Ballooned | Nefesch

[Jv]

Another super visual penetration from the twisted brain of Nefesch.

Effect:​

This time the spectator selects one of some balloons, he signs the balloon and you visually push your cell phone through his signed balloon.​

So in this 25 minute video, Nefesch takes you step-by-step how to perform this effect, although I believe it could have been taught better, as I thought that the teaching was not as clear and direct as his other videos.

Quality was great, but I do wish that the camera angles were better.

This effect takes less than 5 minutes to setup and is very easy.

This effect is very impractical and I was disappointed in this effect. This is something that I would not perform and has more cons than pros. For one, the "extra item" needed for this effect is just ridiculous. It must be performed at a table and I find it very impractical. I also find the blowing up the balloon just very knacky as well. Also, angles are a bad problem here, you cannot have anyone behind, to the left or right of you.

The only pro I find in here is the visual aspect of the phone "penetrating" the balloon.

As I stated before I do not find this product worth purchasing.

Yes, Pressure is much better. Impromptu, easy, no extra items.

I agree.

I would recommend getting Pressure by Daniel Garica or Airtight by Jay Sankey.

I heard that Airtight is somewhat difficult, I don't own it, so I don't know.

It is somewhat difficult, but the payoff is worth it...believe me.

I would usually use Airtighter, I believe it's called, by Jay Sankey as well.

It's the "same" effect as Airtighter, but the phase of the cards penetrating the balloon has been taken away.

Probably get called out on this buuuut...
I actually found a short PDF teaching Sankey's airtight (surprisingly easy to find, all I did was search 'airtight jay sankey')... it was the offical airtight notes so I don't think they exist anymore on the interweb, however. They weren't allowed

After experimenting with the effect and setup I found a great trick that makes setup much easier. I can do it consistently in less than a minute.

BTW airtight is lots of fun to perform, not just for the spectators but for me personally. And if you pick it up (like I plan too) I'd be glad to share my quick setup for it, just PM me.
