THEY NAME A NUMBER. Any bearing from 0 to 360. THEY CHOOSE A DIRECTION. They point anywhere they like and north obeys, the needle settling exactly where they wanted it to go and you land on the same number they named WHY PERFORMERS CARRY IT A 100% real, examinable compass total deniability Completely hands-off and selfworking your focus stays on them Instant reset, works anywhere, nothing to prepare Multiple reveal styles and triggers so it never looks the same twice Custom faces, backgrounds, and 9 languages Let them examine it all night. There's nothing to find. DirectionX. The needle never lies. Not for laymen.
