Here are some of the things other performers have been kind enough to say about my creations:
“I bought (X-Way Pad) a few days ago and have been playing around with it. I like the concept very much and while performers at all levels will find it to be a very useful utility device, experienced mentalists will discover that there is a lot more that can be done with this than meets the eye.
And the price is more than reasonable.”
– Bob Cassidy
“These are some very clever routines from a real, working performer.
The Ambivisual Principle and JJE both use classic methods in a well covered way. I can see these playing strongly for many performers.
And best of all, they are easy to do!”
– Richard Osterlind
“I am sure I will be using this as part of a stage effect at some point.
– Paul Brook Mind Reader
“The X-Way Pad is a great utility pad enabling you to correctly predict outcomes with cards or pretty much any presentation which requires you the performer to make a prediction. If you want a pad that is fool proof and perform effects or routines using pads to create predictions, thought of words or drawing duplications this is it. I have some crazy ideas spinning around my mind that I’m going to put to use with this little gem.”
- Rus Andrews
“Judge, Jury and Executioner is a great demonstration in subconscious knowledge and a dark presentation of an interesting Innocent/Murder plot”
- Pablo Amirá
“(The Ambivisual Principle is) A nice mixture of ideas that allows you to create great experiments in subliminal influence with no effort”
– Pablo Amirá
“If you are interested in a way to predict thoughts (Zodiac signs, Months) having nothing more than an apparent normal pad and any pen, you will enjoy (X-Way Pad.)”
– Pablo Amira
“(The Ambivisual Principle is) Solid GOLD! A very powerful concept that in the rights hands will produce a very strong effect. The ideas contained within the pages will inspire you to come up with routines of your own. Even though you get some sample effects the real strength here is the highly original and strong idea. I highly recommend this for workers, a very good release.”
– Stephen Ward, Paranormal Entertainer
“Just purchased (X-Way Pad) and I really like it. This is going to be used in my stage show, I already have a few routine ideas that will work perfectly with this. Very happy with my purchase! I think this is ideal for Sw**i Op***r effects. I tend to use those a lot and now I have a great way of doing them.”
- Stephen Ward, Paranormal Entertainer
“(The Ambivisual Principle is) An incredible and completely new tool for the mentalist. The possibilities are huge. It turns the usual method upside down. Whereas many methods in mentalism employ some kind of force limiting the choice in subtle ways to predict an outcome, Blackwood is turning this on its head. The spectator has a completely and truly free choice. Nevertheless you can logically and clearly show that his choice was influenced or pre-determined from the get go. I love it! It’s great!”
– Chris Wasshuber
“Together with some p**-s*** work one can achieve great results. The instructions are clear enough with a detailed step-by-step of how to proceed in order to build X-Way. It’s a great bang for the buck and a solid idea, recommended.”
