What made you start cardistry?! Share your story!
U, u made me
Chris Ramsay, u did!!!!!!
Frens!
I never knew what cardistry was till I saw your videos
Your tutorial on the lepaul spread lead me to look up the virtuoso cards which lead me to a bunch of cardistry videos and I still watch your channel for flourishes because of your teaching style. Thanks a lot Chris

When Thomas Edison tried and failed nearly 2,000 times to develop the carbonized cotton-thread filament for the incandescent light bulb. And when asked about it, he said "I didn't fail; I found out 2,000 ways how not to make a light bulb," but he only needed one way to make it work.

Chris you inspired me to start cardistry! I recently went through ACL surgery and to keep my self busy for weeks of being in bed I thought of doing magic tricks. Went on CZcams and the first card video I saw was yours and you really inspired me to pick up the cards. Your videos are so entertaining and fun to watch because of your personality, I really love it. Now I'm hooked to my cards 24/7. I barely use my phone now, my mom used to yell at me saying stop using your phone and now it's stop using your cards lol. Thank you again for introducing me to my new love and passion and please never stop making videos it really makes me happy and want to learn more. Thank you again. Lots of love and God bless.
"Start from anywhere" - advice that should be more common
those giant cards were great lol
One thing that seems to really help mean clean up moves is to step away for a while and come back fresh. A small break can really makes a difference. Also for some reason switching up the deck seems to change the mechanics a bit. Each of my decks act a little different. Could just be phycological, but I thought I would share.
My hands are so tiny. Mad respect when you pulled out that big deck and still continued to do tricks. You’re great.
Your last part about your mind practicing even when you're not is 100% spot on. We are learning about mindfulness techniques in my cognitive psychology class. Pro athletes use it all the time. Lots of studies have shown it's effectiveness.
oh oh oh finger dexterity exercises!!!! we got some of those up on the tube!
Rise Magic i was about to say «rise magic has fingers exercises» but you are faster than me ;)
Depends on what "tube".......
@@midnightblues9895 HAHAHAHA OMG
Deck-xterity
My hands were sore cause I started doing it constantly
Love that you mention hand size. A regular bicycle deck almost dwarfs my hands, and at first it was a struggle to even shuffle a deck. Can’t wait to learn more.
How to start cardistry: open up School of Cardistrys youtube channel and start from their first video "grips". Then progress forward. The most important tips i have for beginner cardists:
1. Only focus on the moves you actually like. Otherwise you'll end up wasting your time.
2. Find a community. If you dont have cardist friends irl head over to reddit or discord, the community is the most important thing about cardistry. Without the community, I would've quit over a year ago.
Juho Vuorela sounds great thx
I agree, school of cardistry has a ton of videos. @Jaspas has skills!
What is so important about the cardistry community?
Juho Vuorela I
Benjamin Long nothing is necessarily important about it. Just a fun hobby
I started cardistry for a Halloween costume and I had about 3 months to prepare. I'm still very much a beginner but I never thought I would become so addicted to something I just wanted to check out. Thanks for all the help Chris!
I can see the work you put on every video. So well made. Made me smile with the giant cards and the moves you made with them. Just that takes an effort people don't see at first.
I’m just a 62 year old empty-nester Mom who LOVES close-up magic. Cards are my fave. Coins are great, too. But, CARDS! And I can barely shuffle. Then, online, I run into this CARDISTRY thingy! LOL! Never saw anything like it. Big props to all those who take the time, dedication, have the tenacity to be their best. I watch so much of it. LOVE YOUR CHANNEL, CHRIS! You’re very humble and mad with appreciation for other magicians and cardists. You are so fun and crack me up!
I find this video very uplifting, not just in cardistry but life in general. Thanks for doing this vid!
Just ordered my first set of cards, was inspired by your videos and ordered your red knights.. Looking forward to trying out this cool sport. Already into flower sticks and throwing knives, this will complete my trifecta..
Ah yes, flower sticks, throwing knives, and playing cards. The Holy Trinity.
Chris Ramsay is clear and his videos unlike others are very simple and entertaining. He has a great way of putting you in to
your own comfort zone and level. Good videos, keep it up.
Found your channel about a month ago, and now I'm learning cardistry, some magic tricks AND I just bought some puzzles, levels 1-8. So thank you for bringing this interest into my life
The reason I started cardistry was because it looked really cool, and it looked like a very fun thing to learn. The first thing I learned was one of your cardistry videos, and after that I was hooked into it. I love it, and it is so much fun to do. Great video Chris.
