This is so much fun. Jason I am 70 years old, retired and looking forward to exploring magic and maybe learning a trick or two (old dogs etc...). Looking forward to more of your videos. I also enjoy your reaction and interview videos so much. Stay safe over there and thank you so much for making these entertaining and informative videos.
Hello Skep! Awesome. Thanks so much for your wonderful comment. Things like this really lift me up! :) Really glad you enjoy these videos... and yes I think exploring and learning magic is awesome regardless of age. It's a fun hobby... then you're challenge is finding people to perform for! Which is hard even for me! I guess it's best when you're in school or work and can just show classmates or colleagues.... I don't have either available to me anymore! So either I'm showing my girlfriend.... or a friend.... but after having to leave Kyiv... don't really have anymore friends nearby. So I need to start making new friends or getting creative about who I could perform to. (Going on on the street to perform to strangers requires a lot of effort and high level of energy.... which I'm not always up for!)
The sleights and card moves I've learned so far has helped tremendously with the neuropathy and joint pain in my hands. 🤔 or it's made the pain so bad I don't feel it no more. 🤷♂️ either way it's quite the enjoyable skill to develop in my opinion. Take care! 😊
Where do I start , your video gave me all the tips I needed to do the faro correctly . Thanks for taking the time and patience necessary to master this slight. I highly recommend anyone whom is struggling with this move. Thanks again : Old Spany
Thanks I tried so many tries before this video but then when you mentioned the how the card is printed I tried a different side and it worked thank you so much!
The issue with a new deck isn't about the printing, but about the cutting. Cards are cut out of their press sheets with a blade (cutting die) that exerts a downward pressure on the stack. This downward pressure causes the very edges of the new cut to deform by "lipping over" slightly. I imagine that would interfere with the interleaving.
Hey David, yes that's what I was referring to when I said "how they are printed"... I just didn't use the most correct wording possible. :) I should have said, "it depends on how your particular deck was MADE". That being said, I do appreciate you sharing the precise details for the benefit of people reading through the comments here! I did actually consider explaining about this in the video... making diagrams to explain it... BUT... then I decided with RUclips I need to focus more on the most important elements, and I was concerned if I go too far off into the details I would get less people actually finishing watching the video. I'm trying to work on keeping the length of my videos to a reasonable amount... already here I had to break this off into a "part 2" video! 😅
Trying to learn this because of the mnemonica stack... just so you know, your video helped me immensely. My success rate for a perfect faro jumped from 20% to 60% immediately after watching your video, and I am working on getting to 100... thanks :)
Hey Kevin, thanks for the comment. :) I'm doing mostly good! Still a little uncertain about medium-term plans. But the next 3.5 weeks we don't have to move anywhere which is super wonderful. :)
It's amazing to me how the cards interlace perfectly... like it goes against physics but that's why I'm fascinated by this. Don't know if my fingers can grip all the cards when finally doing the bridge either.
really nice serie :) I tried once and for all to learn the faro at the beginning of the year, still not quite satisfied today, I still need a fair amount of force to interlace the cards, I do it from the outside (the corners facing the ground) it's easier for the right index, but I'll try to stretch a bit and do it your way.
Finally! I finally was able to do a decent faro shuffle! It was the wedge part that hammered it home for me and allowed me to do the proper way of doing the shuffle. Thank you.
Yo, I gotta show mad love and give a big shoutout to the one who dropped that tutorial on mastering the Faro shuffle. Your video, it's been a game-changer for me, and I'm all about that like button and subscribing to your channel. You're the real deal, my friend. Keep spreading that knowledge. Peace! 🙌
Getting the cards to interweave just takes practice. Its very fine movement and muscle control that comes after practice. Hard to describe, but if you keep practicing you should just be able to do it. It comes from the way the cards are cut when made. The edges have a slight bevel/curve so with the right pressure, the cards slide into place by themselves. The Faro is an awesome looking move and it does not damage the cards. Riffle shuffles with too much intial pressure can crease the cards over time. But with the Faro, you never bend the cards hard enough to damage them. Great vid
@aero_hyper6273 keep practicing, you should get it in a week if you try every day. Hold the two deck halves nearly straight towards each other, angled a little, not too much. The two deck halves should slip together by themselves. Also try turning the two deck halves over, its usually easier in one orientation than the other good luck ♠
Hi Jasin. Great upload. Faro shuffles tend to be challenging. But certain decks faro easier. But once you get that feel it becomes second nature 👍👏🤟👏👍😎
I jumped over to these newest videos after watching your 100k video because I've been binging your channel. (Came in to the channel on a react vid) So just wanted to say. You've leveled up your videos here. All that work was worth it. The edit on this was up there with my top RUclipsrs level. Kudos!
