Mental Tape Board is the ultimate prediction system for mentalists and magicians who like to keep things simple (and a bit cheeky). It’s compact enough to toss in your bag, so you can whip it out whenever the mood strikes!
At first glance, it’s just a regular drawing board, but there’s a sneaky little mechanism inside that lets you pull off some mind-boggling predictions.
Effect:
A spectator names a name, word, or number of their choice. The board, complete with a strip of black tape on the back, is in full view. When you peel off the tape, the prediction matches exactly what the spectator said (no, really!).
Mental Tape Board is inspired by the Master Prediction System but has been stripped down to the bare essentials, leaving you with:
The prediction clearly visible from the start
No need for assistants (because who has the time?)
No pesky electronics
No complicated setup (seriously, it’s a breeze)
A plethora of performance variations
Compact and lightweight — easy to carry around
Great for both stage and close-up magic
A fully self-contained system
There’s also an alternative version with an envelope:
Depending on how you fancy presenting it, you can swap the tape for an envelope stuck to the back of the board, which holds your prediction. Feeling adventurous? Combine predictions: one on the board behind the envelope and another on a slip of paper inside!
