Akhil Raj, Deadly Apples, Maaz Hasan, ChrisJGJ - Thank you all for your input! I've come to the realisation that I simply need to slow it down a little and properly analyse my movements and grasp the fundamentals properly so that I am consistent with them. I'm also the sort of person that...

Thanks for the welcome! I see what you mean but I've not explained myself very well sorry. When I say getting the injogged card flush, what I mean is to get it flush at both the left and right side, I find it can hit the palm of my left hand or the pad of my thumb and therefore end up falling...

Damn it! I've just re-read what I wrote. She's bought me Vol. 2 for Christmas. The decks I have built up myself over the last couple of months haha! Nonetheless she's still not too bad ha!

Haha she's not bad I guess! Yeah I think that's a good idea to slow it down and look at how I'm currently doing it and see if anything obvious sticks out that I can adjust or correct and fingers crossed eventually grasp it! Thanks to all for the help and support so far :) Josh

Really appreciate the response! Yeah I think one thing I need to do is go back over the mechanics of the grip and shuffle to see where I'm going wrong! I know what you mean but I'm determined to get better and master it as I want to be competent with a deck of cards as a hobbyist ha! From what...

Thanks for the response! Yeah I did think whether that might just be the case! It just gets a little frustrating when you try over and over again and feel like you're getting nowhere ha!

Firstly Hello to all from sunny Manchester in the UK haha! Quick bit of background - I've always loved magic for as long as I can remember (27yo) and especially card magic due to the skill and talent involved within it. Very recently I've decided to properly take up card magic as a hobbyist...
