One of magic's most exciting new creators, Sam Huang (aka Crazy Sam), is back with the ultimate project on cube solves.

"Crazy Sam's Solve" feattures Sam Huang's innovative breakthroughs on the instant cube solve. You won't believe these aren't CGI! But, not only are they real, but they're also super practical and have been designed to be performed for real people.

And the best part? It's all pure sleight of hand.

This video encyclopedia of cube solves contains incredible breakthrough concepts like:

• Expansion solve
• Show solve
• Drop solve
• Blow solve
• Flick solve
• Lock solve
• Shadow solve
• Switch solve
• Blur solve
• In their hands solve

You'll learn how to solve cubes with a flick of your fingers as if they were a light switch or by passing them through the shadow of your hand. Another favorite of ours is the gradual solve in which the colors slowly expand on one side until the entire cube is solved. Undoubtedly though, the standout for many of you will be the solve that happens while your volunteer holds the cube.

As this project is being released in conjunction with Henry Harrius, you know the teaching is exceptional quality as well. A top-quality RD practice cube is also included to enhance your learning experience.

You'll receive:

• 1 hour of detailed explanations (subtitles available in English, Chinese, Japanese, and Spanish)
• 9 amazing cube solves
• Multiple concepts that can be applied to existing techniques
• A full one cube routine
• RD practice cube

Unlock the secrets to the "Crazy Sam's Solve" and elevate your cube magic today!

Unfortunately, this is the lowest score I have ever given a VI product. I purchased Venom Cube (also from Henry Harrius) and the tutorial video that came with the product was fantastic, so I was expecting this to be on a similar level of quality. However, the fact that the audio is in Chinese (with English subtitles) makes it extremely difficult to use. You want to be able to listen to the directions while looking at your own cube/hands, but you simply can't (if you don't understand Chinese). In addition, the notation used is not explained and it took me a while to even understand it.

So while the actual cube stacks and solves are excellent, I rated it "Below standard" because it is exactly that - this is not the standard I have become used to for a VI product tutorial, and since basically the whole product that you are paying for is the tutorial (it comes with a cube which I have not yet received, so while I assume it's a great cube, I have 2 already that came with the Venom Cube and didn't need a third).

Some unsolicited advice for the VI crew: Take this off the market for a couple of months, hire a good English language voice-over reader to read the subtitles for the video and repost it so we can give it a 5-star rating.

I’ve learned a number of different types of Rubiks cube magic. This includes cube 3, cube 52 and REFRAKTOR. This is the first one I’ve purchased that doesn’t use standard notation to teach the algorithms. I think that’s unfortunate.

I realize that it takes some effort to learn standard cube notation, but it makes it much easier to practice algorithms, than watching a video where the manipulations are based on finger positions. I’m not sure how much I’ll use this video. I’ll give it a chance. But I’m going to end up having to write the notation myself so I have a way to practice other than watching the video over and over.

The tutorials with subtitles are hard to follow. Also, you cannot download the tutorials. Nine different solves and you have to keep signing in to watch the videos. Not very good!

 

John

I agree with Jeffrey. Had I know this was in chinese I never would have ordered it. The tutorial is very difficult to follow with subtitles.

 

Jeffrey

Henry and Sam offer good solves for the cube. However, the video is in Chinese with English subtitles. I found it very difficult to read the subtitles and follow the solve that was being shown. Had I known this, I probably would not have purchased it. It would be great if they had gotten someone to translate the dialogue into English.

• Roel asks: How easy/difficult is this? Can I use my own Rubik Cube?

  • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: There's not really any scale of difficulty one can use for any magic, let alone cube magic. Some are harder than others, that's really all I can say! And yes, you can use your own cube, there's no gimmicks involved!

• Nayos asks: Looks like this item is on pre-order. Any idea when it'll ship?

  • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: This Item is released on 28/06

• Terry asks: Can the spectator mix the cube?

  • 1. Mathieu answers: The cube is not gimmicked in any way. So unless you're really fast at solving a cube I would stick to false shuffles (one is taught in this project).

  Post an answer to this question

• Hudson asks: Would the solves fool a cubist?

  • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: Have a look at the trailer and see if you think they're fooling!

• Steven asks: Since there's no gimmicks involved will be there a download version without a new Cube? Would be nice to avoit unnassary shipping and safe time for people that already own this cubes.

  • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: The shipping is free, and the video will be added to your account when you purchase. Hope that helps set your mind at ease!

• Vince asks: Can you do multiple solves consecutively in a performance or is there a reset between presentations? Thanks.

  • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: There is small set ups between the solves

• Antonio asks: Hi, I dont know how to solve a CUBIC !!! for me takes long time, what happens if the CUBIC it is fully mixed, how do I RESTART??

  • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: your options at that point are to take the cube apart and put it back together in the right order, or learn how to do a real solve!

• Eric asks: i already have the cube. will there be a download only version?

  • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: There will not
  • 2. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: No plans we are aware of.
  • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: There will not

• Cameron asks: Are there any downloads with this or do I need to wait for the package to arrive?

  • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: There is a download and a package, if you already have the props at home you can get started straight away

• Ravi asks: Will there ever be a version in English?

  • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: At the moment the only instructions that are planned are the ones that are provided currently

• Joseph asks: For Antonio: STOP! There's no need to disassemble your cube. There are great free apps available that will help you solve a 3x3x3 cube from any mixed state in about 5 minutes. My favorite is CubeX (by Pipi Chick Studio) available on Google Play. I imagine there are similar apps for iOs, but I am a card carrying Android guy!
