Doing this shuffle always gets reactions and people's attention. It does establish you as a magician
rather than just some guy who does a few card tricks. It's not easy to master but eventually you'll
get the knack. Once learnt it's impossible to un-learn!

This is a skill that is going to take a while to learn, but once you do, you'll be glad you put in
all the effort. I only give it four stars because of the amount of time you'll need to devote to
learning this. It is also best to note that it will be a lot easier to do this with a newer pack of
cards. It's a lot harder to get the cards to weave if the edges are starting to fray. Other than
that, it's a great skill that you'll be glad you learned.

I like this flourish a lot. Those who say its impossible to do with small hands: trust me, its not
true. My hand can barely palm a card off without exposing the corners. At first when you try to do
it, it may feel like your hand is being stretched, but it eventually becomes quite natural. I gave
it four stars because I think that the Long distance spinner is a better buy than this. However
this is great stuff. add to cart!

Don't you remember the first time you showed people your one hand cut that you can now preform in
your sleep and with either hand? Well this flourish blows the cut out of the water. I really really
like this flourish a lot. Some people said that you need big hands to do it well, that's not true,
if you have REALLY REALLY small hands just use a bridge deck. Does it take a lot of practice? Of
course, probably the hardest one handed flourish I know. But isn't that what you want? To be able to
do something that takes a long time to get down so that if you ever meet another magician he can't
show you up by mastering your trick in 10 min. It amazes people. Highly recomended for all the card
magicians out there!

I have been trying to perfect this move for a while; I can do sort a half-assed version using
gravity from watching Rene Lavand tapes and having read the instructions in Card College, but I
wanted to fine-tune it. All this tape is is the guy doing the move and telling you what he's doing.
You can get the same thing by watching Rene Lavand tapes or any of the free downloads on the web.
He does not suggest ways to strengthen your hand or avoid mistakes. You're better off getting Erik
Ostresh's one-handed deal video that teaches you more abouut this flourish and also gives you a
pretty good trick.
If you are into 1 handed cuts, flourishing or just even general card handling, you will love this
move. It makes you look like a pro at the table and people will gaze in astonishment. Remember, this
is a move which does require a good amount of skill so you will need to practice this one.

Overall I like this flourish and it makes you look like a pro, but it takes alot of practice to get
down. I don't recommend this if you have small hands.
This really makes you look like a pro. Took me a couple days of practicing though (until I got a
Bicycle deck, which is pretty much a MUST for this shuffle).
Nice effect, but hard for those that have small hands.
Whenever I really want to show my spectators that I am really good with a deck of cards, I always
show them this flourish. You will look like an expert when you perfect the move, download now!
