not for me…

Dynamite Magic has become quite expensive in recent times

In other Magic Shops the price more like 85 USD or 85 Euro
