Smile Redo Of "Scorpid Display"

Hi! I´m new here on decknique, but i´m having fun already
I´ve been into cards for about 8 months, and xcm, in a 2 and a half.
This is a small routine, where i include my own: "Scorpid Display" which is a 9 packet Werm variation (but you can only see 8 of it)
EDIT: Redid, hope you like this better. BTW didn´t include the "Impossible Deck switch" in this one lol. The closer of the display didn´t end up as i hoped..

Enjoy:

Haha, was I suppose to provide my own music? To me, finding music that goes in time with the flourishes in the video is a big thing, and not only did you not do that, you had none at all. The video started playing and I thought I had gone permantly deaf, until I did that quad helix move beside my ear. That sybil at the end looked like you cut some footage and hit the loop button 2 or 3 times.

The werm variation was pretty not bad, but we've all seen a million of them, and... the only thing I liked about the video, that I actually like a lot was the pressure fan, that's good man.
Although I can see your only like 3 or 4 years old or somthing so I'd suggest you don't post any more video's for a while, since the description under performance video's is "Polished cardistry only please"... but.... your definetely on your way, I wish I had started as young as you. 2/5

If you want to make more video's like this I would reccomend submitting them to 'Theory11.com'

sorry didnt like it due to the fact that it was unsmooth needed loads more practise, and there was a worm variation in it, the best bit was when it ended. na just kidding man not bad i liked the fans keep it up .

If you had read the description before watching it, you wouldn´t have got that scared, when the vid started.

And yes i looped the sybil at the end, it says that on youtube, but forgot to write it in here....

2/5 It wasn't completely awful

The display was ok but It look really messy like your just trying to cram packets.

my advice to someone as new as you is practice for a year before you release another video.

Yeah I was like " didn't he start out with a ghost deck?" when I saw the fan backs then I had to rewatch it to see that it was edited.

deck change..lol ok anyways, your hands make the cards look like a jumbo deck, i'm actually kinda impressed you could even do sybil at all with those tiny paws. Your fans are definitely beautiful and your cut display wasnt bad but it wasnt good. It looked to me like you got the steps down but you didnt have much style and looked a little tense. I'd say another 3-4 weeks of good practice on that cut and you'll be much better at it, but you really need to come up with a better way to close it, put a little flare like a packet flip or rotation in there. and i probably wouldve given you 3 stars but as previously stated USE MUSIC....2/5 keep up the good work though. p.s. can you do under pressure? your fans are in great shape and its an easy eddition to your bag o tricks, plus its beautiful.

It´s about 2 or 3 weeks since i posted this, and i will do a redo soon, which should be a lot better. Without the deck change...

Actually i just shot some footage, and then i realised that i was doing the same thing with the ghost and the tally, so i gave it a try, put the 2 clips together, and it worked very well i think.


Oh and i hope you will like the redo more than this

Edit: Already came up with a new closer on the display, looks much better imo.
