Where to Buy Some New Fans

[penguincdude]

I've been watching some of the videos posted recently and am trying to find out where they learn all of their fans.

The only fans I know are one-handed and thumb fan.

I was wondering where I could find some really good fans like the huge ones with two stacks?

And thoughts would be great.

XB Vol. 1 has some fans. (I think vol. 2 also has some cool fans as well, but I don't have Vol. 2.)

I'm also pretty sure the Encyclopedia of Card Flourishes also has a bunch.

The Trilogy also has one. (Also sold in the 1 on 1 section.) Hope that helps.

That would be cool, if they had a dvd that was all about fans and taught like about 6-7 of them in detail, I'd totally buy that.

I'm also tired of only doing thumb fan and one handed fan

If my memory serves me right, the Trilogy also offers a pressure fan in the Everything Else sector, and another flourish which uses the same principle. I cannot remember the name clearly, but I think it's something around the lines of Under Pressure.

XB1 teaches one handed fan, thumb fan, pressure fan, giant fan, XB2 teaches Ciappi palm back fans. They are really good for learning these fans.

I still can't figure out the pressure fan though... any tips anybody?

Honestly, "keep practicing", in most occasions, is very unhelpful advice. For pressure fans though, it really is the only thing people can offer unless you're doing something badly wrong with grip or technique - otherwise, it's just a "feel" for the fan, which you'll only gain from a lot of practice, it took me months and my fans are still far from perfect.

The trilogy has some good fans, like the pressure fan and under pressure, and cradle to grave has the flipback fan.
