I bought this and I wish they recommended to buy the replacement spools right off the jump. Because as someone that’s never used an ITR before, I used up the entire spool in literally a few hours of practicing just cus i kept accidentally snapping the thread. The replacement spool is 12m long but the spool that comes with it is definitely much shorter
To be honest the previous version was so much better because you can control the thread tension and when do you want to levitate the object plus, you can stop the object in middle air and then catch it in your hand. Still a good version though. Venom from magie factory please.
I have 2 questions 1. Is the tension created by Soul technology as good as the Spider Pen X? Or does the Spider Pen X have better tension than the Tarantula 2? 2. Can I throw the ring on the ground and have it return to my hand? Or is the motor not strong enough?
I just found your channel this week and I wish i found you sooner! I've been street magician for the last 20 years and I have dealt exclusively in Card routines. I love cards but ive recently developed an desire to broaden my repertoire and include other mediums then just cards! I like your review! I personally think the Trantula 2 is a bit advanced for me. Also i Don't know what a ITR is. Looking forward to watching many more of your videos!!!
The only problem with is the constant holding in the hand to perform the effects. Your hand has to be curled in a palming position all the time while its in your hand.
@@magicorthodoxy you did a review on it no? Which was better in your opinion? As there both very similar as I don’t want to waste a extra 250 on gravity if it’s not worth it you know please
A nice touch was that Yigal used visible t****d for some of the explanations. This is my first ITR and Yigal makes it look deceivingly easy in the video. Keeping the device in place takes some practice. Its going to take time to develop but I think the payout will be huge. Thanks as always.
Alright your opinion, lost my spider pen pro. My favorite effect was the haunted deck with the spider pen pro. Never used a tarantula... do you recommend me buying another spider pen or trying the tarantula 2. The spider pen is more expensive. However I’m also wondering which one can perform more tricks than the other. Some insight on this would really be helpful for my decision. Thank you very much and great review by the way!
i was dissapointed to find that the lifesaver routine involves eating something other than the lifesaver, im sure it wont kill anyone but still not a snack id choose
@@magicorthodoxy Probably not. I do corporate events, however I do street magic a lot more. If that's the case are you saying the tarantula 2 would better suit me? Also, other than the fact that one is a dressy pen and the other isn't, are they different from each other in any different way? Or is it the same ITR in a different housing? Thanks again for reaching out so quickly.
I have the tarantula 1 but the gimmicks is tricky u got to be carefull to be sure people are not looking there.. i dont know anything about the version 2 but it look better
Hi, I got Tarantula 1 years ago and still struggle to use it. I want to ask what is the difference compared to Spider Pen Pro? Which one can pull out more tricks? Which one do you think is better, for beginning with ITR? Thanks!
they are 2 totally different user types. Spider Pen Pro is more for "suits and ties" and tarantula is more for street. I'd say just get a standard ITR like the "titan" or the "thread boss" or "Micro ITR" those are easier than all the other "name brands"
David, do you have any experience with the i boss ite? If so, would you recommend it. My history with IT is a bit... broken... lol. I think it would be better for me to buy a cheap itr and experiment with it before getting T2 and probably breaking it. By the way, what differences do you find between this and the spider pen pro (besides the physical location and "caseing" that operates the gimmick.)
Cool review. I personally had a difficult time keeping the gimmick in "place". The wax that came with it was minimal so that is an additional cost that is needed very quickly. The start and stop function is not as smooth as I had hoped for, however I am sure there is a fair bit of user error on my part and practice needed. Also when the thread breaks ( and it happens often) it is a time consuming and cumbersome process. Its not a bad product all things considered. I think it will just stay in my drawer for awhile.
Would this be better than the pen? I was fighting with IT yesterday and just gave up, will this frustrate me the same way? Is there anything different out there, or will it all be this way, I have l@$ps and they work cool.
Is there a way, to stop the thread on the first tarantula, from dissapearing into itself... its a great trick, but takes me forever, fishing the thread out, after i do an illusion.......
To be honest I don't know 😂. All of your video's are amazing , but if i have to chosse between tricks or decks I would chosse magic . When i watch your reviews of magic i can catch a little things so i could have idea of tricks. This is very helpfull for me and I just wanna say thank you. I Hope that I wrote understandably😂
Yep, add it to the giveaway. Well i live in Greece they dont have even medallions and madison players, most of your recent upload they dont have them. I wanna win too LeL.
The "secret' is the product. If you want to know how a trick is done, you need to buy it. A "review" tells you the good and the bad and what you get for your money so that you can make up your own mind.
Maybe start another top ten series, this time for different aspects of magic? For example levitation, mentalism, etc. Great review as usual!
!!!!
I have sooooo many of these to go back and start watching. This is going to be great.
LOL

