Leo Smetsers' Paddle - Back with Richard Sanders' Blessing
In 2012, Richard Sanders dazzled the magic community with an effect that had everyone talking: Turbo Stick. The brainchild of Leo Smetsers, and now with Richard’s thumbs-up, Leo’s paddle routine is back in action!
Leo is one of the busiest magicians on the planet – smashing gigs at private parties, swanky restaurants, corporate shindigs, and trade shows week in, week out. And guess what? There’s one piece that always makes the cut: this brilliant paddle routine.
After countless performances in the real world, Leo has whittled down the routine to its absolute essentials – no fluff, no faff, just pure impact. Some paddle tricks meander along... but this one hits fast, visual, and hard. It’s a commercial dynamo that grabs the audience’s attention from the very first move.
