The recap was just plain painful. Way too much talking for not enough effect.
I've seen Patrick Snowden do 5 Speed without a gimmicked card, only he called it something else and may have learned it from a different source than Kenner's version. Snowden's version allows him to take the '5' cards from the deck and never have to pick it up again. I'll give you time to ponder how that may be possible. Otherwise the structure of the routine is the same.
Keep working on it, smooth it out a bit more. I think you should really focus on uniformity of motion, as you tend to speed up and slow down a lot.
