i know that, as i said before it looks great, it doesn't matter if it's original, but if he was wondering i would not be able to help him. i hope that clears some stuff up.
Alright ... well i dont know for sure, but it does look like something ive seen before, where you hold on to the top card(s) and you do a pass underneath them. i forget what kid of pass this is. but correct me if i'm wrong... because it looks very similar to the method i just explained. if im totally wrong, then im sorry.
