Kickflip
KickflipLV 5
Joey Burton, Dan & Dave

The Kickflip Skater Cut (often refered to as simply Kickflip) is a variation of the Skater Cut by Joey Burton. In the original move, a packet is stripped out and stays static until it is brought back into the deck. In Dan & Dave's variation, the stripped packet performs a full 360 rotation, known as the Kickflip (Created by Dan & Dave). Hence why it is called the Kickflip Skater Cut.

B4CUT
B4CUTLV 4
Andrei Jikh

A signature move from the mind of Andrei Jikh, the b4 is a multi-phased cardistry sequence that demonstrates smooth, swift card handling. Taught in 12 minutes of detailed instruction by Andrei Jikh - and filmed in high definition in theory11's Las Vegas headquarters. A unique flourish that you will have fun learning and integrate into your cardistry arsenal. This move was originally created by Andrei as an entry into one of theory11's weekly Saturday Night Contests. Needless to say - he took home the prize.

The Birth of Ora Cascade The day started like any other until The Virts dropped their first Instagram video featuring the Virtuoso Launch Edition deck. Daren Yeow unveiled Waterwheel for the first time, and the cardistry world lit up. The move was hypnotic and instantly iconic. I was completely hooked. But I was also frustrated. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t nail the perfect one-handed faro Waterwheel demanded. After weeks of grinding, I finally decided to take a break from forcing it. In that downtime, I sat back and started thinking about creating something comfier and easier for myself. That’s when I decided to experiment from a regular cascade position, where a normal faro felt natural and controllable. Out of that session came what I originally called Orakusa. The move originally featured a “bloom” phase where the cards opened up beautifully before cascading down. I eventually removed the bloom because it shortened the cascade too much and hurt the overall flow. Over time, most people started calling it Ora. I completely forgot the original meaning behind “Orakusa” (it was that long ago), so I just rolled with it and quietly shortened the name to Ora Cascade. What began as a workaround for Waterwheel became one of my signature moves. A reminder that sometimes the best creations come from adapting to your current limits instead of stretching for perfection. - Zomb Tien

Eames is a flourish taught by Kyle Tran in the Fontaine Files, a compilation of tutorials for original flourishes by Fontaine members and friends. Eames is a flourish that builds a structure by rotating various packets around each other with a "building over" motion. Then it spins and the structure starts to collapse and it closes with a "bite" and spin to square up.
