Hello everyone,
I was just wondering, I've read multiple texts on the zarrow shuffle, and practice as I have, I can't find a way to make it look natural... Does anyone have a clip of themselves or someone else doing it without"stuffing the turkey" as it were? I would love to get a visual reference without the spreading of the right hands cards prior to the pushin. Thanks. Dan |

Here's Herb Zarrow doing it.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_m-MTqDZAQ Gary Plants does it better, in my opinion. You literally can't distinguish it from his actual shuffle. Ask for a demo if you run into him. |

Have you read the chapter in Herb Zarrow: A life of magic? That really helped me when learning the shuffle. It goes into much more depth than any other description I have seen.

Another vote for Gary Plants book,as stated above,telling the real and the Zarrow apart in his hands is near on impossible,surely the aim for us all whatever our skill level.Great book.

I got a lot from the Fast Company DVD set then attended one of Jason England's lectures which paid huge dividends as well!

Dominique Duvivier has an interesting handling of the Zarrow Shuffle that looks nice. It's on the second volume of The Magic Of Dominique Duvivier video.

I heard from a friend that anecdotal evidence is actually quite reliable. |

If any one can put the video of Mike Vincent's first appearence on Penn and Teller Fool Us at the end in his Finale he does a nice Zarrow, I say nice , you see it, and know its being done , but look at the misdirection , looking straight at the audience and paying no attention to the Shuflle, its wonderful.
