      So incredibly true. Ive watched at least 25 card trick videos that I understand perfectly but can't perform no matter how much I try. I guess part of the trick requires a certain level of dexterity that not everybody has

      @valovanonym Před 4 lety +6

      The only thing needed is practice. Nothing maters other than this, your original dexterity does not matter. Your hands do not matter. Your deck does not matter (you can even do perfect faro with old poopy deck, I do that every days). Just be confident that with enough practice you'll get it and in a certain amount of time you will be able to do it

    Tips that help me.
    1) make sure your cards are air-cushion finish (i tried the first time with normal Maverick and was very hard to do it (probably because i'm a beginner with cards)
    2) don't need to apply to much pressure. Just a little.
    3) use the corner to start the movement.
    4) slight lateral movement
    After half day practicing i finally can do it. Hope any of does tips helps at least one person.

    @SpydersByte Před 5 lety +4

    the math behind card tricks is really interesting. I'm more amazed by the lengths magicians go to to really learn their decks and the muscle memory required to perfectly cut and perfectly shuffle all the time than I am by the actual trick. The balls it takes to put both your memory and your handling together into one trick and be confident that you've done everything perfectly is always impressive.

    Anyone struggling with this may be making the same mistake as me - I just could not get the cards to weave.
    Finally I realised I was gripping the sides too hard.
    I moved my fingers back slightly and slackened my grip and the weave just did itself just like they do in Chris’ excellent tutorial.

    I am addicted to Faros, and I’ve been waiting for this tutorial to see your take on it! Well done, Ram!
    Note: Great practice tip for learning to split the deck evenly: practice in New Deck Order. 8 Out’s return the order, as Chris said. Learn which cards are at the center after each perfect faro. You can use these as a reference point. Putting a deck into NDO is also a g way way to practice culling :)

    I watched this video, probably when he first put it out, and it taught me to faro. Well I learned how, but I always had problems getting it perfect. It’s funny because I couldn’t figure out why my cards weren’t working out right at the top and I didn’t think rewatching this video would help, so recently I looked for other videos that might give me the extra tips I needed to get a perfect faro but none were helping. Finally I came back to this video and watched every detail and was able to correct my problems and get the perfect faro I’ve been looking for. I still have a lot of practicing to do of course, but I was able to figure out the little things I was doing wrong.

    Not to inflate your ego, Chris, but I've watched other tutorials on the faro shuffle and haven't been able to get it down at all. I just tried it after watching your video and besides my uneven packs of cards it worked perfectly. THANK YOU!!!

    BROOO THIS VID HELPED ALOT! The tip thing that helped me the most was when u sid that some decks are cut differently from others, so i fliped my deck and it worked.

    I'm such a huge fan of the perfect shuffle. I worked with a Mathematics professor in the past who completed his doctoral dissertation on the perfect shuffle and is one of 3 people in the world who can riffle-perfect shuffle. I witnessed him perform his dissertation trick once while performed in front of a class of 6th graders. The kids were mildly intrigued, but I was silently losing my shit! Haha.

    I've always been used to doing the bridge shuffle, (that's what I'm used to calling it, don't know if that's correct name for it) which is the only one I know...I'll definitely keep trying. Thanks for tutorial Chris! Always a pleasure to see your magic or puzzle videos!.

    The Faro and Riffle Shuffles are two basic starting things to learn with cards. At first, I could not do them worth a damn. My hands aching, cards flying everywhere. My Riffle was a disaster at first. But just KEEP PRACTICING, and eventually you just get it. These moves require very fine muscle control/movements that is hard to describe. You just have to keep doing it. First day or two my hands ached and I got nowhere, then I woke up the next morning and was able to do it much better. A week later I was doing them really well. Just keep practicing!

    Exactly 1,288 Days ago i watched this video, from that day i have tried many a time but only once managed to do the Faro shuffle, it has dawned on me as my one failure in cardistry from my time in high school, HOWEVER, after rewatching this video today i can confidently say i was a very stupid kid, way back when, i had missed the small curl you do and it had never crossed my mind, fast forward to today when i am rewatching this and noticed it. Pleased to say that within 20 minutes i can now do the faro shuffle with a mild 50% success rate POGU.

    The Fero shuffle was constructed for the salon game Faro which was a card game played in doubles. After a round was played the doubles had to be broken up so a perfect integration of weaving cards were necessary to separate the doubles. But, and here is the caveat that it is also a good shuffle to control a deck outside of the game Fero.

    Watched this on Sunday to learn the faro shuffle. In-faro / out-faro, yeah yeah just show me how it’s done. I was having enough trouble just getting the cards to interleave. Been working on it this week, and just decided to do perfect shuffles until it came back to new deck order. 51 perfect shuffles later I now understand in-faro vs out-faro. ☺️
