well, popchris3....it is hard to explain this thing to you because you obviously are not getting the point.
Your "Fluid" is not original at all, not because nowadays not a single flourish is original...but because you´ve simply combined two flourishy moves into one. A pivot kind of thing and a fan toss....well.....the exact same fan toss motions have already been done in lets say Mary Jane or...some of Daniel Madisons takes.
And the Pivot you use is really not that big of a deal.
I get it, it isn't orignal.
On the one hand ...the fact that you think that every single flourish is base on a sybil or some sort of pivot..shows how limited your knowledge in cardhandling and flourishing still is.
Uh, yeah. My knowledge is going to be limited, because I don't have too much time to practice flourishing and have only been in it for almost four months, maybe less. I know as much as I can at this point, and am still learning.

where are those sybils and pivots inside of this move?
That is a really neat move. But, there are ways one can tie that to several ancient and recent card handling techniques and I am sure Kevin Ho was not the first person to pull cards off of another packet.
or in the most amount of moves in this video:

Those were cool but not unlike the video above.
?
The Fact that you don´t know what else a human being can do with cards besides armspreads, sybil variations and packet flips, shows that there is still loads of knowledge waiting for you to be discovered.....
Uh, yeah. Hence the term, amatuer.
Exactly that point, that you think everybody is doing the same ****ty sybil thing should be the starting point for you to create tons of new material nobody has every dreamed of before...and not saying "ok everybody is doing the sybils and packet flips so....everybody should be ok with it if do the same"
Unique-"ness" is kind of important body.
What part of biggener do you not understand??? And this flourish was something that I thought I should share with people, because it really helped me when I was just starting out (by that I mean about a week in.)
And I never said everything is ok to be the same. Not even close. I said that it is my belief that not many flourishes are original. All moves were invented earlier and are just used in different combinations now. Even the Kevin Ho thing, as I stated I am sure he is not the first to pull a card off a packet with his thumb.
And I strive to have things that no one else does, and I am sure that no one else right now does that EXACTLY like I do it.
keep it up
I will, and thank you for your feedback. I wanted people to see the flourish and I thought the performances were really good. Plus it will help a lot of people just starting off, as it is pretty easy to do.
