X, this is rather just a general message. Just wanted to thank you for what you do. I've hobbied cards my whole. I'm bipolar depressive and my brain don't always work the way it should haha. Found your page about a month ago and you have given me a new focus and bag of tricks to fidget with to keep my head focused. And given me so many new ideas and approaches to things I was determined to master but was falling short. Thank you again for all you do.
Great to see this one. It's in one of the Inner Secrets books, and is an improvement Vernon had for the One Handed Erdnase Shift (so you're not in that weird position). I forget who it was, maybe Steve Dobson, but the way Steve (or whoever it was) talked about it... it could have been a potential solution to something Vernon said about how the Shift should be completed AS the hands come together. Probably just a story. Academically, it could be like how a one handed palm gives you more advantage to use the other hand for misdirection. However, it is visible as all hell. Carney uses the original Erdnase in his version of Walton's Smiling Mule in that old video of him at the Magic Castle. Forget the name. Looks awesome dude!
Wow, that's sick bro. I was thinking that since it's so hard to do in slow motion while explaining the technique, it would be really helpful to film it performed at regular speed, but then play it back in super slo-mo for the tutorial while you talk about the mechanics that are happening. Then you won't have to deal with the cards sliding around while you are explaining each little move. This is actually a good idea for a lot of the tutorials you guys do...
I use this straight after an Erdnase Shift to pass the packet over the top so I can bring the original top packet back to the top. It's smooth (after a ton and ton and ton of practice) and just looks like an Erdnase Shift into square up. I highly recommend putting the time in to link the two. Not only does if feel cool and look cool, this shift here can be easily hidden as you bring your hand in to square up the deck. I would also recommend not putting your little finger along the bottom edge of the deck. Try and get your little finger as far under the deck as you can and you will have much better, smoother control and speed.
I had to pause the video around 0:30. I've seen this move done by you casually in some video already, no longer remember which one. It looked easy, but when I started trying to do it myself just after watching you do it on repeat, I realized it only looked simple. It's so much more interesting than your typical Charlier Cut used by most as a move in passing. I progressed a bit since I started attempting this move, but I'm glad I'll finally see it from close-up with your tutoring, because it should allow me to improve the handling a lot. Thanks, Xavior! Now I can resume the playback. :) Edit after watching: I don't think there is a need to use it as a pass. It's just a great move in passing, or a fidget move, if you prefer. It simply looks good and when done well, like in your case, it even has its elegance.
Thanks for this! After seeing this on other vids of yours, I bought World's Beyond as you said that's where it's from. But this is much easier to follow!
Been messing with this for a day now. An idea is to establish the flesh break when the packets are put back together. Would eliminate the transition between the pinkey break and the flesh break. And I'm finding the smaller the flesh break the faster the transition. And the actual movement of the packets appears less.
Great job! I watch your videos regularly: I like them. I will see you in Vegas in August at magic live. I will be asking for an autograph. Can’t wait! Marlo fan here.
Savior! I saw you do this during your raise rise tutorial and since then sources this move in the Vernon chronicles (didn’t know this video existed) and have been dying to try it since, thanks for the video!
Cool video, and always good to work on a move as it adds to our pool of sleitghts and makes fingers work their independance. That pinky wiggle is the proof that we the mere mortals needed to believe Xavior is only human despite the talent he has and the hard work he does. :)
really good tutorial I love one handed cut to make it as a contol but this move is like a cut but faster so thank you very much :) and the cuntrol that you did in the end of the video is dope btw
Exavior I have watched your lecture 10 times short rage transpo raise rise and some of the other routines such as the sandwhich one are ridiculous quote mr Obley
