    I am 5’0” female and have tiny hands. Man I was practing for days and all my cards kept falling over my middle finger. Finally I started practicing only the spin with half the deck (took the other half out of my palm so I didn’t have to even worry about it) doing this made me realize I need to use my pinky. Surprisingly he doesn’t mention the pinky at all but it is imperative to also use your pinky at the end of the rotation, especially when the index is curled under. Watching his video without sound made me realize the pinky plays a big part. Thanks for the videos. Easy to do with the right practice!

    These are the best tutorials I've found for cardistry. Straight to the point, camera showing the hands. Theres a few dudes with cardistry "tutorial" videos that dont explain shit or show their hands well at all, and if they do, it's too fast and not a good angle. Like those guys faces and whole upper torsos from the hips up are in the shot... for what reason, idk. They dont explain the tricks well whatsoever. It's as if those dudes just like to see and hear themselves talking. I believe the few other dudes I'm referencing are also magicians, and they treat the tutorials as if they're magic tricks not wanting to give away "the secret". They sure as hell dont get straight to the point if they get to it at all. So I want to thank you for being straight to the point. Thank you for teaching the trick & explaining the trick in a clear and understandable manner. Thank you for showing your hands clearly and up close. I'm not sure how hard it was to do all of that, but this channel seems to but the only one teaching in a proper manner!

    Been watching few other tutorials of revolution cut..and for someone with small hands this version is definitely the easiest one. It's easiest be cause when you start to rotate the pack you place your ring finger close to thumb but OUTSIDE of the pack in your palm. This allows to grab rotating pack with ring finger with ease, while in other tutorials everyone was showing to place ring finger across the pack in palm. Thanks alot, bud.

    I would like to add a tip that if you have trouble clearing the corner of the top stack after 180 degrees, it helps to just cut fewer cards away on the top half. Not too few that the cards bend when you do the turn or they're too light and end up slipping from your fingers.

    Thanks but I'm a female in my mid-twenties & my hands are so laughably small & dainty that they're child-like so I can't really wait for my hands to grow bigger. This was definitely one of the better tutorials out there but what I've learned is that if you have small hands especially as a young woman, since small-handed men still have an advantage over me, the only thing that can done to actually yield any successful results is to watch several different tutorials & methods & later modify the grips & angles entirely to make it work for you so it is true that having small hands doesn't mean that cardistry is impossible, although so many people believe that it is & they give up way too soon but it does mean that you have to work twice as hard & twice as long to find solutions that work so I do think dedication & commitment are a big part of it.

    So step one is straddle grip, second step letting half of the deck drop, third step is to reposition the index finger to the side, the fourth step is turning the deck until you have the v space for the ring finger, the problem is that when I turn the deck, I don't get this V space for the ring finger

    This was just one of the things he added for convenience. From a person with small hands, I suggest that move that you were talking about. It makes it much easier. And when your cards slip its suggested that you put a little more grip on your cards but just enough to allow flow. And yes this will take a lot of time to do
