Sleight of Hand 101 | The Swivel Cut Flourish (Beginner)

[@aidenfox4005]

This channel was what allowed me to really get into and practice magic. Three years later I am still working on some of the basics on this channel. Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity and paving the way for magic in my life.

[@b_ouncedatazz]

I just learned this and all I need now is to get fast at it

[@XeusanoO]

i will definitely sub cuz ur awesome :D tricks that i've learned from you 1.double lift 2.the werm 3.jumping gemini you earned my respect :D

[@MatchuFtw]

That's awesome! I'm glad I could help man!

[@kurimuzon9535]

I was lectured through a video on performing the Sybil cut even though I was a beginner in handling cards and I eventually perfected the Sybil cut in 2 days and perform the trick even in my sleep

[@Wildberries13]

Ya know... I have never had much interest in card tricks, but I came across this on a whim and figured I'd try it. Your instructions are great! I was doing a slower version in about an hour of practice, and this is from someone who has issues shuffling cards. Thanks so much!

[@TheNicolaiBrix]

You have helped me so Much already! 30 min and it’s a part of my routine... now it’s around 30sec😂😂 very helpful

[@jonmcnamara6687]

Subscribed! I managed to do this right by the 3rd try and only took me another two hours to get fast. You're the man!

[@MatchuFtw]

Jon McNamara I wouldn't be here without you guys so I'm not the man, you are

[@jonmcnamara6687]

Any tips on how to do this any quicker? Obviously practice but I mean things like finger position and things like that.

[@tyrieff12]

Nice man ! I find it easier to actually do the actual swivel part when you turn the cards clockwise with your thumb rather than your pointer finger.

[@alfreddimond5881]

Its pretty simple but it took me 1 hour to follow because the camera is showing opposite our point of view. So his left hand, from the viewer's point of view, is on the right. His right hand, from the viewer's point of view is on the left. Everytime he does a move, we have to adjust our viewpoint and do the move from our side. Its kind of confusing for the first 20 minutes or so. But after watching the video many times for 1 hour, I finally got it and it turns out to be very simple. Thanks for the video.

[@stickyrice02]

Watched and followed: nailed it in 2 times. Bro, from me to you, you deserve all the subbers in the world. Very professional and keep up the totally AWESOME work! :D

[@MatchuFtw]

Loetje Dieters I appreciate the positive feedback!

[@faisalafiq]

+Jay Nation my hands are small any tips?

[@stickyrice02]

Well, I just nailed it with lots of practice, and I can bet I've got smaller hands than you!

[@madshansen7238]

RainbowMantis

[@Vaylon.]

my first finger is almost to long o_O

[@jayvis123111]

I don't know how I didn't get it until now but that rotation bit with our index finger, I kept wanting to do it basically anti-clockwise and my hands just got in the way. Telling me to show the back of the cards somehow got it to click. I have no idea how I found this so difficult to get but it brought me a lot of joy to learn how to do this!

[@jamesthe-doctor8981]

So I just learned the Sybil from your other video a couple hours ago, and I still need practice with it, but to break up the monotony I started on this one. Sure, it's a much easier flourish, but I pretty much nailed it on the second try. A few more tries and I started to feel pretty good about it! I've still got a long way to go, but If you've ever wondered whether or not your tutorials are any good at helping us noobs, wonder no more! Thanks again, Jay!

[@MatchuFtw]

I appreciate your feedback man! Glad I can help guide you on your sleight of hand journey

[@yugioh8810]

thanks I just learned this trick from your video and i figured out a way to make it more smooth this way: once you take your first cut with the other hand dont hold it against your thumb, instead let your thumb loose, and as you're placing your the first cut at the bottom already have your thumb adjusted to be inserted between the remaining two cuts. Then you can just steal with one motion. otherwise you have to replace your thumb from against the first cut (as you're holding it) to the middle of the remaining two cuts . this adds an additional thumb move that doesn't look as smooth

[@brendansoh5065]

This channel should have at least 500k subs its great

[@AndeeRoemoe]

You seriously deserve a lot more recognition considering how professional your tutorials are. Keep up the great work Jay. :)

[@MatchuFtw]

Cheers! I'm glad you enjoy the content!

