SYNOPSIS:
Repertoire II is Asi Wind’s second major collection of professional performance material and the sequel to his 2018 book Repertoire. It contains more than twenty-five techniques and routines developed after the first volume, including effects Wind has performed on television and in his Off-Broadway show Inner Circle. The book emphasizes polished, audience-tested card magic, with detailed attention to handling, construction, timing, and deceptive performance conditions.
Two extended sections form the core of the book:
The XY Deck is Wind’s variation on the stripper deck. It is designed to be relatively easy to construct and allows applications beyond those possible with a conventional stripper deck. The section teaches its construction, the strip-out mechanics, and routines such as Reds and Blacks, Instant Shuffle-Bored, and Anybody and Nobody. Wind used Reds and Blacks, a shuffled-deck version of Out of This World, as the closing routine in Inner Circle.
Card to Box and Card to Wallet explains Wind’s method for secretly loading a card into a box or wallet, including handling suitable for surrounded close-up conditions and a separate stage version. Applications include Ambitious Ending, Under & Inside, Last Second, Think Twice, All In, It All Adds Up, and C2B Prediction.
Other material includes the Fan Force, Noah, Gang of Four, Phoning It In, Ex Nihilo, The Verdict, Wild Name, 3D Telepathy, and Center Burn. The effects range from card coincidences, predictions, and impossible locations to billet-reading and thought-revelation material, but playing cards remain overwhelmingly central.
