“Back Palm” is a sleight of hand technique, highly revered in the realm of card magic. This maneuver involves holding a card, or multiple cards, in such a way that they are concealed from the audience’s view by the magician’s open hand, despite being held in plain sight. The technique leverages the natural lines and contours of the human hand to create an optical illusion of disappearance. While seemingly simplistic at first glance, mastering the Back Palm requires dexterity and precise control over minute movements for flawless execution. The method’s intrinsic deception has made it an enduring favorite amongst magicians, both amateur and seasoned, contributing to its status as a rite of passage in card magic acts performances.
