Approximately 70 years ago, magicians Eddy Taytelbaum and Flip Postma came up with an idea that took the magic world by storm - the Flipper Coin, which is precisely the coin prop that once set an astonishing record of being watched by billions of people online simultaneously.
It was also that performance that drove countless magicians and magic enthusiasts crazy. Even the pirated Flipper Coins saw a soaring sales volume because of it. This prop, which should have been regarded as a professional-level item, was casually labeled as a "magic toy" just like "WOW", and its secret mechanism was even blatantly shown on the main pictures on Taobao. Almost every magician who practices coin magic has their own Flipper Coin. Before, there were classic routines like Dean Dill's Dean's Triangle, which wasn't limited to the Spring Festival Gala, and other excellent performances. And Eric Jones' unique operations, such as the classic Oxy-Clean routine and the routine that successfully fooled Penn & Teller on the "Fool Us" show, all demonstrated the extraordinary charm of these techniques. The choices of these top players are undoubtedly the best proof of the value of this prop.
Around June this year, Bluether Magic joined hands with Luciano Chun, Craftman of Raphael Gaffs, to supervise and launch a brand-new series of coin Gaffs. And now, the Flipper Coin supervised by Luciano Chun is here!
Just like every Shell, Luciano Chun personally oversees the key parts of each Flipper Coin. After days and nights of painstaking efforts with the manufacturers supervised and coordinated by Luciano Chun, what's the Flipper Coin like?
It features exquisite craftsmanship and unique principles. There are numerous versions of Flipper Coins from countless manufacturers, which can be quite dazzling. Since the Flipper Coin involves factors like gravity, magnetism, and elasticity, how can we make ours stand out? In order to pursue the best effect, we made multiple prototypes during the initial production stage of the Flipper Coin. Some friends questioned whether it was necessary for us to go to such lengths, after all, it's just a Flipper Coin.
To solve this problem, we carefully designed a Flipper Coin. It adopts an integrated wiring technology, and the edge of the sub-coin has been finely reworked with serrated edges, which can be transformed into a gravity or magnetism Flipper Coin.
For the craftsmanship and assembly part:
- The cutting method is infinitely close to the handmade version.
- Customized accessories (with hidden surprises): We abandoned the height difference caused by Blu-Tack. Luciano Chun and our team discussed and came up with a more perfect way to solve the adhesion problem. Once you receive it, you will experience the ultimate feeling brought by its thinness! Meanwhile, Luciano Chun specially selected suitable imported rubber bands to match the Flipper Coin. It's so nice. And we'll give them as gifts! We'll also give you extra rubber bands and stickers for backup!
- Manual adjustment: Each Flipper Coin has been manually polished, adjusted, and assembled by our adjustment specialists. You can use it as soon as you receive it.
