Your tutorial on the lepaul spread lead me to look up the virtuoso cards which lead me to a bunch of cardistry videos and I still watch your channel for flourishes because of your teaching style. Thanks a lot Chris
When Thomas Edison tried and failed nearly 2,000 times to develop the carbonized cotton-thread filament for the incandescent light bulb. And when asked about it, he said "I didn't fail; I found out 2,000 ways how not to make a light bulb," but he only needed one way to make it work.
Chris you inspired me to start cardistry! I recently went through ACL surgery and to keep my self busy for weeks of being in bed I thought of doing magic tricks. Went on UA-cam and the first card video I saw was yours and you really inspired me to pick up the cards. Your videos are so entertaining and fun to watch because of your personality, I really love it. Now I'm hooked to my cards 24/7. I barely use my phone now, my mom used to yell at me saying stop using your phone and now it's stop using your cards lol. Thank you again for introducing me to my new love and passion and please never stop making videos it really makes me happy and want to learn more. Thank you again. Lots of love and God bless.
One thing that seems to really help mean clean up moves is to step away for a while and come back fresh. A small break can really makes a difference. Also for some reason switching up the deck seems to change the mechanics a bit. Each of my decks act a little different. Could just be phycological, but I thought I would share.
How to start cardistry: open up School of Cardistrys youtube channel and start from their first video "grips". Then progress forward. The most important tips i have for beginner cardists: 1. Only focus on the moves you actually like. Otherwise you'll end up wasting your time. 2. Find a community. If you dont have cardist friends irl head over to reddit or discord, the community is the most important thing about cardistry. Without the community, I would've quit over a year ago.
Love that you mention hand size. A regular bicycle deck almost dwarfs my hands, and at first it was a struggle to even shuffle a deck. Can’t wait to learn more.
Your last part about your mind practicing even when you're not is 100% spot on. We are learning about mindfulness techniques in my cognitive psychology class. Pro athletes use it all the time. Lots of studies have shown it's effectiveness.
Just ordered my first set of cards, was inspired by your videos and ordered your red knights.. Looking forward to trying out this cool sport. Already into flower sticks and throwing knives, this will complete my trifecta..
I started cardistry for a Halloween costume and I had about 3 months to prepare. I'm still very much a beginner but I never thought I would become so addicted to something I just wanted to check out. Thanks for all the help Chris!
I’m just a 62 year old empty-nester Mom who LOVES close-up magic. Cards are my fave. Coins are great, too. But, CARDS! And I can barely shuffle. Then, online, I run into this CARDISTRY thingy! LOL! Never saw anything like it. Big props to all those who take the time, dedication, have the tenacity to be their best. I watch so much of it. LOVE YOUR CHANNEL, CHRIS! You’re very humble and mad with appreciation for other magicians and cardists. You are so fun and crack me up!
I can see the work you put on every video. So well made. Made me smile with the giant cards and the moves you made with them. Just that takes an effort people don't see at first.
The reason I started cardistry was because it looked really cool, and it looked like a very fun thing to learn. The first thing I learned was one of your cardistry videos, and after that I was hooked into it. I love it, and it is so much fun to do. Great video Chris.
Chris Ramsay is clear and his videos unlike others are very simple and entertaining. He has a great way of putting you in to your own comfort zone and level. Good videos, keep it up.
thanks for everything you do you've got me started i am a mechanic and take alot of the moves you've taught me and started doing them with nuts and bolts, gears, my favorite is a nut and bolt that "magically" screw together thanks
I watched your top 5 favorite decks of 2017 video just a few months ago. It was suck an intriguing video and you did a fantastic job on describing the cards. It was almost like I could feel what you were felling on each deck. So I bought a couple of your favorite and have learned a lot. I now have all your favorite decks except the smoke and mirrors private reserve and the Dan and Dave private reserve. I never thought in a million years I would be playin with cards like I do. You have gotten me through a lot and you just don’t know it. Peace!
