So, you’re enjoying the art of card flourishing? Perfect, today it’s another basic move, called „Scissors Cut“. My articles shall help and motivate cardists, especially the beginners. So to learn the scissors cut, just grab your cards and scroll down.
- You start in „Straddle Grip“(your thumb contacts the long side, your middle and ring finger the opposite side, whilst your index finger and pinkie are across from each other on the two short sides).
- Your thumb now moves to the lower left corner. There the thumb splits up about half of the deck.
- Move your thumb to the left as much as you can, whilst the other fingers are going slightly to the right. Your index finger is the rotation point.
- As soon as your fingers are completely extended, you can rotate the packet in between your thumb and index back to the right, but under the other packet. Now you just square up both packets.
Congratulations, you’ve now done a „Scissors Cut“. For me it was incredibly hard to learn this move, because in the beginning my fingers hurt due to the strain. But if you practice troughtout the day you will definitely master it.
