Standing in the spotlight, you are seen holding a large silver ball. You step forward ...a hush comes over the audience ... music starts and you begin to perform. A wave of your hand and the obviously heavy ball becomes totally weightless, slowly rising from your outstretched hand. The ball comes to a complete stop, remaining motionless while suspended in mid air. On your command the ball gracefully travels across the stage and back again. Now it soars over your head, hovers, floats from hand to hand, through the circle of your arms and finally descends to your waiting hands as you take your bows to certain applause. This routine incorporates the charm, style and grace of what is frequently called the most beautiful effect in all of magic yet, allows you, the performer, to have much more freedom of movement as the ball floats in its various directions.
Please note that this is a stage effect, requiring one offstage assistant and the necessary offstage space. Comes complete with large (but lightweight) chromed plastic ball, rigging gimmicks and the complete Don Wayne system for the Floating Ball. A beautiful and highly recommended magical masterpiece!

Halloween
The Greatest Magic Un Earthed
Abbotts has begun working on its 2012 Halloween project which we have affectionately called “The Greatest Magic Un-Earthed” and it will compliment last years Halloween special (which ended up creating a new Halloween Magic category on Tops and also a new webpage of its own called Creepy Magic).
The difference this year is that instead of using Halloween to spice up magic, we will be using Magic to spice up Halloween.
Like we did last year we are looking for your idea’s on how to use magic and principles of magic to create killer Halloween illusions and decorations that one would expect to see when visiting a magicians home in October.
People who send in articles (pics and videos most welcome) will receive full credit for their contribution and will also receive a free instant download from Abbotts (select from any of our 700+ $4 downloads which we believe to be the largest selection of magic downloads un-earthed) Have multiple articles and you can have multiple downloads!