Only just discovered this video. Really appreciated the nod to the yoyo/kendama community! I'm coming from yoyos myself over to cardistry and can't wait to learn.
Could you teach us the moves at 37 seconds and 23? Also I love the way you see cardistry and the moves that you create. You are a HUGE inspiration to me
Thanks Chris, like a lot of things, especially on youtube, half of making it look easy is not showing the part where it was really hard. One thing I found that helps me with problem moves is to make the moves very slowly at first, even using your other hand to help stabilize (in a one-handed cut) and to put the cards where they should be and you can then figure out where the cutting hand needs to be and why you keep dropping them. For me, it's usually a matter of where on the fingertip the corner/edge is. A 1/4 inch can be a big difference. Anyway, I started watching your videos to learn some magic tricks to do for my kids and such, but was always fascinated by cardistry, but mostly just to watch. Now the kids harass me for carrying cards everywhere because I also watched your cardistry vids and started wanting to learn more. Lastly, I have your Memento Mori cards and they are simply the best for fanning of all the cards I've used, just so smooth easy to distribute evenly. I hope you make more and do some that are all Ramsey, but closer to traditional card design - think Unchained or DB's Lions series, etc. Thanks again!
I started cardistry at 20th May 2017 (a year after the video liquid paper by the virts) after seeing that video, I fell in love with cardistry and I'm now 5 months into it and it's been a great experience so far. Tip: finger exercises help you really get better helped me too. Tell me what cut you want me to learn .( I'm into spinny things and comfy things)
It’s super interesting bc when I’m learning a new trick, a day after the first time I’ve practiced it, I can do it a lot better than the first time, even tho I haven’t even touched a deck of cards in abt 12h. It’s super cool how the brain processes the new information even when you’re not doing it
From as far back as I can remember I have loved cards. I got into dealing black jack and loving cards and the feel of them. I never knew there were other freaks like me out there and that this was a thing. YOU showed me I have a place in the world. Thanks to you I'm gonna start learning cardistry. Thank you for your passion.
I started cardistry when I saw you the first time. I got here from the german UA-camr MrTriXXL, and the first video I ever saw from you was the reverse waterfall tutorial. Since then I started practising, I dropped cards, I picked them up and started again. I'm still pretty terrible at cardistry but I keep doing it. I am actually filming a cardistry Video for my Instagram. So thank you Chris for being my inspiration. Thank You Chris for inspiring not only me, but a lot of people to keep doing what we love. Wir lieben dich Chris!
Cardisty is so much fun and i love it. I started out with a False Cut and i developed it into a flurish. Now i have Made three flourishes myself. They are simple but Mine...
Funny thing. Im not exactly a beginner but Im still pretty shit so I still watch your cardistry videos. Plus I like the vibe some of your moves have like hubble.
I'm watching this on my cousins account but thank you ,I've started with cardistry yesterday and was having trouble with the in hand riffle shuffle and you reminded me to think outside the box and i am better at it and I'm rocking my 15 year old life, thank you again
Chris great tip about practicing over a soft surface. I've started practicing sitting on the couch, with an ottoman in front with a blanket draped over my lap and the ottoman to catch all the cards I drop.
I have started practising since 2 weeks, i have the black tiger deck for one week now and I have practised the spring so much, the corners are becoming white..
Found your channel about a month ago, and now I'm learning cardistry, some magic tricks AND I just bought some puzzles, levels 1-8. So thank you for bringing this interest into my life
i love that you mentioned kendama and yoyos, which are the first skill toy type hobbies i got into when i was a little kid, and now im 19 and want to learn this shit
this is the challenge for me now! i feel natural playing darts with both hands and flip butterfly knives the filipino way in both hands. THIS and WRITING and GUITAR with the other hands is such a challenge! thank you for the inspiration papa Chris!
Your awesome. I just want to say I stumbled upon your videos on accident. And discovered a passion. Im not very good yet but I can't stop playing with cards. Thank you so much.
I just got myself a deck of cards and will try some cardistry. If I ever get the hang of it, you'll have given me the spark and support for starting. Thanks!
