Max Vlassenko – Live Xtreme Card Manipulation on TV
Posted on: July 15, 2009
Max Vlassenko is last year’s Xtreme Card Manipulation World Champion and one of our favourite HLers. His card skills are way above most of the guys in the business. Here are some of his real world accomplishments with the art.

I actually think he is really pretty charsimatic on these shows. 3 thumbs up MAX!

I don’t like his style…

Max is certainly a bad ass! I love how Dina Pugliese (on the latest Breakfast Television clip) lights up when Max says “It’s a new hand sport!”
Awesome! Good work Max.

Anything that is done to show the world the excioting art of card manipulation is good.
Mr. Tyler, one question…how did you do in the World Championships?

Brilliant publicity, and you performed and demonstrated so well. 5/5 for just not dropping a single time :-)
Keep it up Max, and keep advertising our passion!

I could be wrong but I can think of nobody that is out there performing XCM for laymen, as much as Max right now! he’s getting booked for gigs , on TV shows, etc etc and he’s not even 18 I think! I agree with Jaspas that max doesn’t look uncomfortable or dorky at all, he’s standing tall, facing the camera, smiling and chattin up the hot chick hosts… pimpin ain’t easy!

I agree, I don’t rly like his style… it seems awkward when he’s doing some moves. But yeah, being on BT is a great way to spread the art. yay!
The only thing is, im not sure how many adults watching the program would be rly too interested…

@Aristote- By world champion he means the Handlordz world xcm tournament champion

that takes balls. Congrats Max

@Jamal, that really doesn’t mean much when the best guys aren’t allowed to enter it on account of them being ‘haters.’
Anyone can make themselves sound good by saying something like that. “I’m the world champion” sounds promising to the show host I’m sure, but it’s meaning is shattered when those who know how overblown that title is hear it.
Considering how few people do this art, how tiny a portion of the miniscule fraction reside at handlordz, and what a fraction of THOSE actually participate in the tournament, the title “world champion” is pretty meaningless.

Max is fucken skilled. Awesome publicity. Just get the fuck out of gaylordz.

@Sean- All your best guys were once HLers and they entered the tournament in the past. They got there ass kicked lol. Besides most of the other “best” that weren’t Hlers would probably lose in the “no cuts” round lol

When you star watching a tv show, you can’t help falling in love with some characters and their stories, even if they’re stupid.
