Nick Ahn – Dream Circuit Tutorial
Posted on: October 12, 2009
Hey guys. I think it’s time for a video.
Here’s a tutorial for an OLD cut of mine. I’ve kept this tutorial to myself for almost a year but feel that it’s final time to release it. This is the second of three versions of this cut. (The first was known as Scylla and Charybdis and will probably never be shown for it is sub-par to every other flourish and the third can be seen in the video “Vogue Rogues”)
Looking back on it now, I see the teaching wasn’t the best and the lighting conditions also hindered the learning process. I do apologize and hope you guys can let me off on that for this video is very old.
I feel this cut is unique in it’s own sense and can open ideas and variations for you guys. So, what that said, I hope you enjoy. Feedback much appreciated.
Nick

Aah it confused me a lot! But it looks cool! Though it is a bit odd and inefficiant.

I mean having only part of the deck as being inefficient.

i agree with you, i mean its real nice. but having the other 32-37 cards in your pocket is kinda weird…

Wow. Didn’t even notice you blogged this. Thanks!
As for the comments. I understand your view of just using a small packet rather than the whole deck. But, it’s nearly impossible to perform this flourish with a full deck (you’ll see why if you try). With that said, it’s a FLOURISH. I think it’s perfectly OK to just use a packet. Thanks for the comments anyways. =)

Hey say someone like me just started card flourishes and stuff a couple months ago what moves would you suggest I learn first, I only know a few tricks like hot stones, anaconda, flicker, and how to do a thumb fan and one handed fan, and a pretty sweet spring if i do say so myself lol. well anyways any help would be appreciated.