I watched your top 5 favorite decks of 2017 video just a few months ago. It was suck an intriguing video and you did a fantastic job on describing the cards. It was almost like I could feel what you were felling on each deck. So I bought a couple of your favorite and have learned a lot. I now have all your favorite decks except the smoke and mirrors private reserve and the Dan and Dave private reserve. I never thought in a million years I would be playin with cards like I do. You have gotten me through a lot and you just don’t know it. Peace!
This was super helpful! Thanks for making this.
Thanks Chris, like a lot of things, especially on youtube, half of making it look easy is not showing the part where it was really hard. One thing I found that helps me with problem moves is to make the moves very slowly at first, even using your other hand to help stabilize (in a one-handed cut) and to put the cards where they should be and you can then figure out where the cutting hand needs to be and why you keep dropping them. For me, it's usually a matter of where on the fingertip the corner/edge is. A 1/4 inch can be a big difference.
Anyway, I started watching your videos to learn some magic tricks to do for my kids and such, but was always fascinated by cardistry, but mostly just to watch. Now the kids harass me for carrying cards everywhere because I also watched your cardistry vids and started wanting to learn more. Lastly, I have your Memento Mori cards and they are simply the best for fanning of all the cards I've used, just so smooth easy to distribute evenly. I hope you make more and do some that are all Ramsey, but closer to traditional card design - think Unchained or DB's Lions series, etc. Thanks again!
Super stoked on all your content man.
whenever I get discouraged by my lack of progress in cardistry I watch this video ...
and it helps me every time
so thank you, master **bow**
thanks for everything you do you've got me started i am a mechanic and take alot of the moves you've taught me and started doing them with nuts and bolts, gears, my favorite is a nut and bolt that "magically" screw together thanks
Dude, this sounds interesting. Put up a video of that stuff, I would totally watch it :D
Dude that actually sounds sweet
Cameron I agree with Erika. I would like to see that. I already subscribed to your channel if you do decide to put up that video.
Only just discovered this video. Really appreciated the nod to the yoyo/kendama community! I'm coming from yoyos myself over to cardistry and can't wait to learn.
Hey chris just wanted to extend my thanks to you sir for these videos and your positive attitude aswell. Now i know this will sound cheesy but you indirectly motivated me to grab the decks once again. Fell in love instantly with cardistry and already doing one handed cuts and beginner flourishes. Im back at it again and also bought a killer bee deck. As soon as they arrive im more than certain that will motivate me even more. Thanks for your content, tutorials and reviews, keep it up.
Boom first love the vids!!!!
From as far back as I can remember I have loved cards. I got into dealing black jack and loving cards and the feel of them. I never knew there were other freaks like me out there and that this was a thing. YOU showed me I have a place in the world. Thanks to you I'm gonna start learning cardistry. Thank you for your passion.
Just started my journey into this universe. Thanks for the help and positive advise. I started looking into this since I thought it would be a great way to impress my little girl. I'm a musician but didnt want that to be the only way to impress her. She lights up every time I learn something new. Its really cool. Thanks again bro!
Could you teach us the moves at 37 seconds and 23? Also I love the way you see cardistry and the moves that you create. You are a HUGE inspiration to me
0:23 3D by Chase Duncan just look that up and you will find a tutorial. Edit: here you go czcams.com/video/kreCSNWgip0/video.html
Funny thing. Im not exactly a beginner but Im still pretty shit so I still watch your cardistry videos. Plus I like the vibe some of your moves have like hubble.
I really like your channel because you explain everything needed or that could be useful. Keep doing this amazing helpful stuff Chris Ramsay
As someone who constantly fidgets, this weekend like the perfect hobby for me. I used to constantly switch my 7x7 Rubik's cube between checkered and ringed patterns, but this seems way more interesting
Hell yeah i laughed so hard when you pulled out that thick as huge deck XD
I gave a like because I know what POGs are.
thanks for making it so easy to keep up. love the videos bro
I'm watching this on my cousins account but thank you ,I've started with cardistry yesterday and was having trouble with the in hand riffle shuffle and you reminded me to think outside the box and i am better at it and I'm rocking my 15 year old life, thank you again
I started cardistry at 20th May 2017 (a year after the video liquid paper by the virts) after seeing that video, I fell in love with cardistry and I'm now 5 months into it and it's been a great experience so far. Tip: finger exercises help you really get better helped me too. Tell me what cut you want me to learn .( I'm into spinny things and comfy things)
Oreocycllo learn phaced by Tobias levin
Too late I have already learnt that I even learnt fresco I can do it pretty well.
