@RealityOne is right you should always start off with simple card's but when and if you want to move on , well then get something you like in texture, feel & so on ............. @kolebear On the card's you suggested I've handled White lions once , & I really liked it plus I felt their amazing...

Oh yea the NYSM2 one's like the one's where they steal the chip ... those were monarch's ??? wow didn't notice .

Yea that's true it's a great book @RealityOne referred it to me and I got my copy its got a lot of content ......... With it you can learn tricks for kid's and adult's too.

Yea he's right there everyone's got different style's so its all you but you can look to methods and modify it ........

Oh the elevator cut is right here at Theory 11 , As for speed ....... start super slow and then speed up each time. Well you cant progress like in magic , cardistry takes time and dedication first you'll wanna stop, but keep trying and then you'll see yourself becoming faster and smoother ...

Hi , Yea your gonna have to see to understand , but I feel the underhand throw ( like the one in-Now You See Me ) or the normal over shoulder are the best two and the easiest but your gonna have to know how to hold it for both and i don't really have a way to show you here right now so your...

Hi , Well if you're just starting, take it from me, learn the basics cause once you reach certain flourishes they require a bunch of basics to go about it so I suggest you learn those first. If you know them and want moves learn stuff like Sybil cut , Werm , Elevator cut and so on ....... start...

Hey , Honestly what motivates me is that it practically is art and well once you learn different flourishes, it not only pleases you but its a pretty satisfying feeling to watch too .......

Hi , It was never smooth for me either when i first started ... you wanna practice stretching your finger's cause the higher or wider you can extend each cut , then easier & smoother the flourish -

The Monument collection is simply amazing, and hard ... but put in the time and effort and those are quite a few amazing flourishes. Monument is a bunch tied together I'm not so sure about single one's, haven't really looked into any ......

Well I'm not from around where you are :3 but well seeing from experience i have had Tally Ho's and they are pretty smooth and last for quite a while ........ and as for cardistry I started with Tally Ho's too.

Well which ever seem's to teach you more you should go for ! and again that's how you see it .....

Yea i guess i should get on with it yea !! its gonna take a while but Thanks @Brett Hurley

Yea from what I've read here and out ... Scissor is one to start with but it takes practice i'm still trying .

That actually makes sense ! but would that be applicable for simple cuts alone ???

Hey, A slight amount of pressure is added so this will flatten a bent card or a half folded one but I cant say about the gimmick-ed cards but yea it'll work for the bent one's for sure. Even then the cards will show very slight signs of having been bent or folded , totally your call but around...

Yes that's also right but then again there's nothing we can do, if in a flourish we need a scissor cut or any other single handed one's. So yea true we can focus on the one's without much stretching but its better to come up with comfortable method's cause otherwise we missing out on a lot of...

Thanks and yea precisely the one handed cuts needed make the whole thing seem hard .......

Hey @Fox13 , Thanks so much , yea reading what you've said it seems to make sense, I guess I've just got to find out what movements or hand positioning is comfortable for me when it comes to doing flourishes. Thanks again for the list's of basic's all that's left now is to get to learning ...

Hi , I've been doing flourishes for a while now and I have learnt a few such as the Sybil cut, Raptor, Werm , Waterfall (Cascade), and a few other simple one's but I began my Cardistry days with the Sybil cut and never picked up the very basic one's and so now when I try to learn new ones I see...