[@Othmarius]

It´s insane! The people with the highest recognition on youtube are both bad performers as well as no authorities in sleight of hand at all. But yet they are all over the place exposing material they don´t even know proper and teaching bad stuff. Man I had to say it ot loud! I feel better now. This channel however is really refreshing. Great work Jay! Keep it up!

[@JoE-sg8op]

This was the best tutorial ever! This video needs more likes!

[@presleyspringfield687]

I love the fact that you are left handed because I get the demonstration in the hand that I use ^-^

[@multiversetraveller3118]

But for me it gets confusing because I'm left handed.

[@jokeyDavid]

Took me a few tries but finally got the hang of it! Thanks :D

[@ashtemnewar5628]

I've been watching your videos for weeks. ... And you are Awesome! Lean alot but still to learn more. Thank you brother 😇

[@DullSharpie]

First off, Thank You for tutorials, I have taken a 2 year hiatus from Magic but I wish I had never stopped practicing. I progress with Every Video, I am so thankful for the content that you put out. Second, I hear some weird mubly voices in this video. I just hope it isn't just me.

[@MatchuFtw]

DullSharpie Haha my old videos had a song in the background that has an audio watermark that I didn't notice until recently. I think the woman is saying Audio Jungle

[@attiatticus3632]

My top card was the 8 of clubs as well haha.. tripped me out enough to pause the video and comment

[@seanlearmond9943]

idk if im the first to say this but the intros to your vids are pretty awesome, and the way your tutorials are done they are super easy to follow and learn :)

[@enricodesign619]

you explain it well, thank you. also a tip from me, use a deck in new deck order so you can see if you messed it up :) because as a totally new guy in card tricks, you can easily confuse yourself :)

[@rainix7817]

Omg thanks Jay Nation you deserve all subs in the world!!!!!!

[@DiogenesDaDawg1010]

Best cardistry tutorial

[@devinhadley6164]

Thank you so much i took your advise and now i can do it and probably by next week ill be able to do it like you THANKS YOU you deserve a lot of subs.

[@sashweana]

Liked the video immediately as soon as I heard that Krewella intro

[@YudhaRuuzami]

Thanks for the tutorial bro It really help me practicing cardistry

[@chipinchina]

I like his vids too - don't get me wrong. But, I find that the best way to view this is by flipping your screen upside down by right-clicking your mouse, going to "display settings", "display orientation", and then "landscape (flipped)". Then view it at the lowest speed. I'm not sure why he hasn't started filming POV tutorials yet. Best way to learn magic.

[@youraveragedude7416]

MASTERED IT IN 2 MINUTES THANKS SO MUCH DUDE!

[@parathrax8766]

i learned this in about 25 min its really satisfying

[@georglindberg8966]

Great tutorial! I learned it and kept doing it constantly while watching some series. Now I can nail it flawlessly almost every time :)

[@Franz_il_cinghiale]

best tutorial ever! thank you so much

[@starluxstudio619]

Haha thats hilarious... at 9:00 when you took the triple lift I was practicing the swivel cut, and naturally went into a lift right before you did. I took a triple lift on accident too. Good trick man! You predicted my mistake 5 years ago

[@multiversetraveller3118]

Thanks jay! This video helped me a lot. Keep up this awesome work.

[@kitkatmeowbark3941]

Very nice. I hope I figure it out. It looks very nice.

[@alms9633]

Dude thank you so much! I'm kinda slow at first but I can remember the whole process so now it's just down to practice. Briliant, liked and subscribed!

