My appearance on a talent show in Spain called “Tú Sí Que Vales”. This is just an excerpt but you get the point.
It was my first time on stage and also doing an uncut routine for such a big audience. My stuff is more close up but I did it and they liked it so that’s what matters.
I encourage you guys to step outside of your bedrooms and start doing magic and card flourishes for laymen.

Wow not bad, you did very good actually in my view!
I only started out recently and i guess if i had to perform infront of such a big audience i´d be too nervous. Dropping all cards. So well done!

Thanks for making that first step! I believe that more flourishers will step out of their comfort circle and perform for laymen in the public. It just takes one to make a difference, and show others that flourishing is capable of handling a stage show. Respect!

Not sure if everyone can understand the judges, I speak a little spanish so I will translate:
I have not seen someone that can do this with playing cards! How did they fly from one hand to the other…
Yes, they look very strong, and sexy too! I want them to caress my body
I would also like some of my body to be caressed, 4 stars
