    This is the best tutorial on the dribble I have seen. I've been doing magic/card sleights for 10 months now- practice every day after work-- but have bad tendinitis/arthritis in a couple fingers including my index-- But this method gives me the smoothest dribble-- still going to work on it!!! Always love to see you with a deck of cards in your masterful hands CR !!!

  • @GavinWongMagic
    @GavinWongMagic 3 года назад +2

    A quick tip for folks doing the dribble the second way cause I had issues with this. Don't hold the deck with a deep grip. Use a shallow grip on the deck where the deck is just on your fingertips. This will prevent the cards from getting caught on your fingers as you try to release them during the dribble!

  • @frightrisk7407
    @frightrisk7407 4 года назад

    I believe there is a critical portion of the tutorial missing. Correct me if you think I am wrong. The deck is stabilized against the base of the thumb that is controlling the dribble. If the deck is just out in the air at the ends of your fingers, you can't control the deck. So the the tips of the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th fingers are at the end of the deck that is pointing away from you. The first finger at the second joint is on the top of the cards, at the middle of the outside edge. The thumb is on the outside corner on the edge of the end of the deck that is facing in. The inside corner is pressed against the base of the thumb, more on the top of the deck on that corner. To find the sweet spot, try holding the deck with fingers 2,3 and 4 and the thumb with the 1st finger sticking out straight and not touching anything. You are holding the deck as if you were going to place it in a spectator's hand. Now lower the first finger to touch the deck as Chris shows and pull up with the thumb to get pressure on the deck between the thumb and the 1st finger. The inside corner of the deck will naturally press up against the base of the thumb. As soon as I figured this out, I could do the dribble almost perfectly every time. As you get near the end of the deck, you won't need the balance of the base of the thumb just like you don't need the 3rd (ring) finger. As you hand opens, the last few cards just dribble off the tips of your fingers.

  • @rish1459
    @rish1459 6 лет назад +1

    By far the best explanation I have run across for this technique. Question: Does the fleshy part of your thumb also contact the other corner of the deck?

    • @ellusionist

      Yes, that helps control the drop off rate.

    The cards are getting hung up on my middle finger when I do this dribble. Sounds weird, but I guess I have a lot of meat on the pad of my middle finger in particular. I have tried to back the middle finger up the deck so that I'm gripping it more with the tip of the finger, but it doesn't seem to help. I'll get about half the deck dribbled, and then the second half falls open like the pages of a book, with the back of the cards still stuck to my middle finger. Hope that makes sense. Advice???

    • @ellusionist
      @ellusionist  6 лет назад

      It's tricky, but you may need to "roll' your middle finger out to make space for the cards to fall smoothly.
