IMHO, Icarus is far superior.
It comes with everything you need to construct the gimmick and its less restrictive in terms of clothing choice. The construction is also much easier when compared to Criss Angel's.
Its more costly but you get space age material and it would last you a life time.
You get to face the audience when doing Icarus allowing better audience control. The angles are pretty good. In fact, I feel this is currently the best self levitation on the market. (2nd to MacFly though Ok, I am joking for those who knew about it.)
This will require time to construct and practice to get it smooth so don't expect to be Superman once you rip the package opened.

For Criss Angle effect is is also angle sensitve & u need a trench coat for better presentation, which is quite ridiculous if in Singapore.
For one who do not know Icarus Effect. Watch this video:

Beautiful effect. The plus point of this effect is that the package includes high end materials for you to construct the gimmick.
I would also like to correct zinally for the magician's name is spelled as Criss Angel. No offense bro, I dont think the way you spelled his name is acceptable. ^_^

By looking at the vids of both effect... I feel that the Icarus is better.
First the tilt of Criss body is too acute. Icarus is really vertical and facing the audience.

Icarus is crazy stiff, never ever get the criss angel 1, it is supid compare to Icarus, Criss angel levitation is far too sensitive compare to Icarus. :g:

the price is really expensive... :lol: :lol:

But i think its worth it to invest, consider that its cleaner than chris angel's one.
bigbadwolf - March 2, 2006 05:26 AM (GMT)
but how practical is it?
considering the angle, construction of the gimmick etc..
(criss angel's version was kinda difficult to construct...)
