Ponta the Smith pushes the Charming Chinese Challenge to its ultimate limits with "PPP2".
You won't believe that there are no gimmicks or extra coins used in this stunning routine. Ponta's ingenious handling manages to get all the benefits of an extra coin without actually needing an extra coin.
"PPP2" is an fiendishly deceptive routine featuring a clear opening sequence, a surprise backfire phase, and a beautiful, impossible-looking finale.
This amazing routine is complemented with the perfect coins. These custom-crafted coins are inspired by Japan's oldest currency: the Fuhonsen. They've been redesigned specifically for CCC performances, particularly "PPP2". The large round hole, identical designs on both sides, and semi-soft finish make them a joy to handle.
You'll receive 3 of the specially-crafted coins, a 70cm ribbon with finished ends, and an explanation video.
This is a beautiful routine. No shells, no gimmicks of any kind. To a musician, playing the notes is different from playing the music. The "notes" of this routine are pure sleight of hand. I managed to master the notes in about 30 minutes. To get the routine to the point of making music will take a while, but the journey is well mapped out in the downloadable video. Learning this has been fun. Perfecting it will be an immersive challenge, but one I'm very much looking forward to. Beautiful magic.
Pretty disappointed in this. Don’t get me wrong it’s a cool routine. Had I purchased it as a 15 dollar download I’d be more pumped on it. However if you do coin magic the chances are good you have better Chinese coins than this at home. The tutorial itself is 6 minutes long and the routine is heavily dependent on a front shirt pocket. It can be modified to other pockets but you are going to lose so much of the naturalness by doing so I am not sure it’s worth it. For the price there are def better Chinese challenge options. However if you are super in love with the routine, don’t own any other Chinese coins and perform with a dress shirt on that has a front pocket this is a good buy. I personally wish I steered clear.