Do you want to review venom by ellusionist ? Would be an interesting review ... :)
I agree it would be interesting
magicorthodoxy Something I really appreciate is that you answer as much as you can, so thanks for that and your awesome Reviews !! :)
Worthwhile for beginners? Or would you suggest a better starting point?
i'd start with a less expensive itr
I have 2 questions
1. Is the tension created by Soul technology as good as the Spider Pen X? Or does the Spider Pen X have better tension than the Tarantula 2?
2. Can I throw the ring on the ground and have it return to my hand? Or is the motor not strong enough?

What’s a better buy mate this or gravity?
GRAVITY REEL by João Miranda? How much experience do you have with thread and ITRs
@@magicorthodoxy you did a review on it no? Which was better in your opinion? As there both very similar as I don’t want to waste a extra 250 on gravity if it’s not worth it you know please
Great review, I’ve got this and love it. Have more fun than I should. Like you said they always look at the wrong thing.
ian scott ha ha
How experienced are you?
@@songsofthecentury3909 at what?
What would you rather have Tarantula 2 or Gravity reel.
tarantula

Thank you for the review.
Glad it was helpful!
Would you suggest this over spider pen pro? Would they routine well with one another?
one or the other - Spider pen if your persona matches wearing an elegant pen in a breast pocket
Thanks pen suits me more but I want to hear it from you :)

I guess he didn’t want to help you.
i was dissapointed to find that the lifesaver routine involves eating something other than the lifesaver, im sure it wont kill anyone but still not a snack id choose
? you do eat the lifesaver , but only if you want to - if you don't like it - use a breath mint or any small candy
magicorthodoxy I mean you have to eat more than just the mint I didn't want to reveal too much
You can use naturally sourced stuff from bees.
Charlotte Kemp the string? Lol 🤦🏻♂️
I dare you add this in the monthly giveaway :p
You're right. I won't
LOL!
What is better? The Tarantula 2 or the Spider Pen Pro? Thinking about buying one but don't know which one is better.
Spider Pen Pro is a "dressy pen" is that prop going to best suit your character?
@@magicorthodoxy Probably not. I do corporate events, however I do street magic a lot more. If that's the case are you saying the tarantula 2 would better suit me?

@@hia1762 sounds like you need both
I have the tarantula 1 but the gimmicks is tricky u got to be carefull to be sure people are not looking there.. i dont know anything about the version 2 but it look better
THANKS !!👍
If you can own one, will it be Tarantula II or Spider Pen Pro?
for me? Spider Pen
Thanks a ton for the review!!!
!!!
Nice vid man....keep up the good work
thx
small question, does this lst a while or do u need to buy special thread ?
how long things last depends on how well you take care of it
He thought you meant the reel itself and not the thread. From all the other comments I’ve read, one needs to buy additional thread.

I agree, for my money, I'd just as soon get a cheap one since I have terrible luck with IT
You did the reivew of Tarantula 2!!! I did it too.:) and today I upload it!! It`s really hot Item isn`t it?
YES !!!! HOT HOT HOT
I think someone already mentioned it in the comments but i'd love to see a venom review just to have a head to head comparison
it'd sure be awesome wouldn't it?
finalllyyy
:D
venom from magie factory !!!
great idea !!!
Love the review david
:D
Is this invisbilty better than loops
yes

IT and me .... are not friends
There is a reset for certain effects, like the life saver one. Other than that, great product and great review, as per usual.

