• Kieran asks: I have three questions 1) Can i roll this mat up without creasing/ damaging it? 2) is it well made and durable? 3) is it suitable to perform coin matrix routines, as they normally work better on a more "spongy" pad?

  • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: 1) Yes, but don't roll it super tight—a loose roll is great. 2) Yes. 3) The top surface us very spongy, with the rubber base being more resilient. I have no troubles doing coin work on it.

• William asks: Which one is better? This or the V&B close-up pads?

  • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: There is no comparison. The Deluxe Close-Up Pad is a budget based pad that is mass produced. The V&B pad is a handmade work of art lovingly crafted by artisans.

• Jeffrey asks: I have a table that requires a half-circle closeup pad. I have measurements of the exact shape. Is this something that can be custom made? - Thanks!

  • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds: Check these out: https://www.vanishingincmagic.com/close-up-pads/custom/

• A asks: how well does this work with black art

  • 1. Dottore answers: That would depend on your black art material and the lighting.

By far the best closeup pad I have ever owned. I can't wrinkle it. I stuff it in my bag and it comes out perfect. Think enough to cushion anything I put on it yet firm enough to hold anything I put on it from a glass of wine to a prop.

 

Don

I have to agree with Michael. This is by far the sweetest close-up pad I have ever purchased. I was in the casino business for 29 years so the beautiful green color of the mat really lends itself to gambling routines. Don't spend 50 bucks or more on a pad...Murphy's Magic close up mats are the best. These mats have superior feel and texture.

Hello all. I just received my new "Deluxe Close-Up Pad". WOW! I have had many pads in my days. I have been associated with magic for about 56 years. Much like Vernon I wasted the first 5 years of my life. ; ) This is by far the best pad that I have ever seen and/or touched. This is so well made, so well padded and topped. Wonderful. This is also extremely well priced. The pad cost less than other pads I have gotten from my local magic store, which were much thinner, and lower quality. I am so pleased, I can hardly contain myself. Now I really look forward to the suede pads. Well done Andi, Jay, and Vanishing Inc personnel.

This is a fantastic pad, especially for the price! I bought the green pad. It is much thicker than my past pads. Most of my older pads started peeling on the corners. This one does not look like it will do that, but I haven't had it long. It rolls up easily to take with me which is the main reason I bought it. I wanted a pad to carry around with me.

These pads are excellent. I bought a 2nd one in case, for some reason, they are no longer produced. Green is the best color to choose. Why? Google "why are casino tables green?" I find the colors blue or red to be unnatural and distracting, and black is not very inviting. People love running the palms of their hands over these pads, and quite often compliment them. Unless you need a hard base, these are the ones to get!

Just reviewed the "Economy" version of this pad ... ordered 1 of each for comparison. This thickness and weight of this Deluxe pad is unheard of ... between my engineering calipers and a ruler, this comes in at about 3/8" or 9mm. When you womp this beast down on the table for your show the audience knows you mean business! This will never wrinkle, warp, bend or slide around, plus at this thickness it optically "elevates" your show from the table, distinguishes it from the surroundings. I agree with other reviews ... this is certainly firm, but not too hard and not too soft ... Mama Bear, Papa Bear, Baby Bear ... it's just right :) But pick & choose for your show ... if some coin/card routines call for softer for better pickup, have multiple pads on the table. For this price, however, this is the easiest gamble/experiment you will ever make. I estimated the Economy was about a $50 pad up here in Canada, and no idea what this monster would sell for, never seen anything like it.

I purchased a green 17 X 24 pad. The quality, size, and thickness are really good. However, I find the pad surface to be too hard and slick for card work that uses tabled riffle shuffles. I find the surface of the pad great for coins though. My search for the perfect affordable pad continues...

Took a chance with this and not happy. The material isn't like the classic Gibson close-up pad, but it's more like a mousepad/scuba material. It feels like a giant mousepad. It's too smooth for some card work and snags on your fingers/rough skin. The underlying padding is thick and feels nice.

Green is usually a great color for close-up pads, but this shade of green is a bit too bright -- perhaps the material reflects more light than the classic material. I like a plusher, darker looking green and this didn't cut it. I will delegate this for rough practice. but it won't be good for performances.
