This is really … wow. I find that I have no problem with the Charlier cut, and I use it in many a routine with flipbacks and other one handed stuff. The Curly Q, that's a different story. I can't see how you can master the hardest of moves, but The Charlier give you problems? Maybe if you move the deck closer to your fingertips, the Charlier would be easier. ANYWAY, congrats on the Curly Q, I can't do it for sure. Everyone's putting in their 2 cents, but I spent all my cents on magic tricks. SORRY!! Anyhow, the vertical spring LOOKS difficult, but I find it pretty easy. King Cobra is really testing my limits right now. LOL. I hope my hand survives it. As for the one handed spring ... nope, “not even close to learning it. Soooo hard.”

I never seem to tire reading about this age-old debate because it just goes on and on and on. What is most amusing to me is how people just don't accept that there are different schools of thought. Remember in SHAKES THE CLOWN how all the clowns hated mimes and they would beat on them every time they had the chance? That reminds me a lot of threads like this. Thanks for the entertainment fellers.

Oh, in my humble opinion, sybil is in no way as integral to magic as the DL. That's like saying CG effects are integral to good movies. When was the last time you NEEDED to do a sybil cut to achieve a magical effect?

The hardest flourish? The one-foot riffle shuffle, especially with a sweaty foot and a sticky deck of Hoyles.

LOL. I bet De'vo can do SYBIL with his feet and a sticky Hoyle deck! (As well as foot cobra.)

Yeah, right.



I stick with those 2 too.

Bone.



LOL, how about stick the card or the deck on your tongue and shake it. It's something called LAMBADA. LOL.

Bone.

LOL BONE!! I have a friend who does a trick where a card is selected and kissed by a woman. (Big lipstick mark…) Then he has someone onstage, and they have to stick their tongue out. He fans the cards and rubs them against the volunteer's tongue, and asks them to remember it. (LOL) He then sticks the pack in their mouth, and hits it with a WHIP!!! (An actual whip, very, very scary.) All the cards fly everywhere except for one left on your tongue... the selected card. It sounds like just your kind of trick bone!! LOL
As for the topic, the double crossed fire, upside-down wind king cobra packet switch would be the hardest thing EVER!!!!!

I have been working at a bar that has a flair bartender. (He juggles the bottles while making the drinks.) So I took a move done with a bottle, and started doing it with cards. (Out of the box, No rubber band... completely free.) Toss the cards around your back, over your shoulder as the cards comes over you catch them on the same hand that tossed them (on the back of the hand.) Then pop them up, turn your hand over and catch them on the same arm but on the forearm. After this pop them forward turning them over into your hand now waiting face up. This will take you a few times to get. Any questions PM and I'll answer them.

Thanks for listening

Flair bartending has always impressed me.

I like when they throw a bottle behind their back and catch it on another bottle! Anyway, I've been playing around with tossing the cards behind my back and catching them. (I've got the toss down, but I can only catch them about 3/4 times.)

Hey Jordini,

If you talk to me I can walk you thru the hard part. It is all in how you hold the cards. Send me a PM. The catch on the back of the hand is hard if they are not flat to start with. After that the rest is just a knack.

Good Luck guys.

Please don't pull out your hair.

That's called "flipback juggling" and has been done a lot by the handlordz guys.

Oh....On the back of the hand? I wasn't even thinking about that. I mean just catching them normally. WOW I should try to catch them on the back of my hand. That would be awesome!! I'm gonna go try that now!
