This is my new matrix routine. Hope you like the idea.

Wow... just simply wow. The only thing I would recommend is working a little bit more positioning the coin into concealment. (Hopefully this doesn't count as revealment).

This was simply amazing. Keep up the good work!!!

STUNNING!

Only comment that I can make on the presentation was that I thought that the name of the routine - Australian Matrix' was used too often in the patter. Only a minor point and perhaps too picky.

As close to 'real' magic as I've seen for a long long time :lol:

Very envious of you talent and skill Rune :wink:

Wow.

Presentation was excellent. A repeated point, work on your concealment, although it will probably only seem obvious to people wise of the working.
Other than the slight finger movements, the routine is extremely clean, and you had me wondering why it was the austrailan matrix from the beginning. 10/10 anytime.

having watched again and considering Stevebo's comment, I think it perhaps works better without fully concealing all of the coins under the cards (assuming that's what you meant).

Just an personal view :lol:

I'm not fully sure I understand what you mean dat...

Rune, can you direct me as to where you learnt your coin palms and vanishes? Is it in Bobo's Coin Magic?

Thanks!

Edit: Australian coins are THAT big?!

yeah.. it's easy to follow.. but geez.. practically flawless... perhaps US quarters are too small for my hands... :?

hmm... or maybe just some more practice on handling.. :oops: *sigh*.. oh well.. nice job!

Haha, very nicely done there rune, absolutely flawless. I cannot get over your accent, it is so awesome. How long did it take you to master that trick? Oh, by the way, Aussie coins are not that size at all, thats probably a commemorative coin :lol: If anybody is interested in trading some of their currency with some Australian currency, PM me, because I want to try some vanishes with other coins! Once again, very nicely done Rune, keep them coming.

Nice matrix :)
As people have sad before, the coin concealment should be worked on..try to keep the fingers still while doing it (hard to give advices without revealing anything..) This is first time I've felt that I accutally should be able to contribute with a good point to Rune..(probably the last time to).

Stevebo, all the coin palms and vanishes are to be found in Bobos(or variations of them) but I found it easier to learn by Ammars dvd..

In about 2 months I should get a webcam so I also can record a few of my tricks(I'm not so good so I better practice alot during the next 2 months ;)

Thanks everyone for your comments.
Yes, this routine took quite a while to practice, and will still be practiced for a long time. I just wanted to tape it, and see what you guys thought about it. For the final coin, yes it is a australian 2 dollar coin (probably some old stuff), and my accent is... norwegian :)
