A fashionable, copper dice which is threaded on a piece of thick string. Grab hold of this piece of string at both ends and hold it vertically. By repeatedly turning it upside down you can make the dice slide from one side to the other. Nothing special there. But then you ask a spectator, during the sliding motion of the dice, to call out 'stop' whenever he likes. And sure enough – the dice, miraculously, obeys the spectator’s voice and comes to halt at the designated point. Your audience soon gets the feeling of 'I can do that too'. This is why you hand over the 'Super Cubio' and ... the audience can then conclude that the dice has suddenly become uncontrollable!
A classic close-up trick in an exquisitely-made version. Instant reset feature. An undetectable secret. Simply delightful …
