Sleight-of-hand master Akira Fujii has transformed the ordinary close-up mat into a captivating performance tool. His innovative techniques offer a range of magical effects, including card transpositions, monte routines, penetrations, and coincidences. This download features five unique routines along with essential sleights such as palms, steals, and loads, highlighted by Akira’s prized “Sidewinder” technique, which alone justifies the purchase.

With merely a deck of cards and a close-up mat, endless magical possibilities are at your fingertips!

Routines:

Perfect MATch: A mystery card is placed beneath the mat while the spectator names any card. To their astonishment, the named card is shown to be missing from the deck, revealing that it was the very card set aside before the performance began!

Mat Monte: This engaging monte routine culminates in a stunning finale where the money card inexplicably swaps places with a card hidden under the mat just moments earlier.

Card Through Mat: Akira employs this as an ambitious card phase, where a signed selection visually penetrates through the deck and reappears under the mat.

Flash Appearance: Although this routine doesn’t directly utilize the mat, it serves as the inspiration for the Mat Tricks system. In addition to the card production, Akira reveals his remarkable “Sidewinder” technique in detail.

Four-for-Four: In a breathtaking moment, four Aces placed under the mat instantly switch places with four Kings held in hand. This visually stunning piece of sleight-of-hand also teaches an asymmetrical transposition involving four Kings and one Ace.

Running Time: 45 minutes
