This is Sebastian’s favourite method for making a 360 degree one hand revolution cut, he’s got his inspiration from Jonas Haglund’s OH360R an i guess Brian Tudor’s (Yeah, i know he didn’t invent it…)

Anyway, here is the video, exclusive for TheCuso.info in top noch quality.

Thanks for sharing Seb, i’m practicing this right now.

Hi guys,

I guess most of you have noticed the Interviews tab on the top navbar of the blog, or at least have seen a couple of them either here or at my youtube channel.

I started this initiative because I thought our art lacked personality, i mean, we knew each other for our avatar and signatures in the forums and our perfect manicure (which i didn’t ever have) from the videos.

First I thought of trying to interview the big names only so that we could demistify themselves and put them closer to us poor average card guys, but then, after a while i thought it would be interesting to interview anyone that was in the “spotlight” or had anything interesting to say about our art.

The easier method i though of was sending them some questions in a text file that they should answer whenever they had some spare time.

This way i got a few interesting ones but then i got to ask my friend Jordan Lapping and he came up with the idea of doing the interview in front of his webcam, thus making it even more personal and impromptu.

I loved it and then I started asking many people to do that for the community.

The responses were priceless, and this was what made this blog be what it is now, so I feel like I have to thank you for building up this whole thing with your videos, articles, card gossip and constructive comments.

There are some great interviews for you to watch if you didn’t already and some other scheduled for the future, here is the list of the names that we’ve got so far so select one, sit back and enjoy and after that mind leaving a comment or asking them a question.

There are some great interviews coming up like Kevin Ho’s,that he might film this weekend, Cardshark88’s (co-founder of The3C and youtube top subscribed card guru), Justflourish staff (Sebastian, Tical…), Luka, Brendan Conner, Justin Kelly, Scenacle french guys, Scott and Sean, Allan Hagen, Ling and many more.

So i would like to hear from you about what do you think about this whole initiative and how could it be improved, who would you like to be interviewed in the future or what other ideas do you have to bring the artist closer.

Leave a comment and chose your favourite interview.

Ok, finaly i decided to release this move to the public.

I think it’s my best creation and though it might seem an easy and stupid cut it has a lot of potential.

Nebula is an utility move that it’s meant to be incorporated into more complex and elaborated flourishes.

As an elegant alternative to the swing cut it can also be used to divide the deck in two halves in the middle of your favourite one handed cuts routine.

I like to use it before making a smear fan in the right hand and a carnahan in the left to show a circle.

I know many people (includding my friends Jonas Haglund, Huron Low, TicaL and others) are using this move and have came up with fantastic variations and combos that might eventually be made public for you.

I had a hard time deciding if i should release this move or keep it for me and my friends but you know how i am and how i think, and for those of you that dont i’ll tell you…

I think this move has a lot of potential as i said so keeping it wouldn’t make our art progress in any way.

So here is my little gift for you to experiment.

I would like to see hundreds of video responses with your ideas upon this concept and of course i would like you to TAKE YOUR TIME to comment on what do you think about the move (what is nice and what is not…) so please stay away from saying: “nice”, “wow”, “great stuff” “thanks” “keep it up” kind of comments, PLEASE! :P

I want to thank everyone that watches my stuff, all my subscribers at youtube and specially in my blog (those of you that take me seriously :P), all my flourishing friends and the video editor who asked me to keep his name private.

Thanks a lot once again and enjoy!

This is an old video, made in Late 2005 - Early 2006 by my friend Scott, the brother of Sean. Yeah, Scott and Sean.
However, this is just Scott’s entry to a contest on 21Ace, which he won, becoming “a Card Trick Champion”. How weird that sounds lol.

Credits to Andrei Jikh, Bone ho, Dan and Dave, Jonas Haglund, Sean, De’vo and Jerry Cestkowski.

Enjoy, you better do.

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).

-Andrei Jikh

“Here’s a single card-move of mine, the name is taken from the anime “Naruto”, enjoy.”
-Jonas

“Here’s a small one-card production of mine, it sort of resembles Piet Fortons popout a bit, only it’s meant for in the hands-work.”
- Jonas Haglund

“My tutorials were taken down, here’s a new chance for you to learn from them. More to come soon, when you least expect it.”

-Jonas Haglund
