I've been doing card work for years. I love it.
But like so many, the Faros, shifts, steals and palms all seem learnable...
...but a truly natural DL has always evaded me. Getting the break with the thumb always seemed
horribly unnatural, a double push off always seemed only 80% accurate, a pinky count always looked awkward
and the snap double thing, well...the less said about the better.
So I was reading The Cardician by Marlo this morning and came across an extremely brief description of a DL
that struck a chord with me.
No breaks, no pushing off and with very little practice a high success rate.
So I put in an hour of practice and this is what it looks like so far:

1.) Does anybody know the name of this particular lift?
2.) If anybody does it, any tips?
3.) A random comments are welcome.
