Pom Pon Wand by Vincenzo Di Fatta (VDF)

DiFatta has freshened up the look to this classic effect by creating a version that uses a big magic wand instead of the usual stick.

The magician shows a large black magic wand with white tips. A piece of string passes through each end. There are different colored pom-poms attached to each end of the string. The magician pulls up or down on one of the pom-poms on one side to show that the two pom-poms are joined together by the same cord that runs vertically through the wand. He then does the same with the pom-poms on the other side...Now the fun begins!

When the magician pulls up or down one of the pom-poms of one side of the wand, the audience will see one go up on the other side. This is repeated with growing participation and fun for the audience, that will go crazy trying to understand how the pom-poms are magically connected. The pom-poms can be pulled as desired, but the final result will not change. Naturally at the end everybody will believe that the pom-poms on each side are connected through the wand to the pom-poms on the opposite side. But the magician then separates the wand in half, showing that there is absolutely no connection!

Easy to do. A real classic in magic. The wand can be taken apart for easy transport. Great for any kind of show, and really a must have for children's shows. The wand is 20.47"/52 cm and has a diameter of 1.18"/3 cm. The pom-poms have a diameter of about 3.14"/8 cm.

(And yes, DiFatta calls it "Pom-Pon," so that's the name to remember!)
