Check out youtube to see what the sybil actually looks like. Im very sure you have seen it somewhere before, because it is the basis for alot of flourishes.

Chris Kenner published two flourish cuts in Totally Out of Control. The Sybil doesn't really bear much resemblence to recent moves with "Sybil" in the name, looking more like Dan and Dave's Genesis or the end of Brian Tudor's Castro Cut. The other one, Five Faces of Sybil, is the one that looks more like the current Sybil stuff, and is a lot like an extended version of Gianni Mattiolo's Ultimate Illogical Shuffle, published in Apocalypse.

If you knew the story of Sybil,It was a women named Shirley Ardell Mason, who had 16 different personalities. Which is where I believe the different cut's come into play.... hence the name 5 faces of Sybil.

That's my view of where the name came from!

The cut's were the first of it's kind.. and the whole flourishing community has a lot of thanks to give to Kenner... Thank you!:)

It's the basis for most two-handed-cut flourishes. Type Sybil in youtube, and you'll see it.

There's so many other two-handed cuts out that that don't use the sybil concept.

You guys have to open your eyes a bit more.
