You do have a great concept here to build from. It does look rather flourishy though. If you could make the movements more natural and less presentational it would look a little more magical. If you smoothe this out and suppliment the moves with some patter I have a feeling you could come up with a pretty good routine.
Cheers!
Well, while a completely one-handed ambitious would be cool - good luck with the (TRUE) one-handed pass - from a spectator's point of view it really was one handed. You put the card in the deck with one hand, most people wouldn't expect anything to happen until after that. A spectator wouldn't have even SEEN the first pass, so they would just think you were closing up the spread.
The first pass was nice, but the second had way too much movement. I liked the diving board double though, I could never master it myself.
I thought it was a cool idea but poor in the execution, the double riffles were obviously exposed (switch to pinky count or hold a fleshy thumb break or something!) and the whole thing looked kind of awkward, and you used two hands ... I gave it a 3/5.
Thank you guys for your comments.. i posted this video and tornado ace production video about
2 month ago and i was surprised when i saw this video here now.. about one and two handed,, i just name this routine "one handed ambitious".. i know i use two hands in a beginning and in the end.. so if anyone was dissapointed i will say sorry:) but i I appreciate your honest comments

To start off one handed, you can hold deck in straddle/mechanics grip, riffle the corner downward with your left thumb, stop when they say stop, do a charlie cut to that spot, then you can pinky count to do yout triples/doubles.
The lifts were executed very nicely. Only thing is that try to do everything one handed if you are going to name it one handed. The change was a little too much of a motion like ineski said. Keep it up the good work. Nice pass too!
But... You used both hands?
Don't move your hand up when you do the flippant change. Just drop it down and it will look a lot more magical. Also when you do the pass try to resist the big up and down movement.
Other than that it was good and the multiple lifts were handled nicely.
Keep it up.
