Well, I have been doing Cyclone by Chris Ramsay for months now.
But for some reason I have two problems that just don't seem to leave me:-
1) The card does not move in a neat arc to my right (I do it with my left hand).
2) The card does not move in a horizontal plane. Sometimes, it becomes vertical, like a few of those thumb propulsion moves out there.
Also, the problem which inspired the title...well, I use "100% pure plastic playing cards" (as is written on the tuck case)...why?
I dunno.
So, when I do the actual shooting out thing...the edge of the card injures the skin under my middle finger nail. Not SO SEVERELY that it starts bleeding, but if the skin is dry then, sometimes it really hurts.
Am I applying too much pressure even when I shouldn't? Or is it part and parcel of the move?
But the sad thing is, I can't change the deck.
However, tell me to change my finger movements or placements, I am game.
So, help on the three mentioned problems please? Maybe all of them are connected?
I love how the move looks and inspite of all the problems, when I do nail it, it looks srsly cool. So I'd love to solve my problems so as to look cool every single time.
Help?
