well since i have a background in card manipulation....i started out with gambling sleights (bottoms, seconds, centers, culls, stacks, counts etc.)and hustles and later moved onto card magic and then card manipulation. was just wondering if anyone here has ever had any interest in that kinda stuff.
old vid of mine from way back.

1:00 - 1:15 was clearly a double lift, the basics of card magic
But the rest was amazing, lol
I used to do some card magic (mind you, I don't remember shit about it anymore), but I could never do that flourish stuff where you do that crazy stuff with your hands and move the cards around like that. It looked damn cool when you did it in the beginning !
Hmm makes me wanna go back to that stuff again and learn how to flourish...
shrug
Awesome video

I dabbled in card throwing to attempt to cut things or hit objects but never really got the nac for it. Sleights of hand I'd love to learn but it isn't really a trade most people say they profess in, if you catch my drift. Love to learn if you know where I could. Or hell, make some videos!

I started practicing card flourishes and some magic a couple of weeks ago. I can do some decent cuts and stuff but it's so different from flipping. I like it though and I enjoy the hoarding feeling of collecting different decks.

I like seeing different ones. Can't say I buy them though. I actually find it very interesting how many "racy" card decks their are. So many have very nice, often intricate and detailed, art work. If you have some cool decks post pics!

Currently using this deck although I do have more decks unopened.