As someone who constantly fidgets, this weekend like the perfect hobby for me. I used to constantly switch my 7x7 Rubik's cube between checkered and ringed patterns, but this seems way more interesting
You... Your enthusiasm and presentation... Very positive... The more i practiced i realised it's very good tool to build dexterity and cognitive skills in students... Especially online
Man, I rarely comment on youtube videos because I know the content creator probably won't even see it. Which I totally understand. So I hope you do see this. I just want to say that your channel is awesome. I started watching because I am really interested in learning cardistry. So I did a search on youtube and I found your video where you show 3 basic cuts. From there I just kept watching your videos because I find you so engaging and I love your personality. Cardistry aside, you've sparked my interest in learning some magic. Wish you the best of luck with your channel and your career, and I hope you keep going with it. I've found you to be quite the inspiration, and I thank you for that.
Just started my journey into this universe. Thanks for the help and positive advise. I started looking into this since I thought it would be a great way to impress my little girl. I'm a musician but didnt want that to be the only way to impress her. She lights up every time I learn something new. Its really cool. Thanks again bro!
I know what pogs are. :) I yoyo, play knuckle rollers, begleri, and even a touch of kendama. I got a deck for cardistry, too. Love these skill toys. That being said, I really liked this video. It was really encouraging to me, and it really applies to any of the things I do above. Thanks.
I still have all my POGs. I'm so retro. Anyways, I was dabbling in cardistry after I learned a few card tricks back in school. Unfortunately, I shattered my right radius in a motorcycle accident and have lost dexterity and range of motion. It's ok though, I've got a fidget spinner. Thanks for the awesome videos!
Chris, I want you to know, I've spent sooooooo much money on Cardistry because you've inspired me to become a cardist. I'm really bummed I missed out on the pre-order of the 1st cards though.
I used to learn just random card tricks to impress my friends. One day, when I was learning a new trick, I noticed a video titled, "The best Cardistry compilation". This video blew my mind! From that moment on, I was hooked to cardistry.
I am not sure if the Sybil cut is Cardistry because it is a false cut actually but I was so happy when I learned to do it right. After a lot of practicing. I really love Cardistry. It looks awesome. I really like your style and how you handle the deck.
pogs yes lol Amazing what you still have and dont realize until Chris Ramsay says pogs and you instantly think .. I could win so many who wants to play!?
right on man i still have a bunch and it is actually not a bad concept for a game, but the biggest downfall is you need a little space to play so that thing are not interfering with other people. If i knew someone that would play id still play with the commons or duplicates but i love the art on them you cant find old artwork from that era very often that is intriguing except old magic cards but i new got into that unfortunately i guess lol
I saw my friend doing sybil cut and snap change and i became superinterested in cardistry and magic. Then i saw your tutorial to 3pac shakur and it was one of my first fluorishes. Thank u for that 👊💪
Im starting as soon as I get my cards haha. It's actually because of watching your videos. I've always been fascinated by it and wanted to get into a few years ago but I didn't know what it was called until now and you re-inspired me to get into it so thank you!
Hey chris just wanted to extend my thanks to you sir for these videos and your positive attitude aswell. Now i know this will sound cheesy but you indirectly motivated me to grab the decks once again. Fell in love instantly with cardistry and already doing one handed cuts and beginner flourishes. Im back at it again and also bought a killer bee deck. As soon as they arrive im more than certain that will motivate me even more. Thanks for your content, tutorials and reviews, keep it up.
Great tips and he's right. Especially when it comes to smaller hands. I my self have small hands and I thought the same as most ppl. But with the time and practice you can do it it's all about muscle memory and coordination.
Chris, I am one of your greatest fans and I love all of your works. Every one of my friend knows that I'm your fans. I am so happy that you upload this video for cardist and I am one of those. THX a lot, I'm going to support you to death.
