Andrei’s Two

Posted on: April 6, 2008


Here are just two little moves from me, a special thanks to Chris Kenner and Jonas Haglund. (originally “XXX”… presently “XX” with a slightly smoother closer).

    Hmm, though I haven’t seen the first move before, i dont quite like it as much as the second move. The only thing i dont like about the xtended-looking move is the closer. I think you should either do it slower, because it looks a little choppy done fast, or find a different way to close it. Great work though, keep em coming :)

  5. Andrei Says:

    Yep the closer is smoother than it is in this video and I realize that. Thanks :)

  7. Scott Says:

    Damn, Andrei, Your just Insane. Easily one of the best flourishers ever, I love the way you think man.

    Im pumped now, where are my cards!

  8. Andrei Says:

    Thanks guys glad you liked it, I didn’t think this video would get that many views but Cuso found it on Vimeo and asked to blog it.

    Scott thanks bro, like I said before, you and Sean are one of those few people that make me keep going. You guys are like my steroids haha.

    Now where are my steroids? (j/k)

  9. Andrei Says:

    PS: Tical you’re one of my steroids too so keep being that crazy pill! haha

  10. TheCuso Says:

    nonono, tical is MY steroid…

  11. TicaL Says:

    lol the first thing I will do now – is looking in a damn dictionary for the word “steroid” xD

  12. TicaL Says:

    woot – still don’t get it…I’m like “anabolic steroids” for you guys…yesterday there was something in the Tv about guys taking anabolic – one the side effects is being very aggressiv…I’m not like that – I’m more smooth like w33d u know =P you know what cuso u are like cold coffee for me – bring out some nuh stuff and get ya ass up – look at Andrei this dude is getting crazy, he takes steriods lol
    if this not the longest post in ‘ur damn blog I dunno what I’m doin’ here…
    hasta luego

  13. Sean Says:

    Andrei! Seriously man, I knew you had cutting-skillz, but I did NOT epect that!! This video, as well as jsut being plain awesome, shows your diversity and creativity, and u never cease to amaze me!

    One thing’s for sure man, cardistry/xcm/flourishing/ whatever u call it… u make it look GOOD.

    Thank you! ur an inspiration.

  14. Sean Says:

    Oh, and although i really appreciate the compliment…

    Dont do drugs. =P x

  15. TheCuso Says:

    cold coffe eh… ok ok…

  16. trash Says:

    steroids also shrinks your balls and can give you man-titties if you go off them!

    man-titties aside, I liekd this video, although the first one could have been better (rahter than just dragging one card around a bunch of times, maybe use that as one small part of a larger combo?)

    but the “sin city” effect actually looked pretty cool in this and the second cut was done nicely, i agree with enigma maybe a little smoother would have been better.

    I kind of want to see you do the “insantity ladder display” in another video but continously so I can see how its made! lol

    thanks cuso for culling all these videos for us.