[@thaddaeusb7025]

AlMs96 shop kids

[@lil_cornmuffin_9851]

[@sankri2004]

Thanks :) it helped me a lot.. wishing u good luck with your future videos

[@MatchuFtw]

Mr Big Thanks man I appreciate it!

[@CardsharpChris]

Very cool and helpful. Thanks!

[@absolutebmx2885]

got it after the second try thanks Bro it was a really good trick worked a treat on people when I used it In a trick with the lads

[@Svetylkovo]

As a super beginner I've just bought the Stripper deck from Bicycle and I've noticed that after this cut the middle chunk gets rotated 180 degrees which actually breaks the deck for the "stripping" tricks to be performed. I was wondering, is there a version of this cut which also keeps the card orientation of all 3 chunks? Or maybe as a workaround, when I would like to do the stripping tricks, I just won't do this kind of cut and I will leave it for some later "real magic" tricks you show here which I am not able to do yet :-D.

[@ivryshlomi]

I find your videos are the best in utube thanks man))))

[@fmbdan]

Most definitely subscribed and Always always always thumbs up,

[@theredjokers3000]

you can also use your thumb instead of your middle finger while swiveling the packet but you just need your hand in a slightly different position

[@seanmarkham6965]

Amazing I’m right handed but all of these tricks are so much easier with my left hand!

[@tharealpatzilla]

Me too

[@Skibidi_harry]

You are good..! I learn a lot from you...!

[@mysticsoulyt.]

Watched many of your videos,and i really liked it man. you earned a Subscribe :)

[@Kutty_ff9]

You just nailed it bro!!! This helped me in a lot of tricks, perhaps a step ahead in my magical career!!!! 👌👌👊👊

[@chaniagofams2409]

Good presentation..!👍🏼

[@Stellarffxi]

During the switch of the two packs in the first part of the cut, I like to pivot the middle deck into my left hand after grabbing the single deck with the bottom of my right hand... it creates two back to back pivots and also kind of disguises the swapping of the two packs a bit... its very similar to a helix 190 cut, but slightly different...

[@Stellarffxi]

maybe it is a helix 190, just a little bit different method than im accustomed to.. haha

[@Stellarffxi]

lol... ok yeah a helix 190 has 4 packs while this has 3.. so its similar but slightly diff..

[@icanhasbase]

Awesome videos man! I have never tried card tricks like this before tonight. I sat down with a deck of cards for an hour or so. It's pretty crazy how quickly I was able to pick up some of these moves. I'm still sloppy but the improvement over such a short period of time surprised me. I play guitar and I think that it's translating very well here. ....now if I could only silence the card snap during my Cardini.

[@Aizaz_Raza]

Nailed it! Ure a genius man..Cheers

[@Dubk826220]

Dude i love your tutorials but not gonna lie its tough since your left handed! Lol keep em commin tho bro!! Maybe think about a gopro as well! 🤔

[@MatchuFtw]

[@danisham2303]

Would you reccomend Bicycle and Tally-Ho for this trick? That's what i currently have. Btw, what cards u using?

[@patrickjohndelloro5942]

man that was great . thank you with your great tutorials :)

[@MatchuFtw]

patrick john You are welcome good sir!

[@azquidif6319]

Professional tutorial, thank you for helping me do this amazing flourish! Also, I have a question. I am right-handed, but I hold my deck in the left. Is this optimal?

[@adamrobertson2048]

Awesome video man. A POV camera angle would help a bit I think. I'm a very visual learner lol.

[@MatchuFtw]

Adam Robertson I've been getting a lot of requests for POVs so I think I might start doing that

[@pizzle120]

Great video. thank you, sir!

