Adam wilber show to go.
STAGE MEETS STREET.
As the stand-out piece of Adam Wilber's Show-To-Go, TSA is his version to ring/wallet/watch.
Known only to those lucky few kit owners, TSA was hailed as being worth 10 times the price of the set on it's own. and it is.
Filmed earlier this year on the streets of Las Vegas, even the most impressive card tricks could not compete with TSA.
It drew crowds and shattered expectations.
With TSA, you throw all of your personal items into a TSA bag (the kind airport security would use to seize your items), but when it's ripped open it's found to be completely empty and everything is back on your body. The watch is on your wrist, the phone is back in your pocket and the money appears back in the wallet THEY'RE HOLDING.
Okay, I like parts of it.
Using a phone instead of a ring (in the original versions) will probably nowadays make more sense to many people. Although the bag shouts gimmick (to a magician - not necessarily to a lay person), I like the fact that he supposedly squeezes it to imply there is nothing in it. I hope that one of the phone gimmicks and watch gimmicks can actually be squeezed or folded? It is clearly easier to perform than many other similar routines, since the gimmicks does it all for you. Many people will prefer this version for that reason alone. Maybe he should put a mark on the wallet to make sure he opens it from the right side (at least the trailer shows he gets away with opening the wallet the wrong way first).
However, In most European countries we are not familiar with the term "TSA", so I suggest the bag should also bee available without TSA written on it.
I'm not sure its an improvement to any other versions, except that its easier to perform, and makes it easier to perform surrounded.
IMHO I believe other versions to be stronger, at least in a close up setting. I prefer that I can tear the envelope into pieces like in most ring, watch, wallet routines. They however, have other issues, like angle problems, and slightly more difficult handling.

This. I've no idea what TSA stands for, though I am sure google would tell me. Not only that, how in the world have do you explain you got one of their bags, without saying 'I'm a magician, how do you think?!'. There are aspects I like, but certainly for me needed a lot more thought before releasing to the masses.
Copies of the limited edition 'MindPlay' still available.

This looks nice. But like others, the TSA hook (and branding) is not for me.
And with the TSA hook of putting money in the bag while keeping the wallet with the spec, it seems a bit off. Again, I would not use this the TSA plot but something to consider.
Also, while the phone is certainly more visible, there is something magical about the ring back on the finger, especially in close-up/street.
But overall, this does look solid and has its pros over other versions.
Mark and I was pulled by the T S A in America for having slush powder they are pretty scary people.
I like the bag as I can talk about a real life event so that will work for me.
I agree about the money I’m going to replace that with a ring myself.
The phone is great and to make this a little bit more convincing I’m going to have my ear phones playing music.
And have the music start again in the background of the story.
I do think it needs some tweaks but I do realy like it.

Agree. One can purchase !@#$ phones.
In my opinion this is a weak attempt of Tommy Wonder's approach to the plot by Oswald Williams.
I encourage any young scholars to purchase The Books Of Wonder (Vol 1, pg 302) and read what makes Tommy's approach to this plot so deceptive.
It is the fact that each individual item that is placed into the envelope is vanished by a different method. Each method cancels any thoughts of the other and thus the procedure is strengthened as a whole - ultimately making the procedure near impossible to reconstruct (I'm paraphrasing from the Book).
Simply placing the items into a $14 "Rip Apart Vanish/Change Bag" weakens this strong effect. There are also additional issues with the presentation regarding why the money is removed from your wallet and how you gained possession of a non existent TSA bag?
Even though I wouldn’t buy this, I think the vanish moment of this version is clearer than that of Mugged.

While I agree with that Tommy Wonder’s one is the best version, I also find this version also has some advantages. 1)the objects can be bigger and changed to something suits your style and venue. 2)The set up is quicker and easier. This is good for entertainer.
Basically, the effect of both Tommy’s version and this version is same. Like you said, one of the advantages of Tommy Wonder’s method is using different way to vanish. And this version is using one method. If the audience try to guess how the objects vanish, what they think is probably close to the secret since the critical item is suspicious and cannot be examined.(in Tommy version, the envelope is torn and tossed)
Therefore, if someone would like to use this version and is willing to pursue perfect outcome , solving above problem is essential. Maybe try to apply magic way analysis for this method is helpful.
