Stuart Gordon Flourish [Performance & Explanation]

Here's a little flourish I like to do for fun once in a while. It's a little difficult, so it's mainly directed at move monkeys or you crazy flourishers out there! =D

Note: I was told that this is very similar to the Jones Change. Please do know that I did not copy it, as I don't know how that change is done exactly, as I did not bother to learn it.

This is also not the Stuart Gordon Flourish by Yoann (FleGz); I have purchased his Stuart Gordon Flourish in his "3 Moves" video download and it wasn't for me, which made me come up with this.

Enjoy! =)

@liamacig I have purchased Yoann's SG flourish before, and his method wasn't for me, which is why I made my own. Please confirm the similarities of the move before you claim something blatantly.

@DEFThands08 exactly! Its the Jones change without the change. Besides how is that "very, very difficult" ? Are you familiar with the sybil? the leno cut? madonna-style cuts?

i've spent a lot of hours getting this and now i can do it relatively well, can't wait till i have it perfectly and can use it in performance

[lostsoulparty]

wow this is so hard, i'm only just starting to get into flourishing but i feel this could really complement my double lifts so i'm not giving up yet

Nice move. By two little 'accents' I'm approaching a 100% succesful execution of this. The hardest part is letting the cards fall in perfect rotation. By momentarily bending the cards between the middle finger and palm (in video at 2:10) the cards stick together better. The second help is to not only drop the cards but also give them a gentle push inward at the bottom edge with the middle finger as you let go.

What if my hand is too small to even perform the very first part of the first twirl? 1:12

I believe that you came up with this by yourself, but I'll admit. The motions are very much like the Jones Change - however the timing is different in your version. Thanks for sharing this - I also have a double based on stuart gordon up =)
