INSTANT TELEPORTATION TO THE TOP

Visual ambitious appearances on the deck usually have one of two problems. 

  1.  The card is gimmicked and cannot be inspected or signed.
  2.  The deck is heavily gaffed and cannot be inspected or used for any other tricks.

Tom Elderfield's Air Ambitious solves both.

  1.  The card is fully signed, examinable and ungimmicked.
  2.  The gimmick hides in amongst a normal deck until you're ready to perform.

Using a rarely used principle in magic, the Air Ambitious gimmick literally does all the work for you, within mid air.

For those that have made card gimmicks at home before, this is easier than a flap card... and for those that haven't, Tom's expert tuition goes through the steps necessary to get a perfect gaff, every time. 

As a magician you probably already have everything you need to seamlessly make the gimmick at home.

Here are the key points:

  • The gimmick can easily be added to your deck. 
  • It does all the work for you. 
  • It can be performed 360 degrees 
  • It's sleight-of-hand free
  • It's incredibly visual 
  • The signed card is 100% examinable. 
  • It's incredibly easy... makes you look like Harry Potter.

I mean, what more can you ask for?

Once the gimmick has been added to your deck, it hides in plain sight and is ready to go as soon as you are.

Air Ambitious is the perfect ending to any ambitious card routine.

Learn it INSTANTLY.

Great ACR kicker

This is a great and easy gimmick that doesn't take long to make and that packs a punch for sure. Tom isn't the best teacher but he shows you clearly how to make and perform with it at it's most basic form.

Highly visual!

The concept behind the gimmick is super clever and you can make this workable for close-up!

Ambitious Ambitious

Is it clever?...Yes. Is it practical?...No. Will it work?...Yes. Will I use it?...No. This seems to solve a problem that does not exist but could be useful for online eye candy or as a special one off. You don't want to be switching this gaff in and out ,but it is nice to know you have one more option in the universe of card magic.

Very clever and astonishing way to

...finish an ambitious card ! For some reasons, people LOVE ambitious card routines. This is the kind of climax that they'll remember for sure.

The effect is impressive, the method is clean and the explanations are crystal clear

Andrew Why
Good effect that takes effort to create.

The effect itself is very good. As a standalone, it is a little lacking. The challenge is to work out where this effect fits into your routine. The gimmick itself is very good and it is easy to make - once you have sourced the ingredients. Overall, if you put the effort in to prepare, you have a strong visual effect on your hands.

Great effect

This effect is great! It's easy to do the gimmick and the setup is really quick. It's also easy to do. I'm goung to use it as the final stage of the Ambitious Card effect.

First gimmick trick I bought

Air ambitious is amazing visual trick, and can’t be incorporated into anyone’s ambitious routine. Tom is amazing teacher and funny, and helps you build the gimmick quite easily. This is the ufirst gimmick I build and though a bit difficult to make the precise cuts, its well worth it. Amazing trick!

Ingenious !

I didn't know what to expect. The method leaves the card to be handed out ! Very intricate to make. For me this is a new idea. Can be used for more than Ambitious Card.

Simply a piece of iginuty

Love this so much easy very easy and a complete ending to ambitious

It's ok.

I mean, it's not terrible. But the description says "...using a rarely used principle in magic...", and I am not sure that is true. I wasn't a fan of the handling (which isn't "rarely" used) or the kind of gimmick (which also isn't "rarely" used). I guess I was curious about that specific line in the description and was disappointed when I saw the explanation.

I’ve been thrilled with the service all around. No issues at all, and the instructions are easy to follow

Tom’s at it again!

Another banger from Tom the man the myth! A great worker. Easy to ring in and out. And such a great visual moment. The gimmick. You may not have all the needed items to make it at home. BUT if you’ve ever made a gimmick you may have the bits needed. If not a quick cheap Amazon order will work. It’s not too hard to make either. I’m not a gimmick maker by no stretch. But it was relatively easy build. But once you built. This will be your new fave ambitious ending. It’s fun to practice too!
Nice one guys. Can’t wait to see more

I just purchased and watched the "making the gimmick" vid and I am only rating at this point on the "stuff needed" question... I have only made a couple of gimmicks before and seriously, I have EVERY one of the things needed in my toolbox. Basic stuff IF you make gaffs. If you have never made a gaff, then yes, you will have to go shopping for $20 worth of stuff. But then you will have what you need to make lots of fun things.

pretty good, will make a sound and you willed something you most probably don't have other than that very good

very clever gimmic! The reason i put 2 stars is simply for the false advertising from the trailer, they make it seem that the gimmic fits in the deck and it doesnt affect it while handling.. that is not true! You cant have the gimmic in the deck while not performing this specific trick! and its also not that "simple" to make! I bought it expecting to use it every day and leaving it in the deck like other gimmics..but that is not the case.. It is not well advertised! Also you will need other stuff to make it,apart from an exacto knife that was expected of course (like they saw in trailer)..but not everyone has access to those stuff that easy...that is why for me ..although i loved the trick and i was realy exited that i bought it, i was desapointed at the end, as i explained earlier why..

Summary

It's an ok download, Tom is hilarious and does a good job at teaching, but the effect isn't too reliable in my experience. I would give it 4 starts, but I removed one because there is an ad in the middle of the video. After paying for an instructional video, finding a Magic Stream ad interrupt the teaching is not great.

It's a great trick, fantastic gimmick! A little hard to get down but will keep practicing it to see if I can get the knack down. It's still an awesome trick. Gimmick is easy to make so not gonna give up on it. It's such a genius method.
