First I heard of it, Thanks for sharing. I looked it up, looks amazing! Wonder if it can be performed standing ?

I'm guessing this is similar to the method of some of his work in World's End, e.g. this routine: https://youtu.be/wtCYooS4Mhs?t=75
It looks virtually identical, just with all unique coins instead of them all being the same.

I'm not going to tip the method publicly (PM me, and I might give you a hint), but it's definitely not a camera trick.
I haven't constructed the gimmick, so haven't tried it myself, but it seems relatively straightforward. It does require the table/mat (just being there; they're not special), but doesn't require any la***ng, so you could, in theory, do it while standing, though it might be a tad more awkward.

I hope that helps a little. It is very visual, but not useful for much past matrix work.

Nice. I have never been good at Chink-A-Chink (hate that name!) or The Matrix. With the necessary coins, this looks easy. And magical!

Gorgeous! Just like his other Chink-A-Chink routine from World's End.

I am curious about this one. Can the gimmick be used for other tricks or just for his chink a Chink? Would you suggest to buy this one or worlds end first? I heard worlds end was very difficult and required lots of dexterity.

World's End is many different routines (you can see the performances on all of them on youtube). Most are difficult, and use different types of coins.

I don't have Shogyo Mujo, so I can't say for certain, but it looks like one (maybe two?) matrix routines. There's less going on, mostly the use of the gimmick, but that doesn't mean it's easy. Which is better for you depends on what kinds of routines you like. If you don't like Matrix routines, that's probably not the one to start with... On the other hand, it does come with the gimmick, while World's End does not.

I just got it. It is awesome and not too difficult. I am a beginner/intermediate and I can do it. I'm not a performance level yet, but I will be. (I just tried it for the first time this morning.) The instruction is great, no words, but text on the screen. He does one explanation very slowly, then another slightly quicker run through so you can follow along. (both over the shoulder) The gimmick uses three actual coins and is well made. If you were to break it somehow, you could easily fix it or make a new one yourself. It also comes with a see-through plastic card to use in the other trick (there are only two routines). The second one is a bit more difficult but if you are a coin magician, it should be no problem for you. I am very happy with my purchase and would recommend it to people who love chink-a-chink/matrix type stuff.

Looks great! Sadly as I don't use a close up pad or work seated, it's not for me but I'm sure many will buy it. Have fun...

Wow. Didn't expect that. Any indication when it'll be back?
