Allright all you diehard handlordz out there. Everyone of us has had this problem at some point or another. You practice untill your hands bleed, then you practice some more. When your hands get dry what do you use to revitalize your hands, or do you all prefer XCM with dy hands? Any working pros in the flourish movement I am very interested in how you prepare your hands before a show.

Funny you should say that. the deck I'm handling right now actually has blood on it. (from my hands)

I use some finger fittnes moves by Greg Irwin (spelling) before I perform. To keep my hands from getting dry and to prevent sweath I run cold water over my hands fora little while. Some times I also use a TINY bit of hand lotion.

Hope it helped. You can also view the "hand health" part of the HL forum for more details.

First of all, I must say I am not a card worker, but a coin worker.

I can recommend however that Aloe Vera extract works great for me...and when I do those few card effects I do know, the Aloe Vera helps.

Oh god, if your fingers bleed, STOP!

MOHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

don't worry, the cut (LOL) came from som kitchen knife manip ... LOL

"Now kids remember, TRY THIS AT HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!! Kitchen Knife Manipulation Is EXTREAMLY SAFE!!! So go grab your mom's sharpest knife and get Choppin!"

Lol. when you put it that way, it's no longer any fun.

Hehe... if you start bleedin, then maybe you should stick to FANS instead of CUTS.

Just don't stick any body parts in the ceiling FAN!!!
