Then snap the pen in a downward motion at the same time roll it over 180 degrees. Now that you have secretly forced your spectator to select RED, it is time for the instant color change move! Show both sides again to have multicolored dots using the paddle move.

If six is selected, say out loud S, I, X, and then count down black (S), yellow (I), RED (X). If five is selected, say out loud F,I,V,E and then count up purple (F), green (I), blue (V), RED (E). If four is selected, say out loud 1, 2, 3, 4 and then count up purple (1), green (2), blue (3), RED (4). If three is selected, say out loud 1, 2, 3, and then count down black (1), yellow (2), RED (3). If two is selected, say out loud T, W, O, and then count down black (T), yellow (W), RED (O). If one is selected, say out loud O, N, E, and then count down black (O), yellow (N), RED (E).
#1 2 3 4 PEN REVERSE TRICK HOW TO#
Demonstrated below is how to force the color red. The goal is for your spectator to think he or she selected the red color. Then ask your spectator to name any number between one and six.

Start by showing the pen’s multi-colored dots by using the Paddle Move to make your spectator think both sides have multicolored dots. Do this same move in reverse to return the HotRod to the original position (Paddle Move in Reverse). The larger motion of turning hides the smaller motion of twisting/rolling. This is a two part move: turning the HotRod over while at the same time rolling the HotRod 180 degrees. Notice, that the other fingers stay still. Now move Index back and forth making this kind of movement. To practice how to move Index Finger you can hold the pen in 12 Palm Side, fingers are straightened, relaxed. The HotRod falls to the opposite side, showing the multi-colored dots again. You should straighten it up faster than the others and put it a bit above Middle, leading the mod, and then move it below Middle. As you do this, you need to twist/roll the HotRod between your thumb and index finger 180 degrees to the opposite side. Lift the HotRod up as if you are going to expose the same colored side. Hold the HotRod with the multi-colored dots facing up between your thumb and index finger. This is a deceptive technique used to show two sides of the HotRod to be the same. Using what’s known as the “Paddle Move,” the HotRod is shown to have six multi-colored dots per side and magically the dots all become red!
