The LePaul S-Spread

That's how I do it, and I found that you really don't have to crush the deck too hard in your palm.
You need lots of practice to make it look good. Dan(or Dave) stated that it was pretty simple... WELL SIMPLE FOR THEM!! It even took Jordan Lapping 9 months to get it look good as now(well thats what I heard)
Has only taken me a week or two and mines pretty decent, sometimes it's hit and miss, but I'm not saying its perfect
I've gotten mine pretty decent now, the cards are fairly even and the length is alright, but the "s" isn't too defined....and I'm springing from my right hand
I've been working at the move about 11 or so months now, and I am still not 100% satisfied. It's a bitchy thing to get down to how you want it, but then again- so is everything else.
Everyone is different,

thx jordan for all the help i am still having trouble i can get the shape but i can't support all teh cards i keep dropping them
Make sure your left thumb moves over to hold the cards, I know it gets in the way when trying to spread, I had the same problem, it just takes practice and it kinda clicks eventually. Keep it up
SO i pretty much suck at the Lepaul spread, but i'm not too worried because it totally effs up your cards to hell
In my opinion it does no more damage then a spring or dribble. Its one of the best ways to break your cards in and looks amazing
I think you have a slightly wrong attitude here. If you actually worked on these things you will quickly find that they do little of the kind. For sure, it will take a few meshed decks before you feel satisfied, but in general they will do no more damage than a Pressure Fan would. The more you work at the LePaul Spread, the less pressure you will need to spring the cards.
In essence: The more you practice, the less it "effs up your cards to hell".
The same story goes for other moves such as Springs, Pressure Fans, and Under Pressure, etc. -- it's just a matter of working on it and having the correct mindset.

Agreed, I've seen my decks last longer as I've become better at these certain moves.