Dam bro that is so DOPE I bought raise rise week later from relase and I still can’t preforme it now I saw this EPIC pass and I think Raise Rise will have to wait great job on the video on all of your work please keep it up and I hope we will meet one day in person
Team Marlo all the way. Still working on your cover pass. It ain't pretty...yet. When are you coming out with your own Deck of cards, X-Man? I would DEF by (at least) a Brick.
This is really cool!! Best pass if performing parlor or for a lot of people. Love the behind the spectators back idea! What part of Texas will you be lecturing at?
X, sorry to keep commenting lol. But this is the latest video and the only way I know to get ahold of ya. You've inspired me to think outside the box. Been working on a control lately I wanna run by you. I've searched everywhere and don't see anything similar. Is a very bold and angly control but haven't been caught by the lamen. And looks very very clean in my opinion. Is there anywhere I could send my presentation to, so you could give me an expert opinion and functionality of it?
Jacob Callwood we'll see. Live in the middle of nowhere USA so really have no one to run things by or get advice. Just a few books and UA-cam. Makes it hard.
i feel like i could get the same efect with a simple one handed cut and one up it with a chosen card and a dps to get the brake but it would be angley best for one on one top down veiw thanks x for inspiering me to think of my own way for preforming
Some times its cool to learn moves just for the sake of it, i know the tenkai palm but i never use it, its good to know some stuff, its gotta be fun to perform too!
I love those shirts, but in I don’t think you can wear them in schools in the USA. Because both Marlo and Vernon are holding cigars. Bummer. Still want one though!
Could you do a tutorial on the rear palm as explained in Expert Card Technique? I've read it a ton of times and can't get a feeling for how it works in motion. I've looked around for a video where someone good at it shows it in action, but no dice.
So I guess your take on the side pass from Worlds Beyond? If my knowledge is correct. edit: Didn't watch the entire video so I just realised you made that reference at the end.
Probably shouldnt try this without a good pinky count... Trying it anyways XD Im finding it hard to keep the break on the pad of my thumb as i start the pass. ill get there =D
Jay Quek I use it as a pass when I hold the deck in my left hand, and bring my right hand over to grab the deck from above, and as my hand is over top of it I do the shift. It's easier to use it that way, but without being pretty decent at the Charlier people might notice the deck drop a little bit before you grab it. The other option is as he said in the video about the pass he just taught: use a little misdirection and you should be good.
Original playa from malaysia, you can use the charlier pass in instances where you want to show a spectator to your right one card, and make it appear to show the same card to the spectator to your left, but doing the charlier in the motion so spectator 2 sees a different card. However you want to use that idea. Hamfam.
lol i thought i was gonna see a charlier, i prefer the stratos grip for my pass anyway so i tend to agree even tho my charlier still look better then my one handed pass! ROFL
I like charlier, but think it's more obvious from a spectators view (although admittedly I can do it a lot faster). Gonna give this a go for a couple of weeks see if I can speed it up
The charlier cut has a larger action. It's best used in gambling cheats as you grab a sip of beer or chucking in chips. The charlier is/was sometimes used and covered by whipping the arm (most likely whipping cigarette ash) but it is ALOT more obvious and in a high stake game where they are going to be cheating it won't work. The shift he is teaching now can easily be covered and has reasoning. Back 30-50 years ago this was one of the big things that determined the amateur cheats from the professional cheats. Although I usually use it as a showoffy' trick or just a mess around thing.
I can't see any advantages to this over a Charlier. Both talk, both are big. The amount of cover you need in order to pull this off would easily cover a Charlier too. And the Charlier is much easier.
X, this is rather just a general message. Just wanted to thank you for what you do. I've hobbied cards my whole. I'm bipolar depressive and my brain don't always work the way it should haha.

