BoBo III
BoBo IIILV 5
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.

Kenneth Aidan Foo

Gearbox is a deceptively hard looking move that later reveals itself to be much easier than it seems. Gearbox features many spinning packets, and a unique final display. It is recommended to learn Sybil beforehand, but it is not striclty necessary.

Infinite Revolution is a modified version of Revolutoin cut, but the spinning never stops. It can simply go on forever or for "infinity" until the cardist wants to stop.

Prism
PrismLV 7
Andrew Avila

Prism is a modern classic flourish that involves constructing a complex card structure and rotating it around its own axis. The move is highly versatile, allowing for a wide variety of performances. Variations differ in the shape of the structure, the number of layered structures, or the ability to perform two independent Prisms simultaneously. The most common variations include: A prism-shaped structure. A rhombus. An "M"-shaped Prism (referred to by the creator as "prisM"). A tower made of permanently bent cards arranged in an alternating pattern (known as "Prismeme").