This is a very good tutorial mate. Could you please do a video showing the order of the deck after each shuffle. But using a new deck face up. That was really interesting to see the ordering, and I'd love to see how the order changes after each shuffle. You might get lots of views if you did. Cheers,
Great video Jason. Do you know if it might be a good idea to dip the ends of a pack of cards when they are together with the jokers on either end of this pack into some watered down paper glue, just for 5 seconds or so and then wipe the glue off each card on both sides. I'm thinking that this might straingthen the ends of the cards so they don't get damaged do quickly.
Well done, bravo. Thanks so much Jason, this is very very very useful and well-thought out. Another "Jason" that does cards. (This came to my feed xuz I've been bingeing on Jason Ladanye.)
Hi Jason. Thx for this nice, simple, down to earth explanation. I am actually writing the instructions of an effect I hope to release this year and would like to ask you if I can join a link to this video, mentioning your name of course. Thx. Paul
Here a year after you posted this. I could not get this down for the life of me . I just could not. then i opened a new deck of cards. i got it first try 😐 i could have saved myself the frustration
Ich übe diese Art des Mischens seit Jahren aber diese Eleganz hab ich noch nie geschafft. Jetzt klappt's, obwohl meist trotzdem noch ein Fehler drinn ist, aber jetzt heißt es halt üben üben üben
I cheat at the faro. I bought a set of plastic cards that actually look and feel like paper cards with a plastic coating. They faro SUPER easy. Armed with information in this video, I'm going to give a regular deck another shot.
Hey Andy! Well I probably use one deck for about 2 weeks before I SHOULD throw it away. But in reality I use it longer since I don't have access to all my stuff right now. I think if you were WORKING actively every day showing tricks as your job.... you would probably use up 2 decks per week. So it really depends on how many different people are handling your cards.... how humid your environment is... Once the cards start to feel too grimy and sticking together and just not performing good enough… It's probably best to throw them out and grab a new deck. ACTUALLY... If you want to train yourself for ultimate flexibility, it's good to mostly practice and learn with cards that are in fairly good condition… But sometimes also try those same moves that you learned with an old deck of cards. That way you might be able to perform even with an old beat up deck of cards at a friends house. But most of the time I try to stick with cards that are in fairly good condition.
@@JasonParkerMagic I've got decks of all ages that I try to work with all the time just so I can get the feel of them. I have to make sure to practice my double lifts on old cards, because they are more difficult for me on old decks. I only do tricks for my family and friends, but, it seems like, without fail, I don't have cards with me when someone wants to see a trick, and they'll have really nasty cards. I try to keep some of my "middle aged" decks so I can make invisible decks out of them, or have spare cards if I have someone sign a card for an Ambitious Card trick.
You can do it with the finger pressure to close the air gaps! unless they are actually damaged.... then you might wanna get some new cards somewhere. Maybe you can find bicycle cards more locally than the US like the German or polish amazons? Not too sure....
Great tips! I still can’t for the life of me get the cards to spread out evenly like a fan before interweaving them (though I’m using old cards). I can’t even get them to spread out at all… am I missing something?
I'm not really sure I understand your question... can you possibly restate it in a different way? why would you fan out the cards before interleaving them?
@@JasonParkerMagic I guess I don’t know any of the terms, but I meant when the cards spread out a little. I can’t figure it out. My cards just hit each other or separate into several chunks. I guess I’ll have to try newer cards.
@@mnossy11 Are you applying BOTH of the angles I mentioned? And are you compressing the air with your right pointer finger? I tried to mention everything I could think of in this video that could cause issues.... if you want you can record yourself and send me a video of that on my email here on RUclips.... just go to the about tab of my channel home and you can email me a link there. Then I see what is happening. But make sure you've tried all the tips in this video first!! :)
Please could you let me know if the person who was hit by the flying paint brush is alright? Amazing what you had to do to put this great tutorial together! I realy enjoyed this video. I've only just come across the Faro shuffle which I'm hoping to perfect with the help of this great video. Thank you.
