@Chocobaby1990 Hi Choco. The Akira Fuji Classic pass is the same as any classic pass. However, note that people over time make their personal minor variations to passes (such as the way they position their hands). Akira Fuiji's pass so nice and flawless because he practiced a lot and knows how to angle himself properly.

@Chocobaby1990 I'll try to explain the riffle pass, since my camera is not working right now. 1) Do the pass, [choose either 2a or 2b, which ever is more comfortable for you] 2a) in the classic pass hand position (assuming you are right handed), the left thumb will push down the center of the deck after doing the pass. At the same time, the right thumb will riffle the card upwards immediately after the pass.

@Chocobaby1990 Post continued...... 2b) Instead of using the thumb, after the pass, your right index will curl and push down on the top of the deck and continue to riffle the card upwards using your right thumb after doing the pass.

after practice, you should get it good and unnoticeable .Remember, there is no shortcut to doing the pass well. It's all practice to get the know-how yourself.

i can do the pass pretty quickly i just cant hide it worth a crap! i have video taped myself and practiced with freinds, infront of a mirror, you name it. I just cant hide it, they always see me do it. it seems like ive tried every angle on a prtractor possible! and when every one elsedoes it they hide it so well. Like you. Idk if its the size of my hands or what, i just cant get away with the invisible or the classic pass without being spotted or making a ruffle noise

[GravitationSolstice]

@flubber924 The ruffle noise should disappear after more practice, unless if for some reason, you may not be doing it correctly. Your hand size "could" be the problem, although as long as it isn't small, you should be able to manage well.

Maybe you already have, but try taking the deck, go into the pass position, and then adjust the angles in front of the mirror to shown only the top of your right hand. Then try the pass. You will see the pass being done, but make sure your left hand isn't.

thz so much i have been practising classic pass for a long time but i still can't do it perfectly, afterr seeing your video, i know where is my problem

[Neji8Diagrms64Palms]

TIP FOR SMALL HANDED PPL =D use a bridge size deck that helped me practise =P

[Gwimsta]

hi I really want to do this, but my right hand keeps blocking the cards, so is it because I'm doing it wrong or are my hands too small?

[Moizjehangir]

@xNicoTiK make sure your fingers are barely contacting the top packet.. it screws up if the top packet is contacting your fingers... and just keep practicing!

[xNicoTiK]

How can I increase the speed of my pass ? I've go trouble passing the top half to the bottom quickly without getting caught ... Is there something I can buy to practice? I haven't got the cards to do 2 blocks of cards ... HELP please !

[Chopingboard]

if you do it right it doesn't matter if you go too far left or right.

[RS1963]

You need to work more on your pass. The major problem you have is that what as known as the Triangle of death. Is very visible while your performing your handling on the pass.

[iManipulateCards]

Ok first off, before you can TEACH ANY MOVE, you should do it well first. This was terrible, I dont care how long ago it was posted. Akiras's pass is a beautiful move, and you;re just exposing it in a TEXT RESPONSE?!!?! When magicians talk about guys who ruin and expose magic, they mean you. You don't even deserve to know how to do this move.