When Xavior says the move is "super hard" I shit my pants a little.
Great to see this one. It's in one of the Inner Secrets books, and is an improvement Vernon had for the One Handed Erdnase Shift (so you're not in that weird position).
I forget who it was, maybe Steve Dobson, but the way Steve (or whoever it was) talked about it... it could have been a potential solution to something Vernon said about how the Shift should be completed AS the hands come together.

Carney uses the original Erdnase in his version of Walton's Smiling Mule in that old video of him at the Magic Castle. Forget the name.
Looks awesome dude!
Dude no come on, I just STARTED learning the classic pass..
Wow, that's sick bro. I was thinking that since it's so hard to do in slow motion while explaining the technique, it would be really helpful to film it performed at regular speed, but then play it back in super slo-mo for the tutorial while you talk about the mechanics that are happening.

make a video bro i would love to see it. no need to tutorial would just like a peek!
Nice little fidget move for sure, also i cant wait for some new stuff to be released on lost art!! Love your stuff buddy
I had to pause the video around 0:30. I've seen this move done by you casually in some video already, no longer remember which one.

I’m going to learn this to use as an exercise to strengthen the hand muscles
Best thing a magician can learn on UA-cam..... thank you spade for giving us this gem....
Thanks for this! After seeing this on other vids of yours, I bought World's Beyond as you said that's where it's from. But this is much easier to follow!
Wow, great video. I've seen things like this before and it's always interesting to see those packet pulls with the thumb.
Nice move!! Thanks for sharing! Loved it.
Been messing with this for a day now. An idea is to establish the flesh break when the packets are put back together. Would eliminate the transition between the pinkey break and the flesh break. And I'm finding the smaller the flesh break the faster the transition. And the actual movement of the packets appears less.
Great Xavior… you are a great card teacher..👍
0:30 WHY IS ITHIS SO ODDLY SATISFYING??!!
I recently broke my wrist and I've got pins and a bulky purple cast on my right arm and ive been practicing one handed moves so this is killer!
LOL I want to just charlier while my hand is covered and call it a day, but okayyyyyyyy. Dope video!
This is really cool, im perfecting this for sure, iam a bit crazy about one handed stuff
That s a great pass xavier. Thanks
Yeah wanna moreeeee. Great job man.
Great job! I watch your videos regularly: I like them. I will see you in Vegas in August at magic live. I will be asking for an autograph. Can’t wait! Marlo fan here.
Nancy Anderson how old are you?
That's brilliant! Just have to hide or misdirect it and BOOM!! You've made the change. :D
Savior!
I saw you do this during your raise rise tutorial and since then sources this move in the Vernon chronicles (didn’t know this video existed) and have been dying to try it since, thanks for the video!
Damn Xavior love these transitions in vids as well as the magic. It’s soo dope #SPADEFAM
Cool video, and always good to work on a move as it adds to our pool of sleitghts and makes fingers work their independance. That pinky wiggle is the proof that we the mere mortals needed to believe Xavior is only human despite the talent he has and the hard work he does. :)
Jo, you did this so often in your Raise Rise Tutorial.
you do this move a few times on the xavior's rise tutorial! ^^ (great job btw..) greetings from Brazil!
it's like a reverse Charlier?
None of this makes sense so I'm going back to the basics...
Thats genialt. Thanks for showing this !!!!
Would be dope to see you on Fool Us!
this move can be done in alot of situations. thanks xavior u the best dude
No idea of an application for this, but I guess I'll have to learn it first
This is very cool! Thanks for teaching it for free :D
damn thats crazy,,, you are awesome ...
really good tutorial I love one handed cut to make it as a contol but this move is like a cut but faster so thank you very much :) and the cuntrol that you did in the end of the video is dope btw
Exavior I have watched your lecture 10 times short rage transpo raise rise and some of the other routines such as the sandwhich one are ridiculous quote mr Obley
This is so fucking lit I’m definitely gonna practice this for years
Dam bro that is so DOPE I bought raise rise week later from relase and I still can’t preforme it now I saw this EPIC pass and I think Raise Rise will have to wait great job on the video on all of your work please keep it up and I hope we will meet one day in person
Team Marlo all the way.
Still working on your cover pass. It ain't pretty...yet.
When are you coming out with your own Deck of cards, X-Man?
I would DEF by (at least) a Brick.
If you have a real clumpy deck laying around that sucks for most tricks, it's actually easier to practice this with a clumpy deck.
basically its just a wierd hard charlie cut
Not really
Finally teaching this thank u so much
Takumi takahashi has a nice one handed pass where he throws the pack up and flips it holding a break
Master of Magic normal people do
the dude is amazing
Great lesson!
This feels a lot like the cardini one handed cut
Great tutorial - thank you.
The more the merrier
I loved it thx spade
This is really cool!! Best pass if performing parlor or for a lot of people. Love the behind the spectators back idea! What part of Texas will you be lecturing at?
Sees spade ♠️ made a video clicks out of work to watch 😆 door video
X, sorry to keep commenting lol. But this is the latest video and the only way I know to get ahold of ya. You've inspired me to think outside the box.

