Title: Great Accessory for Many Illusions
Review: This isn't a magic trick by itself, but it really makes a lot of other tricks look more professional. The soft surface makes some moves a lot easier, too.This closeup pad is like a giant mouse pad. It has rubber backing with a soft cloth top that doesn't snag. It seems pretty durable and I'm looking forward to many years working with it. 12x17 didn't sound very big, but it is! I did a few tricks on it like coin matrix and cups and balls and found it nice and spacious. Cards fan like a dream on it! I even dropped a half dollar from a foot above it and it deadened the sound nicely. This is a keeper!Update - 2012 From five stars to two...Ok, it's not so much of a keeper. After a year of rolling and unrolling it for storage and transport, the soft facing came completely off the rubber backing. I've switched to a couple pieces of felt spray-glued together, and it has been just as good and far more durable. This magic pad worked fine for awhile, then just fell apart.
