The Fabulous CICADA My Locking Clipboard, especially designed for preshow work! More history: For decades, the state-of-the-art preshow board has been Nelson's Ultra-Perfect clipboard, but what's up with that weird clip? It looks like nothing you see in the real world. So, to make a long story short, I decided to go to the drawing board and use the Hornet technology to make the perfect preshow clipboard. The Cicada is the result. It has a natural-looking clip that's easily removable in about fifteen seconds -- yet is IMPOSSIBLE for an audience member to remove while drawing a picture or writing a word -- does not use carbon paper for the information-capturing device (it uses the same sensitive technology as the Hornet, so you don't ever have to replace anything) and looks completely like a regular Masonite board that you would buy at any office store for a dollar. In fact, it's a twin for the Brown Hornet. It gives clear, reliable impressions, resets quickly, and there's no way that audience members can accidentally open the unit or stumble upon the secret. The internal mechanism is recessed, so there's never any tell-tale bulge. The outer surface is thin but durable, to maximize the clarity of the impression. In my opinion, this is the most nearly-perfect and natural looking preshow clipboard that's ever been designed. When you see the internal mechanism, you'll chuckle with an evil delight! I've kept the price the same as the Brown Hornet for now ($125), even though there's more than a little work involved. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

When I
introduced the Brown Hornet to the mentalist world, it was called a "Quantum
Leap in mentalist's Clipboards." I designed the Brown
Hornet to provide an
instant-access means to obtain information -- that is; to got the information
during the show. However, many performers have used the Brown Hornet as a
Pre-show device. In my opinion, the Hornet is best used during the show,
when you have better audience management, and there's less risk of the
participant accidentally opening the board.