Make your own bro your own stlye!
Where are you from?. . . If you don't mind me asking
Im korean if ur asking me
Man, i just got my first bycicles this morning ... 20 minutes ago actually... and everything is falling out of my hands lol
Im starting as soon as I get my cards haha. It's actually because of watching your videos. I've always been fascinated by it and wanted to get into a few years ago but I didn't know what it was called until now and you re-inspired me to get into it so thank you!
I just got myself a deck of cards and will try some cardistry. If I ever get the hang of it, you'll have given me the spark and support for starting. Thanks!
Your awesome. I just want to say I stumbled upon your videos on accident. And discovered a passion. Im not very good yet but I can't stop playing with cards. Thank you so much.
same
Yo Chris can u name all the moves you shown in the begging of the video, pleasee? ❤❤
watching your videos i love your look and this all pick up cards 3 weeks ago and have had them in my pocket ever since
You sir! Are the most help for this stuff i have watched so many videos and this one was definitely the best for basics! Thanks! It helped a lot!
Chris I'm trying to learn the epidural move but my cards seem to keep on getting stuck, any tips? maybe some lubriderm?
Max Diamond buy a new deck?
I have started practising since 2 weeks, i have the black tiger deck for one week now and I have practised the spring so much, the corners are becoming white..
This is such a great motivational video. It can be applied to anything, not just cardistry.
I started cardistry when I saw you the first time. I got here from the german CZcamsr MrTriXXL, and the first video I ever saw from you was the reverse waterfall tutorial. Since then I started practising, I dropped cards, I picked them up and started again. I'm still pretty terrible at cardistry but I keep doing it. I am actually filming a cardistry Video for my Instagram. So thank you Chris for being my inspiration.
Thank You Chris for inspiring not only me, but a lot of people to keep doing what we love.
Wir lieben dich Chris!
Intro Song: "Super 1" by Cospe, just in case someone rolling through goes hunting for the song like i did.
Thanks dude
Thanks bro.
Actually really appreciate that.
Patrick star in the thumbnail made me feel awesome
Lol!
You... Your enthusiasm and presentation... Very positive... The more i practiced i realised it's very good tool to build dexterity and cognitive skills in students... Especially online
Chris great tip about practicing over a soft surface. I've started practicing sitting on the couch, with an ottoman in front with a blanket draped over my lap and the ottoman to catch all the cards I drop.
Most important tip...subscribe to chris
just do iiiiitt!!!
Elinas?
Cockrene ελληνας φικε
Can you teach us the triangle and double triangle cut
Luke Wallis yeeeeeees
shin lim depressed that u r a fake
YOU got me started Cardistry few monts ago with your videos and i love it... its like literally hand made potion for my brain ..thx brother Ramz
This helped me a lot .... I learned so many cardistry moves that i never thought i would never learn ... Thanks a lot Chris.
Does anyone know the song used during the opening montage?
You have a huge deck lol
+Tim Carver *blush
😂
It matches his big hands.
Pause...
Deck size doesn’t matter
This is so helpful! Thank you thank you. I love the beginner tips best!
Cardisty is so much fun and i love it.
I started out with a False Cut and i developed it into a flurish. Now i have Made three flourishes myself. They are simple but Mine...
Still cant belive Ragnar Lothbrok is so good for a magician
Lol, Vikings
Does anyone know what the move at 0:33 is called?
I learnt it from you my man! I have now got really into it and improved a lot, thanks!!
Awesome video, super inspiring and amazing advice!! Thanks Chris👍🏻
6:49 I dropped my deck at the same time wtf
lol.....Chris I remember pogs, also quick question how can I extend the life of my cards?
Okay I figured that's what he meant. But the way he said most of us wouldn't know what they were, I thought he said pawgs 😂
Thanks man, extremely helpful tips
loved the way you did the intro the music complimented the flourishes really well
pogs yes lol Amazing what you still have and dont realize until Chris Ramsay says pogs and you instantly think .. I could win so many who wants to play!?