Yeah I agree they would faro easier in that direction, you're right. :) I generally wear the cards in (lots of shuffling, springs, faros, etc) for 15 or so minutes... and then they start to faro easy enough in both directions. I find myself wishing they printed Bicycles by default nowadays in Modern cut instead of Traditionally cut....
@@JasonParkerMagic most of the earliest instruction I found on Faro was for Standard/Modern cut cards, and this was never mentioned. Set me back weeks :-)
This is just brilliant. I mean...absolutely top shelf. I'm not here to promote myself, but let me just give you some context. I wanted to try to raise money for charity, but I don't have any performing experience, and I'm broke. So on 01/01/2024, I started a RUclips channel and said "Hey, I'm gonna do a trick per day for every day of 2024 for charity, and if I don't finish, I'll get the word 'Failure' tattooed on my forearm." Also...I'm not a magician. Yes, that's insane. Yes, I'm still going through with it. So...the position that puts me in is that I not only have to _perform_ 366 magic tricks...I first have to *_learn_* 366 magic tricks. But then, having begun, I realized that the most popular videos are actually tutorials. So now I have to learn things well enough and quickly enough that I can then _teach_ them. So…that gets us to today, and to your video here. One of my subscribers asked me to teach shuffles yesterday, so today I'm following up by teaching the Faro - which is how I found you. As with most topics, sadly, there's a lot of really bad information and instruction. A lot of the videos basically come down to about two minutes of a person saying "This is how you Faro suffle - look, you just do this." *But then I found your video.* I'm sorry, I know I took a while getting to the point, but I wanted to be clear about the context, because this is important to me, and I'm commenting on more than just the outstanding quality of the video. I'm also commenting on you, specifically, as a magician, as a teacher, _and_ as a content creator. Trust me, you're well above average in all three categories. This is just perfect, sir. The video itself _is_ great. It's good quality, good focus, high definition and easy to follow. Both the cards and your hands are easy to see against the background, and your instructions are clear, concise and to the point, but still really helpful. The introduction clip, where you slowed your performance down to ultra slow-motion and explained every detail of each step is absolutely genius. I was completely blown away. That intro by itself is miles ahead of most tutorials, but then you went back and included some troubleshooting and general tips, too. I'll probably model a bit of my video around yours - as an homage, not an imitation, because I'll also be recommending your video in mine. I genuinely don't know if I could have learned this from RUclips if I hadn't found your video. I have watched a *lot* of videos about the Faro shuffle in the last two days, and you can believe me when I tell you that there is nothing else out there that is anywhere _close_ to this good. Like…if someone wanted to learn the Faro, but said they were only able to invest 15 minutes watching video, I would send them directly here and have no doubt that they would come away knowing the move. Obviously fifteen minutes isn't enough to learn the move, it takes hours of practice, but this is genuinely the only 15 minutes of *actual instruction* that anyone should need. Frankly, having seen this, I don't even feel like I need to make a Faro shuffle tutorial. I mean...I'm still going to, because I have to post a video per day, but I don't feel like it really needs to be made anymore. 😂 And I know that you won't even notice a difference, since I only have 160 subscribers, but I'm gonna cite your video in mine, and provide a link to it. If people are genuinely trying to learn this and they happen across my video, I would be happy and proud to direct them to *_your_* video. Honestly, thank you for this. I have, of course, subscribed to your channel, and I will be spending my next few days watching as many of your videos as I can. I just can't wait to see what else you have to offer. *Note* I'm sorry for how long this is, and I'm sorry if it seems like I'm trying to promote my own channel - I really am just trying to compliment you. Your teaching style is, in my opinion, _incredible_ - it's informative and really helpful, but it's also engaging and highly entertaining. That's a rare talent, being able to teach people something in a way that lets them actually enjoy the learning process, and I just wanted to acknowledge that. I only mentioned what I have going on as a way to provide context for how many of these videos I've watched, how important this is to me, and just how rare you are as both a teacher and an entertainer. But...I do get that it kinda reads like a promotion, so I'm perfectly fine with you deleting my comment, or not allowing it to post. As long as you’ve read it yourself, I'm alright if nobody else sees it - and I really *do* hope you read it. You deserve the praise. You're a great teacher, and you're doing a great job. The worlds of magic and cardistry could certainly do with a lot more people like you, sir. Thanks again for everything you do. 7️⃣🃏✌️
Then perhaps your grip isn't holding the ends of the deck stable enough. Remember it should be like a book or a paintbrush... where for each half.... one end is held securely (after squaring them)... and the other end is allowed to breathe more (where they interweave)
Like others you didn't explain where to push! I know that 😅 I don't think tilt the card is correct. If i can enter immediately with no tilt! Why tilt?😮 no sense just lose of time
Beyond useless hobby. Used to be able to do a bridge shuffle perfectly but after trying to do this I can’t even do that anymore. I just threw out my entire deck at this point. Waste of time. Doesn’t help that I was ALMOST able to do this trick but just couldn’t completely pull it off. Hate this trash. Never touching a deck of cards again.