I'm a guitarist, and i think every student I've ever taught has expressed concern that their hands arn't he right size/shape, it doesn't really matter much. I can also confirm the benefits of mental practice. I've been recovering from surgery for the last few weeks and practising music, mentally a few hours every day, and the results are kind of crazy.
Great vid Chris. Came across your tutorials by accident a few weeks ago (I was actually just looking for a “cool” deck of cards for Poker XD), and never knew anything about cardistry. But seeing you use something that to me at the time seemed so ordinary (playing cards) and transform it into a visually stunning artform really roused my interest. First deck i bought was the Memento Moris (they were just beautiful) and immediately got to practicing some moves. Currently have 4 in my collection and looking at getting the Knights next (Bicycles are actually pretty expensive where I come from. Figured i might as well get decks I really liked XD) Can’t wait for 1st’s release! Thank you for the inspiration! PS: Showed some moves to my gf and actually got her into cardistry now too. Now I’m buying decks for 2. So thanks for that :p
Practicing over the bed is the best tool I’ve been using. Because you don’t have to keep bending all the way down to pick up the cards every time you Drop a few. If they fall you can just pick them up where you stand. You might have to bend A little bit. But, it takes a lot of the frustration away.
I am first inspired by huron low.....and then by you.......i am searching for some beginner tips to start cardistry all over UA-cam..... i am glad that ended up my search here.......thanks chris.....hope you read this
I've only been practicing cardistry for a few months but can say that you are bang on, Chris. I've been an average to above average musician on multiple instruments since I was a kid in the late 70's (oy gevalt am I old) and the principles are the same. You have to retrain your hands to work and move in what feel to be unnatural ways. The first few months are pure hell at times :). But once you get your first flourish, lame and simple as it may be it's like the first time you play a simple but great song. I'm only about 60% successful doing a four packet Sybil but it feels like the first time I was able to play "Yesterday" without fucking up.
I just finished pen spinning for 2 years, learned almost every trick and can do any combo. I’m starting to get into cardistry. Its pretty good actually
Chris, I don’t usually get into the social things of UA-cam but today you get a like and comment simply for name dropping pogs! Still got my slammers to this day! 🥃
I’m thankful that I had come across some of your earlier cardistry videos. So thank you. As a result you’ve inspired me back into magic. One of the earlier books on mental practice or the mind theatre for training came from a plastic surgeon Maxwell Maltz Psyco-Cybernetics.
I've been following you off and on now for a couple months and think you do a great job not only as a teacher (is that the correct word?) but basically a cheerleader. "IF you are not enjoying it then move on to something else for a while" Easily one of the top 20 tips is to be sitting thus picking up the cards is much easier. IMHO tip 1 thru 10 is practice. Thanks for all your help and only a matter of time until you have your own special. Keep plugging dawg, I believe you are closer to the "Big Time" than you imagine. PEACE OUT I had to come back for an edit when I just noticed of right now 21 ignorant "sons-of-bitches" had given this a thumbs down. WTF. Wish I could apologize for humanity's stupidity but...
What made you start cardistry?! Share your story!
U, u made me
Chris Ramsay, u did!!!!!!
Frens!
I never knew what cardistry was till I saw your videos
Your tutorial on the lepaul spread lead me to look up the virtuoso cards which lead me to a bunch of cardistry videos and I still watch your channel for flourishes because of your teaching style. Thanks a lot Chris

Juho Vuorela sounds great thx
I agree, school of cardistry has a ton of videos. @Jaspas has skills!
What is so important about the cardistry community?
Juho Vuorela I
Benjamin Long nothing is necessarily important about it. Just a fun hobby
My hands are so tiny. Mad respect when you pulled out that big deck and still continued to do tricks. You’re great.
those giant cards were great lol
Love that you mention hand size. A regular bicycle deck almost dwarfs my hands, and at first it was a struggle to even shuffle a deck. Can’t wait to learn more.
"Start from anywhere" - advice that should be more common
Your last part about your mind practicing even when you're not is 100% spot on. We are learning about mindfulness techniques in my cognitive psychology class. Pro athletes use it all the time. Lots of studies have shown it's effectiveness.