Travis Westcott I forgot what they were until me and coworkers got talking about it a few months back and bought a bunch haha
right on man i still have a bunch and it is actually not a bad concept for a game, but the biggest downfall is you need a little space to play so that thing are not interfering with other people. If i knew someone that would play id still play with the commons or duplicates but i love the art on them you cant find old artwork from that era very often that is intriguing except old magic cards but i new got into that unfortunately i guess lol
7:00 I would like to learn that anybody knows what the move is called?
Elionexis just leaving a comment to see the answer
Judo flip from franco pascalli
Judo cut
Its called fuck this shit
Some great lessons to encourage the interest in cardistry. Thank you for your words of wisdom.
Great video Chris👍 no matter what your videos are about I always look forward to the next one!! But just curious any headphone users only getting sound in the left ear?? 😞
2:05 Hehe.. Get it.. "Deck-sterity" xD
You can have all my decks if you reply Chris
Shhhhhh....If you do reply I'll just edit that bit out tbh
Hey Chris I am Richard and lives in Holland and my inspiration comes from you and now I teach young people the art.
Thanks for the inspiration 🤘✌
Thanks Chris - great advice !!
What cards did he use?
Brush playing cards
A flat one
It’s super interesting bc when I’m learning a new trick, a day after the first time I’ve practiced it, I can do it a lot better than the first time, even tho I haven’t even touched a deck of cards in abt 12h. It’s super cool how the brain processes the new information even when you’re not doing it
i love that you mentioned kendama and yoyos, which are the first skill toy type hobbies i got into when i was a little kid, and now im 19 and want to learn this shit
Great vid Chris. Came across your tutorials by accident a few weeks ago (I was actually just looking for a “cool” deck of cards for Poker XD), and never knew anything about cardistry. But seeing you use something that to me at the time seemed so ordinary (playing cards) and transform it into a visually stunning artform really roused my interest. First deck i bought was the Memento Moris (they were just beautiful) and immediately got to practicing some moves. Currently have 4 in my collection and looking at getting the Knights next (Bicycles are actually pretty expensive where I come from. Figured i might as well get decks I really liked XD) Can’t wait for 1st’s release! Thank you for the inspiration!
PS: Showed some moves to my gf and actually got her into cardistry now too. Now I’m buying decks for 2. So thanks for that :p
Excellent job. I can't wait to learn how to do this stuff.
Thank you, knowing you thought your hands were too small has inspired me to keep at it
I saw my friend doing sybil cut and snap change and i became superinterested in cardistry and magic. Then i saw your tutorial to 3pac shakur and it was one of my first fluorishes. Thank u for that 👊💪
this is the challenge for me now! i feel natural playing darts with both hands and flip butterfly knives the filipino way in both hands. THIS and WRITING and GUITAR with the other hands is such a challenge! thank you for the inspiration papa Chris!
Wow @chrisramsay great shout out to finger tutting. I glove and do lots of finger tutting! Love to see a mixture of both artforms that have the potential to help each other out!! Love it
so encouraging to hear that you too felt rubbish at the start! Thanks man
Thanks for those tips chris ! Really nice vid I really appreciate it ^^
Really insightful video man. Keep it up.
Best! Best damn vid for me, for beginners. Somewhere I forgot to keep having fun and got lost in the grind. You rock!
Hey, I know this vid is old, but I just wanted to say your vids are awesome! I just started trying and have just gotten the hang of the Charlier, Running Charlie, and Revolution cut. I also, had watched a sleight of hand vid, and although I'm super sloppy, it still worked on my friends and I'm going to keep working on it no matter what kind of a deck I have in my hands!
man the intro is like cards dancing man!!
luv it!!!
Oh hi. I'm fairly new to cardistry and this video has inspired me. So, you've definitely been a catalyst for me to keep going. Thanks mate! Subscribed. o/
I know what pogs are. :)
I yoyo, play knuckle rollers, begleri, and even a touch of kendama. I got a deck for cardistry, too. Love these skill toys.
That being said, I really liked this video. It was really encouraging to me, and it really applies to any of the things I do above. Thanks.
Loved the cardist compilation
Gave you a like and subscribed. Also found some of my pogs a while ago. And a few smashers!!
Very nostalgic lol
Great videos, trying to learn more to be supportive of my brother :)
suuuper helpful! thanks chris!!
