Mantra
MantraLV 6
Tobias Levin

Mantra is one of the greatest one handed cardistry of all time. The move itself involves cutting a deck into two halves, then holding the lower packet in the lower part of your hand. The upper packet is then split into two using your thumb, simultaneously dragging out a single card out and then later combining the middle and lower packet together, flaring out the single card.

V-Cascade is a move that was first showcased in Liquid Paper by Virtuoso. It is featured in the introductory section of the video, ending roughly around the 10-second mark. The move begins with a faro shuffle, with the cards falling gracefully into the lower hand in a V-like shape.

Stands for "Kevin's First Cut". A very fun and easy flourish to get started with packet cuts.

Chase Duncan

BoBo III is a cut based on alternating rotations of two packets. The move begins by extracting the bottom packet with the thumb and little finger, then rotating it with the corner of the second packet. The second packet is subsequently rotated by extending the middle finger, which is then used once more to rotate the first packet and bring it to the top of the deck.
