For the Thorp shuffle on $2^d$ cards, we prove that the worst-start total-variation distance after $32800d$ physical shuffles tends to zero as $d\to\infty$. Combining our fixed-list estimate with the companion Fourier transfer improves this bound to $512d$ shuffles. These results follow from bounds on partially observed permutation laws in random coordinate frames.