Jeremiah Findlay i hope he gets back to you and watches what you have....
Jacob Callwood we'll see. Live in the middle of nowhere USA so really have no one to run things by or get advice. Just a few books and UA-cam. Makes it hard.
Jeremiah Findlay would you mind sending me a video? I can probably give you some help... @fingerprint.trick on instagram
nice to see you do a videon on this move i saw it in xavier´s rise and ive been trying to do it ever since. thanks
Think of..... A top change moment Yayeah xD
Like : "... hold out your hand.... No a lil higher...." and bam!!! The move is done xD
Really like this move thank X. 😎
You can use it as a expert at the card table method for retaining the deck after a cut while you square up the deck
It comes from the gambling world, so... yeah...
Well I gotta learn this now 🙃
please do a video on 2nd deal tutorial
It's unreal maaaan
This a bit easy to me but very fun to practice
i feel like i could get the same efect with a simple one handed cut and one up it with a chosen card and a dps to get the brake but it would be angley best for one on one top down veiw thanks x for inspiering me to think of my own way for preforming
Some times its cool to learn moves just for the sake of it, i know the tenkai palm but i never use it, its good to know some stuff, its gotta be fun to perform too!
Will you be at Magic Live in Vegas. If so, I hope to meet you my Brother!
Since you will be there, I'm putting in a request for a selfie with you my Brother!
I love those shirts, but in I don’t think you can wear them in schools in the USA. Because both Marlo and Vernon are holding cigars. Bummer. Still want one though!
great tutorial
I used to do this with the first two cards, I thought it could be amazing to do as a one handed pass for fun... Thanks!
i think it can be used as a ambition card routine reveal idkk just suggesting
Could you do a tutorial on the rear palm as explained in Expert Card Technique? I've read it a ton of times and can't get a feeling for how it works in motion. I've looked around for a video where someone good at it shows it in action, but no dice.
Jason Koppelman I believe Michael Vincent goes over the rear palm a bit in his Penguin Live Lecture
My Name Thanks, I'll look it up.
luv ya bruh!!!
hey xavior, are you gonna be at fantasma this saturday?I might take that 4 hour drive
Too good spade, too good
So I guess your take on the side pass from Worlds Beyond? If my knowledge is correct.
edit: Didn't watch the entire video so I just realised you made that reference at the end.
What’s your favorite brand of sunglasses?
I'll just use it as a one handed cut
I found the best Double lift in steranko on cards today.its better than pinky count and dl
Lol no way on this earth could I do that.
For me the setup (moving to the fat of the thumb) is the hardest part..lol..
What's the music at the very beginning?
Probably shouldnt try this without a good pinky count... Trying it anyways XD
Im finding it hard to keep the break on the pad of my thumb as i start the pass. ill get there =D
toooo hard for me
Dope af
this move helped me to finally get the mechanics of the classic pass :D
Insane but awesome...
Im curious, how is the charlier used as a pass?
Jay Quek I use it as a pass when I hold the deck in my left hand, and bring my right hand over to grab the deck from above, and as my hand is over top of it I do the shift. It's easier to use it that way, but without being pretty decent at the Charlier people might notice the deck drop a little bit before you grab it.

X Are you team Marlo or team Vernon?
yes baby
Its fucking awesome 👍😎
lol i thought i was gonna see a charlier, i prefer the stratos grip for my pass anyway so i tend to agree even tho my charlier still look better then my one handed pass! ROFL
Where can I use this move ?
Hey X, the cards slip from my thumb every time and I just grab the top and bottom cards while the rest slide out
Help?
Me too
Badass
just a taught , why not do a charlier cut ?
I like charlier, but think it's more obvious from a spectators view (although admittedly I can do it a lot faster). Gonna give this a go for a couple of weeks see if I can speed it up
The charlier cut has a larger action. It's best used in gambling cheats as you grab a sip of beer or chucking in chips.

Back 30-50 years ago this was one of the big things that determined the amateur cheats from the professional cheats.
Although I usually use it as a showoffy' trick or just a mess around thing.
Yeah, what these people said.
I thought this was only a myth 😱😱
loved it
Well, a really fast charlier cut would do the same thing
But not so easy to do a break
Nice. Im blessed that i was able to do this move on my 3rd try...
I can't see any advantages to this over a Charlier. Both talk, both are big. The amount of cover you need in order to pull this off would easily cover a Charlier too. And the Charlier is much easier.
Nice
When’s the next live stream bud?
I cant even do the cover pass
