Jerx Christmas - Kyle Purnell - 9:36 PM

While seeing old friends is great at a party, the next best thing is meeting new friends. That’s how I feel meeting Kyle Purnell.

Kyle is someone I don’t really know but I’ve become interested in his magic a lot over the past couple of years. At first I wasn’t sure if his magic was for me, because some of the handling felt a little finicky—at least in my hands. 

But then I realized it was because he was pushing the envelope so much in regards to what could be accomplished, often with ungimmicked items. For example, check out his recent trick, Repromoted, where a spectator’s signed $5 bills transform into a signed $10. 

I’ve been meaning to check out Back in Business too. That looks so good I’m contemplating getting business cards. (I’ll have to start a business first. I think I’ll deal in fine furs.)

Wow Magic is where you can keep up with Kyle’s effects.

And here’s a little gift from Kyle. A beautiful, visual pip removal effect that uses normal cards.
