Thin Spring is a variation of the Spring, in which cards are released from the right hand into the left hand (or vice versa), forming a clean straight line in the air. During the move, the cards remain parallel to the ground while traveling between the hands.
At Cardistry World 2026, Samuel shared that a Scam School video on how to drop a card inspired him to create Destiny.
Spring is a fundamental cardistry technique where cards are released into the air in a controlled burst, used by both cardists and magicians. It relies on diagonal pressure built within the deck and released through the thumb. The move is widely used due to its high level of control, its versatility in use (it's required for e.g. LePaul Spread, Pressure Fan, Under Pressure Fan, and Antifaro), and its relatively low difficulty.
Anaconda, known as The World’s Longest Dribble is a classic aerial flourish. It creates a long, snake-like column of cards in the air, which then is controlled as it falls into the other hand. In general, the larger the “snake”, the stronger the visual impact.
Backdrop is a simple flourish in which a single card is launched horizontally through the air from one hand to the other. The card is held under tension created by the index, middle, and ring fingers, secured by the thumb and little finger, then released with the little finger. The move is often combined with ATM as a clean and visually striking finisher. Created when Kevin was exploring the idea of shooting a card from the back-palm position. It was first introduced in his 2012 One-Card EP and was later added as the closer for Revolver.
Dropout is a fun and easy combo move which enables you to retain one or two cards in your hand after dropping a packet. It was first featured in Oliver's video 'Offhand' and has since become popular due to its practicality. Credits to Paul Harris for the Simple Switch and to Lonnie Dilan's for his move Bionic (the one card clip using the index and middle finger).
