There's easier ways of doing it. Left hand on the bottom, right hand on top with index and pinky keeping the cards squared. Corner of cards in right hand come in at an angle and you just work it in with hardly any pressure. You don't even need to push the middle with and index finger. I learned it in less than a day, and got it constantly within 3 days, now I don't even need to look at the cards.
omg i dne it first tym lol mate if ur still using your channel i need some tips on the hot shot cut tutorial ....cnt do tht bit with my lil finger...if anyone else can help feel free to reply to my comment it would be much appreciated
Wow first 3 times i done it was almost a perfect one :) there was one card out of place on all 3 times but fuck yea thats a fun shuffle... That now also helps with one of my card tricks :)
There are a few ways of performing this shuffle, but let me say right now, that this is the best I've seen. I've been practising card magic for over a year and can perform perfect riffle shuffles and fluent overhand, hindu and false shuffles, but i've never managed to do this shuffle.
I saw this video, did it right first time, and now can't not do it right!
@norbac88 that was my reaction on my firs time too. I started counting to see how many I could get, and I only managed 20 in 2 weeks. It was frustratingly hard. Practice it and you will have it consistent. You would be surprised at the results.
i was getting consistant fairly even ratio shuffles after about 45 mins.. was using standard 808s and destroyed 3 decks.. picked up my black ghosts and boom were flowing nicely.. i guess the cards REALLY do make a difference for these sorts of shuffles.
Nobody "cracks" a perfect faro in 5 minutes - or a week. A perfect faro means deck split evenly, 26/26, and cards woven perfectly with no clumps of two or more cards. It takes months of practice to do it consistently and unerringly and anyone claiming otherwise is talking nonsense.
I had to try over 10 times before i got it since i aM 11 and the cards were plastic coated. oh and one tip, when you do the faro shuffle, to speed it up, make the edge of the left half faace the back of the other half and wriggle your way. up and down and up and down.
@Drenson1609 Its Faro. But perhaps you didn't notice "Faro" and "Pharao" sound very similar. And if you would've bought the trilogy, you'd notice that it IS Faro.
Thank you so much for this video. I have been struggling with this technique for about a week but using your technique I got it immediately. You also have a very nice voice and sense of humor.
well,, i say it is not that hard once you get the technique.. i just discovered this shuffle out of boringness.. and perfect it within 20minutes.. but anyways, one tip is that you might want to put a little force on your right hand to create the alternating card sequence.. really cool shuffle.. nice tut..
Not a perfect shuffle. The cards MUST be cut at exactly 26. Your shuffle had a different number in each packet resulting in what's called a Straddled Faro Shuffle.
holy shit dude.. got this on my 5th go after watching this tute.. its not perfect.. but its a better attempt then my go at the riffle shuffle.. THANKS HEAPS!
im just wondering and i dont mean to sound like a ass but, how hard of a time are people having with this shuffle, i got it on my like 4 or 5 time and by my tenth i had it perfect 90% of the time, is that abnormal?
This is because I told you exactly how to do it. I'm pretty sure he had to learn through trial and error that there needed to be an angle, twist, and a certain hold in order to do it correctly and that would take quite a long time. Also, with card flourishes, it's really a hit-or-miss thing on how easily you'll get it so take that into consideration. Personally, I did it right on my second try but I would've never guessed how to hold it or angle it if he hadn't mentioned it in this tutorial.
This video was REALLY helpful (though I didn't get it on my first try) it took me couple of tries to do it, but I amazed myself. I was like, "whoa!!! I did the faro!" 5stars, great tutorial!
this is a good beginners video.. this is how i started.. but once u get the shuffle perfected, u dont need to bend the cards and push down on the corners..
getting them to interweave is one thing, hitting the perfect faro everytime is a totally different ball game. you didnt hit the perfect faro in either one of the demos, unless a card was missing from the deck. and tkmagics, im willing to put a years wages on you not hitting a perfect faro everytime on your first go, thats just a ridiculous claim!
"Never get a hand modeling job.." actually, the black on black make you hands and card easy to see...make it better to see what going on...great job on the vid and thanks.
I don't know y u are saying that it took you long to master it:| . When i first found out of this shuffle i did it almost perfectly in one try. Oh, and for the beginners: If u want to learn it quicker do it with a new deck.
i tried it with my old deck n it didn't work out very well but when i bought a new one it worked very easily so i would recommend a new deck for this one
