Double Dribble Control
/1 Comment/in Sleight of Hand, Card Control Advanced /by AsadDescription
The Double Dribble Control is an efficient method for having two different cards selected and then controlled to the top of the deck. It’s a great move to have up your sleeve when you have 2 spectators and want to do a trick with more than just 1 card.

Kick Back Ditch
/0 Comments/in Sleight of Hand, Color Change, Other Advanced /by AsadDescription
I’m pleased to feature Jeremy Griffith as a guest teacher on 52Kards this week. He teaches a great utility move known as the Kick Back Ditch! This is a move that allows you to secretly lap a card. This can be used to make a card vanish, change into a different card, or to just steal a desired card away from the deck.

Description
This is one of the most direct false cuts I know. You will need to be good at the classic pass in order to do this, but once you have that down this is a great application for the move.