whenever I get discouraged by my lack of progress in cardistry I watch this video ...
and it helps me every time
so thank you, master **bow**
I find this video very uplifting, not just in cardistry but life in general. Thanks for doing this vid!

Unfortunately, I shattered my right radius in a motorcycle accident and have lost dexterity and range of motion. It's ok though, I've got a fidget spinner. Thanks for the awesome videos!
6:49 I dropped my deck at the same time wtf
Chris, I want you to know, I've spent sooooooo much money on Cardistry because you've inspired me to become a cardist. I'm really bummed I missed out on the pre-order of the 1st cards though.
Does anyone know what the move at 0:33 is called?
I used to learn just random card tricks to impress my friends. One day, when I was learning a new trick, I noticed a video titled, "The best Cardistry compilation". This video blew my mind! From that moment on, I was hooked to cardistry.
Does anyone know the song used during the opening montage?
I am not sure if the Sybil cut is Cardistry because it is a false cut actually but I was so happy when I learned to do it right. After a lot of practicing. I really love Cardistry. It looks awesome. I really like your style and how you handle the deck.
lol.....Chris I remember pogs, also quick question how can I extend the life of my cards?
Okay I figured that's what he meant. But the way he said most of us wouldn't know what they were, I thought he said pawgs 😂
This helped me a lot .... I learned so many cardistry moves that i never thought i would never learn ... Thanks a lot Chris.
pogs yes lol Amazing what you still have and dont realize until Chris Ramsay says pogs and you instantly think .. I could win so many who wants to play!?
Travis Westcott I forgot what they were until me and coworkers got talking about it a few months back and bought a bunch haha
right on man i still have a bunch and it is actually not a bad concept for a game, but the biggest downfall is you need a little space to play so that thing are not interfering with other people. If i knew someone that would play id still play with the commons or duplicates but i love the art on them you cant find old artwork from that era very often that is intriguing except old magic cards but i new got into that unfortunately i guess lol
New to the channel, late to the video, but very appreciative of this. And yes, Pogs were awesome! Had some wicked slammers.
7:00 I would like to learn that anybody knows what the move is called?
Elionexis just leaving a comment to see the answer
Judo flip from franco pascalli
Judo cut
Its called fuck this shit
Hey Chris I am Richard and lives in Holland and my inspiration comes from you and now I teach young people the art.
Thanks for the inspiration 🤘✌
2:05 Hehe.. Get it.. "Deck-sterity" xD
I saw my friend doing sybil cut and snap change and i became superinterested in cardistry and magic. Then i saw your tutorial to 3pac shakur and it was one of my first fluorishes. Thank u for that 👊💪
You can have all my decks if you reply Chris
Shhhhhh....If you do reply I'll just edit that bit out tbh
Such a dope beat at the beginning!!! Little hands have been the bane of my existence lol still gonna practice though.
What cards did he use?
Brush playing cards
A flat one
so encouraging to hear that you too felt rubbish at the start! Thanks man
YOU got me started Cardistry few monts ago with your videos and i love it... its like literally hand made potion for my brain ..thx brother Ramz
Im starting as soon as I get my cards haha. It's actually because of watching your videos. I've always been fascinated by it and wanted to get into a few years ago but I didn't know what it was called until now and you re-inspired me to get into it so thank you!
Hey chris just wanted to extend my thanks to you sir for these videos and your positive attitude aswell. Now i know this will sound cheesy but you indirectly motivated me to grab the decks once again. Fell in love instantly with cardistry and already doing one handed cuts and beginner flourishes. Im back at it again and also bought a killer bee deck. As soon as they arrive im more than certain that will motivate me even more. Thanks for your content, tutorials and reviews, keep it up.
Great tips and he's right. Especially when it comes to smaller hands. I my self have small hands and I thought the same as most ppl. But with the time and practice you can do it it's all about muscle memory and coordination.
