Hello fellow theory 11-ers, I'm 16 and I've been doing magic since I was 12 but recently I have taken up the art of cardistry. So far I'm finding it pretty difficult because sometimes I think my hand is too small. Just for ships and giggles, how big is your hand? And how does one measure the size of their hand? Below is how I measured my hand and the size.
My hand is 6.8 inches from the bottom of my palm to the tip of my middle finger using a ruler.
I think i know whats is the problem.
from my wrist line to tip of the middle finger is 18cm.
There are only 2 things you are lacking of.
1. Practice
2. Time
Flourish require many hours of doing it over and over again till your finger adapt to the motion and also muscle memory. i still remembering when i was practicing kryptonite by dan and dave i could not stretch far enough for the packet to fall. Give it some time and practice.
Same for palming. When i straighten all my fingers in between of my fingers there has a gap. Skinny hands i would say. people can see the palm card. But with practice, misdirection and confidence. I am able to do a palm on the fly in my performance.
To wrap up.
Give it some time and practice.
Hope that helps.