EXCELLENT!

Glad it helped

is it that the card bends forward or backwards slightly and when you wiggle it slightly they start sequentially unbend
Beautiful ❤️
My nemesis. I read a trick and if it has the faro, I can't do it. This video looks like the cure.
thx for sharing
My pleasure
The trick is first start with 10 cards and build your way up
This is one of the best ways to get it down. I used 30 cards. It is so much easier getting the technique down with this method.
Will plastic cards work?
O maaaaaan, I've wasted so much time trying to solve this puzzle until that brush teq appear so thank you so much for saving my ass.
Wait so you’re supposed to exclude the Joker cards? I usually leave them in.
I always Faro traditionally cut cards from bottom up.
Yeah I agree they would faro easier in that direction, you're right. :) I generally wear the cards in (lots of shuffling, springs, faros, etc) for 15 or so minutes... and then they start to faro easy enough in both directions. I find myself wishing they printed Bicycles by default nowadays in Modern cut instead of Traditionally cut....
@@JasonParkerMagic most of the earliest instruction I found on Faro was for Standard/Modern cut cards, and this was never mentioned. Set me back weeks :-)
This is just brilliant.
I mean...absolutely top shelf.
I'm not here to promote myself, but let me just give you some context.
I wanted to try to raise money for charity, but I don't have any performing experience, and I'm broke. So on 01/01/2024, I started a RUclips channel and said "Hey, I'm gonna do a trick per day for every day of 2024 for charity, and if I don't finish, I'll get the word 'Failure' tattooed on my forearm."
Also...I'm not a magician.
Yes, that's insane.
Yes, I'm still going through with it.
So...the position that puts me in is that I not only have to _perform_ 366 magic tricks...I first have to *_learn_* 366 magic tricks.
But then, having begun, I realized that the most popular videos are actually tutorials. So now I have to learn things well enough and quickly enough that I can then _teach_ them.
So…that gets us to today, and to your video here.
One of my subscribers asked me to teach shuffles yesterday, so today I'm following up by teaching the Faro - which is how I found you.
As with most topics, sadly, there's a lot of really bad information and instruction. A lot of the videos basically come down to about two minutes of a person saying "This is how you Faro suffle - look, you just do this."
*But then I found your video.*
I'm sorry, I know I took a while getting to the point, but I wanted to be clear about the context, because this is important to me, and I'm commenting on more than just the outstanding quality of the video. I'm also commenting on you, specifically, as a magician, as a teacher, _and_ as a content creator. Trust me, you're well above average in all three categories.
This is just perfect, sir.
The video itself _is_ great. It's good quality, good focus, high definition and easy to follow. Both the cards and your hands are easy to see against the background, and your instructions are clear, concise and to the point, but still really helpful.
The introduction clip, where you slowed your performance down to ultra slow-motion and explained every detail of each step is absolutely genius. I was completely blown away.
That intro by itself is miles ahead of most tutorials, but then you went back and included some troubleshooting and general tips, too. I'll probably model a bit of my video around yours - as an homage, not an imitation, because I'll also be recommending your video in mine.
I genuinely don't know if I could have learned this from RUclips if I hadn't found your video. I have watched a *lot* of videos about the Faro shuffle in the last two days, and you can believe me when I tell you that there is nothing else out there that is anywhere _close_ to this good.
