On the other hand, I really don´t like Brian Tudor videos. His material is very repetitive, two much two handed cuts (as well as Dan & Dave). Also Tudor is not a good teacher at all, so I wouldn´t recomend his videos.
But if you´re interested on sybils and endless similar variations of two hand cuts he might be your solution.


Well I have The Heckler by Mr Tudor and it rocks. The instruction is fine, and his technique is truly awesome.

Don't hold his lack of personality against him. 90% of "magicians" have the same ailment. By and large they are very colourless people whether they are performing or not.

Personally, I prefere the one handed overhand shuffle to the one handed riffle or faro shuffle. The one handed overhand shuffle is just a serries of sissor cuts. It is very flashy and pretty easy to do (easier than most other one handed methods).

I don´t want to offend but the one handed overhand shuffle you say SHOULD BE known as "running scissors cut" because that´s exactly what it is. I mean it really doesn´t look like an overhand shuffle because the normal move (two hands) is by "stripping" blocks of cards parellels to the rest of the deck and not in a circular motion as in the scissors cut.

The REAL one handed overhand shuffle is actually VERY HARD to do and it is explained on Jerry´s encyclopedia of playing card flourishes.

By the way, the one hand faro is hard to do but it is more impressive and smooth.