First thing I learned was the Sybil cut and Ben Wade. Boy it felt good when I could do it smoothly for the first time!
Chris, I am one of your greatest fans and I love all of your works. Every one of my friend knows that I'm your fans. I am so happy that you upload this video for cardist and I am one of those. THX a lot, I'm going to support you to death.
btw, even you are a magician, I also do like all of your cardistry stuff
watching your videos i love your look and this all pick up cards 3 weeks ago and have had them in my pocket ever since
I'm a guitarist, and i think every student I've ever taught has expressed concern that their hands arn't he right size/shape, it doesn't really matter much. I can also confirm the benefits of mental practice. I've been recovering from surgery for the last few weeks and practising music, mentally a few hours every day, and the results are kind of crazy.
Great vid Chris. Came across your tutorials by accident a few weeks ago (I was actually just looking for a “cool” deck of cards for Poker XD), and never knew anything about cardistry. But seeing you use something that to me at the time seemed so ordinary (playing cards) and transform it into a visually stunning artform really roused my interest. First deck i bought was the Memento Moris (they were just beautiful) and immediately got to practicing some moves. Currently have 4 in my collection and looking at getting the Knights next (Bicycles are actually pretty expensive where I come from. Figured i might as well get decks I really liked XD) Can’t wait for 1st’s release! Thank you for the inspiration!
PS: Showed some moves to my gf and actually got her into cardistry now too. Now I’m buying decks for 2. So thanks for that :p
Practicing over the bed is the best tool I’ve been using. Because you don’t have to keep bending all the way down to pick up the cards every time you Drop a few. If they fall you can just pick them up where you stand. You might have to bend A little bit. But, it takes a lot of the frustration away.
I am first inspired by huron low.....and then by you.......i am searching for some beginner tips to start cardistry all over UA-cam..... i am glad that ended up my search here.......thanks chris.....hope you read this
I've only been practicing cardistry for a few months but can say that you are bang on, Chris. I've been an average to above average musician on multiple instruments since I was a kid in the late 70's (oy gevalt am I old) and the principles are the same. You have to retrain your hands to work and move in what feel to be unnatural ways. The first few months are pure hell at times :). But once you get your first flourish, lame and simple as it may be it's like the first time you play a simple but great song. I'm only about 60% successful doing a four packet Sybil but it feels like the first time I was able to play "Yesterday" without fucking up.
Do more videos like this, i want learn cardestry, and i prefer you. You are the most personly betifuful teaching magic hear on UA-cam. Congrats brow
Bro I still have some really sick Pogs. You’re officially the coolest guy on the net.
I just finished pen spinning for 2 years, learned almost every trick and can do any combo. I’m starting to get into cardistry. Its pretty good actually
Chris, I don’t usually get into the social things of UA-cam but today you get a like and comment simply for name dropping pogs! Still got my slammers to this day! 🥃
loved the way you did the intro the music complimented the flourishes really well
Thanks! I tried cardistry before and got frustrated. This has made me want to try again and keep at it.
I’m thankful that I had come across some of your earlier cardistry videos. So thank you. As a result you’ve inspired me back into magic. One of the earlier books on mental practice or the mind theatre for training came from a plastic surgeon Maxwell Maltz Psyco-Cybernetics.
man the intro is like cards dancing man!!
luv it!!!
I've been following you off and on now for a couple months and think you do a great job not only as a teacher (is that the correct word?) but basically a cheerleader. "IF you are not enjoying it then move on to something else for a while" Easily one of the top 20 tips is to be sitting thus picking up the cards is much easier. IMHO tip 1 thru 10 is practice. Thanks for all your help and only a matter of time until you have your own special. Keep plugging dawg, I believe you are closer to the "Big Time" than you imagine. PEACE OUT
I had to come back for an edit when I just noticed of right now 21 ignorant "sons-of-bitches" had given this a thumbs down. WTF. Wish I could apologize for humanity's stupidity but...
saw a video pop up in my recommended section and then fell in love with cardistry
