"InstaGrab" By Patrick Kun

Normally, I prefer to only perform things I myself have come up with. Very rarely do I ever find something so unique that I decide to add it to my own repertoire. "InstaGrab" by Patrick Kun is one of those exceptions. In this review I am going to talk a bit about why I think it is a great effect as well as dive into a bit of what you will receive upon purchasing the effect.

What is "InstaGrab?"

"InstaGrab" allows you to visually remove a card from a spectator's borrowed phone using your instagram profile as the method. The best part of this whole thing is that it does not require you to download any other app or use a special off site page to achieve the effect. You will use your actual instagram account! The best part? The image itself can be examined after the card is removed and the spectators will not be able to recreate what you just did!

​The effect itself is achieved by using a very clever device called "The Minimal Index System." This system allows you to gain immediate access to any thought of card, allowing you to produce a folded card from any object (like a phone for example.) The index system itself is extremely easy to use and one of the most practical index systems I have seen!

You will also receive a "starter pack" full of image files you can use for your instagram post. The limit however is your imagination because you can easily create your own images and pull basically watever you want out of your phone!

The Review!

Is the product high quality? YES! You will receive a high quality index holdout which allows you to produce a thought of folded card. The cards and gimmicks included with the index system are high quality and printed on bicycle cards as well. As for the quality of the tutorial video, it is extremely easy to follow, shot in HD and the instruction is clear and easy to understand.

Is the product practical to use? YES! This effect can be performed in just about any environment from stage to close-up. It uses minimal set-up and can be performed surrounded. The effect itself is easy to perform, allowing you to focus on the presentation and present a very clean and visual piece of magic!

Are there multiple applications? YES! Aside form the 2 different versions that Patrick Teaches you, there are literally hundreds of things you can do using this. The index system itself will allow you to pull a thought of folded card out of basically any impossible location. Using the "InstaGrab" method you can also pull just about any object you want out of any phone as well!

Verdict!

Is "InstaGrab" by Patrick Kun worth it? YES! This is more than just a card production. This will get you more followers on your Instagram account, allow you to perform something using a borrowed spectator's phone, and will leave them with an impossible trick that they can sit there and try to figure out themselves even after you have walked away. The effect is super easy to use, practical, takes up minimal pocket space, and has a ton of applications! I suggest you go check it out right away! Welcome to the new era of magic giving a whole new meaning to "Social Media Magic."