@@jerryRp90x nope, gave it away in a contest
Does it has batterys or a Akku
Great video, thank you. Can you do a review on Venom by Magie Factory? They claim that to be the best ITR...
that would be awesome

Is the Tarantula 2 as hidden(hidden position)and good quality as The first one?
I suppose so
Cool thanks

Like we say around here - there are negatives to everything. Or are there? :)
bua ha ha ha ha
Please can you do a review of Venom by Magie Factory? There are no reviews on the internet and for a 159$ itr I trust only your opinion
for that much money I doubt I will be buying it either. LOL
I actually didn't tell us the negatives of Tarantula II
maybe there aren't any? maybe it's in the blooper reel? maybe you have to type in a secret password to access them?
yep
yep
Can this be used for a stage performance in front of an audience?
I suppose so with the right routine
magicorthodoxy thank you 👌
How difficult is it to replace the thread, as compared to the spider pen pro?
much easier
Can you pls do tarantula 2 vs spider pen ?
great idea
magicorthodoxy i am thinking on what to get and since they are so similar idk what to get
Im looking to purchase vapr or tarantula idk which
pick the one that fits your performance style
Is there also thread contained? If yes, how much?
Everything I know, I said in the review
Not much thread tbh but also I suck so I kept snapping it and ran out very quick lol
Sir...what should I buy spider pen pro or tarantula 2. Please tell
Does it come with much wax?
you should ALWAYS buy extra wax when purchasing ITRs and thread
What Tarantula II can do, that Spider Pen X cannot?
www.themagiccafe.com/forums/viewtopic.php?topic=292715&start=0
Can you do the floating Livesaver illusion if you're bald? :P
He liked your comment but not enough to answer the question.
venom from e is 159usd, but you get 2 devices, so go figure, get whichever works for you
go figure
Is there a way, to stop the thread on the first tarantula, from dissapearing into itself... its a great trick, but takes me forever, fishing the thread out, after i do an illusion.......
Is the thread included ?
yes
other then youtube, how do you make an income?
I'd barely call youtube an "income" ha ha
Do you ship to Russia?
I am not a store
Bro it's on his hands
wait... what are the negatives?
OH NO !!!!!!
Is it possible to send you an effect to review??
a physical, holdable, touchable effect? Yes. I don't review downloads
magicorthodoxy its a mentalism app. It allows you to unlock the spectators phone.
+Miguel Cruz yeah sorry I don't I don't review apps either. Good luck
Is there any assembly?, because I would like to purchase it as long as there is not any assembly
no assembly, but there is upkeep
Is it adjustable? Because my hands are very small
What if your finger is smaller and it doesnt fit
then it won't work as well for you
magicorthodoxy Thank you! Would have bought it instinctively... What other ITR could I use?
He is pretty much right with everything he said, I only disagree with one thing: I actually liked he music in the instruction video.
LOL
The hurricane hit, I have no power, I'm dying, I love this trick.
Hurricane's SUCK!!!!! (I;m in Texas, remember)
magicorthodoxy oh yea. If this trick has a motor does that mean that it is too loud to do up close is in quiet area
So is it like a motor with a string attached to it? Please respond
you can find pictures of it on google images
@@magicorthodoxy why won't you tell me 😅
@@magicorthodoxy every UA-cam is like this why?
my guess would be the ring is the gimmick!
that would be most people's guess
Can you review venom from ellusionist and the do a verses
i'd love to
If anyone can help me I have a question. Can the Tarantula 2 levitate a card and float around your body like the Hummer card levitation?
+La Araby not the same way. Watch hummer card performed while remembering tarantula is a hand hookup
Ok thank you.
Spider pen pro or tarantuala
you have to pick the one that works for your character. Would it look normal for you to carry a metal pen in a breast pocket?
Is not available in my country Philippines
ok
To be honest I don't know 😂. All of your video's are amazing , but if i have to chosse between tricks or decks I would chosse magic .

How is this a review when you are only talking and not showing the product?
The "secret' is the product. If you want to know how a trick is done, you need to buy it. A "review" tells you the good and the bad and what you get for your money so that you can make up your own mind.