Great teacher

[@mayur.rpatil1060]

good vedio plz make vedio on how to break in new deck of cards

[@devinhadley6164]

hey i just want to say your vids are great. Im a young magician and im just wondering every video i go on for a nice looking flourish or fancy cut i cant do it. is it my lack of talent or lack of hand size. please be honest no hurt feelings. thanks

[@MatchuFtw]

devin hadley Well I don't know you personally so I can't say whether it's your hand size or talent or anything, however I can say that no flourish is impossible! If you put your mind and dedication to practicing then you can and WILL master any sleight or flourish. Just take things one step at a time and above all BE PATIENT :)

[@devinhadley6164]

Jay Nation Thanks! really appreciate it

[@dylanbyrne1404]

Nailed it bam thanks dude appreciate it

[@Anmatuur]

Im right handed person yet many many tricks or cuts I prefer doing by holding deck in left hand. Some tricks feels awkward in left hand , other in right hand..

[@dey4586]

lol im right handed but i always keep the card in my left hand. Should i switch to my right hand? i feel more comfortable in my left hand

[@lucianmacandrew1001]

I thought the Sybil cut was super easy, but cannot get my head around this one.

[@MarioMartinez-tt9ly]

This is my new hobby (:

[@sren1446]

Thanks for that lesson ,,!!!!!

[@Coloradoski24]

Great explanation. Easiest to understand and follow! Please make more tutorials.

[@travisjohnson5493]

great video just wish you wouldn't repeat your steps so many times if we need to see it more than once we can just rewind it, the repeat of the same stuff is what confuses the hell out of me.

[@Christian_Decroze]

Il love your dog. Does he perform bones tricks ? (By the way, nice tutorial. Thank You !).

[@andrewkim2314]

VERY NICE

[@cersti0075]

I have a question, where can i buy this deck of cards, i need some new cards but i dont know wich deck of cards is the best one. Can u help me with that?

[@robertafettuccine]

It's a great cut but I notice that you don't perform the steal very cleanly. It's a lot smoother to steal and swap at the same time. I don't know, maybe you're doing it for demo purposes but it looks rough.

[@-TKMAX-]

when you say 'if you're right handed do it the opposite way you' mean left handed right?

[@pdb4men]

amazing tutorial !! great extended ! best tutorial i have seen !

[@ConnoM38]

will the fact that I have small hands affect this for me?

[@michaeldedad8929]

Hey Jay, I'm having trouble with the second steal/transition do you have any tips?

[@NothingYouHaventReadBefore]

Practice practice practice ;)

[@apple9145]

When i flipped over the top card i got the 8 of clubs lol

[@blackqatanani7300]

I got the 7 of clubs

[@mikesayang]

Subbed! Thank you so much!

[@MatchuFtw]

Mike Nah dude, thank YOU!

[@lynx4318]

Really really great work! Your explanation was awesome and also the performance! I'm a left hander too and it was nice to understand. Big Thumbs Up and Subscribe!😉😄

[@timvanbuel4081]

Hi, amazin tutorial. Im still not fast enough... any tips?

[@MatchuFtw]

Tim van Buel Just keep practicing and the speed will pick up!

[@timvanbuel4081]

ah okay, thanks man!

[@nevaeh4333]

What if you have smaller hands because your a child my hand is to small for the transfer

[@nolanryang7621]

can you do like a POV version?

[@JustPlayGameZ]

i love you!!

[@MichaelShu13]

Okay, i got the rest nailed down easy except for the rotating part. The cards kept slipping of my finger, any extra tips?

[@MatchuFtw]

Michael Shu Practice is really the best advice I can give yah. Maybe try a more stale deck like a bicycle deck or some tally-hos

[@MichaelShu13]

Jay Nation hey, great tutorials man. I'm using bicycle, i tried cutting my fingernails and it helped a lot actually

[@douglascarverjr.4615]

What does the very quiet voice in the background keep saying?

[@chillrealityk4321]

do you need a dublicate for that trick

[@omnichron3374]

Im so cool now! Lol Thanks much.

[@thegreats.t.g5063]

Struggled for like 30 mins because of the perspective, until i turned my phone upside down [With auto-rotate off ]. It works like a charm trust me. Drop a like if it worked for you