Like…if someone wanted to learn the Faro, but said they were only able to invest 15 minutes watching video, I would send them directly here and have no doubt that they would come away knowing the move.
Obviously fifteen minutes isn't enough to learn the move, it takes hours of practice, but this is genuinely the only 15 minutes of *actual instruction* that anyone should need.
Frankly, having seen this, I don't even feel like I need to make a Faro shuffle tutorial.
I mean...I'm still going to, because I have to post a video per day, but I don't feel like it really needs to be made anymore. 😂
And I know that you won't even notice a difference, since I only have 160 subscribers, but I'm gonna cite your video in mine, and provide a link to it. If people are genuinely trying to learn this and they happen across my video, I would be happy and proud to direct them to *_your_* video.
Honestly, thank you for this.
I have, of course, subscribed to your channel, and I will be spending my next few days watching as many of your videos as I can. I just can't wait to see what else you have to offer.
*Note*
I'm sorry for how long this is, and I'm sorry if it seems like I'm trying to promote my own channel - I really am just trying to compliment you. Your teaching style is, in my opinion, _incredible_ - it's informative and really helpful, but it's also engaging and highly entertaining. That's a rare talent, being able to teach people something in a way that lets them actually enjoy the learning process, and I just wanted to acknowledge that. I only mentioned what I have going on as a way to provide context for how many of these videos I've watched, how important this is to me, and just how rare you are as both a teacher and an entertainer.
But...I do get that it kinda reads like a promotion, so I'm perfectly fine with you deleting my comment, or not allowing it to post.
As long as you’ve read it yourself, I'm alright if nobody else sees it - and I really *do* hope you read it. You deserve the praise.
You're a great teacher, and you're doing a great job. The worlds of magic and cardistry could certainly do with a lot more people like you, sir.
Thanks again for everything you do.

Just a reminder to use an old deck of cards because a new set will get damaged in practice
Already hurt my dads new cards 😢
My cards must be too stiff, I can’t even get this process started.
Imma be honest this is way easier than riffling
Im having trouble with hand position and have no clue on what to do.
Forgot this was part 2 of this didn't realize but ik the part 1 helps with that.😅
That is cool
i can't get the cards to split around each other at all, not even a little, no matter how much pressure i put on them. i do not understand.
YEAHHH 🎉🎉🎉
I have just out-faro'd you. Your move.
Whenever I try to make the angle the cards move out of being flush :(
Then perhaps your grip isn't holding the ends of the deck stable enough. Remember it should be like a book or a paintbrush... where for each half.... one end is held securely (after squaring them)... and the other end is allowed to breathe more (where they interweave)
Ty for tip
Witchcraft!
Faro shuffle is so hard
My pinkies are cramping from this
Reaction Magician in Britain's got talent 2023, please 🙏
This is so HARD oh my god...
Hey algo, help a brother out...
Thanks man! :D
Can I do it with an Uno card?
The cards stick together too much and i just look like a caveman banging 2 half decks together 💀
Ended up with ripped cards 29 hours and 50 dollars wasted
Like others you didn't explain where to push! I know that 😅 I don't think tilt the card is correct. If i can enter immediately with no tilt! Why tilt?😮 no sense just lose of time
cant do it still😢
I literally cannot interweave them no Matt what i do
hi
Two words : witch craft
My cards have been destroyed
Same 150 dollar cards destroyed
..because I m not good ;)
I think this one is definitely learnable! :)
@@JasonParkerMagic for any other human being than me ;)
Those who can't do it even after practising 4-5 months
👇
It did not work
Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Card porn, I Love it ❤❤❤
Beyond useless hobby. Used to be able to do a bridge shuffle perfectly but after trying to do this I can’t even do that anymore. I just threw out my entire deck at this point. Waste of time. Doesn’t help that I was ALMOST able to do this trick but just couldn’t completely pull it off. Hate this trash. Never touching a deck of cards again.
Gave up
NOBODY TELLS ME HOW TO FARO CARDS JUST USE YOUR WORDS AND TELL ME HOW TO DO IT IST SO ANNOYING ALL OF YOU
O😂 you failed with a brand new deck. Never teach you you can't angle the card in one shot?😅 are you a begginer?
