A perfect Faro Shuffle. Lennart Green's "Top Shot". Charlie Miller's "Cascade Control".
Card sleights like this often send shivers down the spines of many card magicians. But, not Ian Kendall. The master card magician has spent a lifetime studying these card magic sleight of hand moves and creating ways to make them easy to learn. All of these moves, as well as Paul Harris' "Instant Switch" and the classic sideshow trick "Blockhead", were compiled into his 2004 release "Ba$%ard Hard Moves Made Easy." This controversially-named released helped a whole generation of magicians realize that these challenging sleights are actually well within their grasp.
Now, Ian has recreated all these lessons in HD and has added some bonus moves, handlings and commentary on the original lessons. This amazing download brings "BHMME" into the 21st Century and allows the modern magician to add these powerful sleights to their arsenal.
This is excellent. I have never considered myself a card man but now I have no excuse. Admittedly I have only just watched this through, without a deck in my hands, but I am going to practice properly, for once in my life, because the teaching and HD quality is of such a high standard I feel inspired to devote some time. I want to do everything except the last item. This is like have your own tutor patiently showing you where your fingers should be placed but also giving you tips on when, where and how much pressure to apply. I wish more tution videos were this detailed and helpful.
Excellent teaching for challenging moves. I'm always looking for ways to improve my card dexterity and Faros and I learned a lot. I especially enjoyed the history of how he first learned about the moves and obtained permission to teach them. There's also a quick instruction for the famous blockhead move with a screwdriver which is always fun.
cannot recommend this enough - great, in depth tutorials - several notches above youtube or tiktok stuff - great teacher, plus an unexpected disgusting (but entertaining) bonus

Keith asks: Not a question but an endorsement. I had given up trying to learn a one-handed shuffle until encountering Ian’s teaching on this. Now I’m actually pretty good at it.
