In order to understand and appreciate the art of cardistry combos, one must gather knowledge of as many moves as possible. Simplicity and practicality plays an important role when you're combining and/or improvising. Through the years, we've come across many different utility moves with different appearance and levels of simplicity. One we always come back to is Legolove by Nikolaj Pedersen. It is based off the classic Molecule rotation using the corners, and was first taught in the "Dynamite" tutorial series from 2011. It has become a part of our cardistry subconscious, and is a must-learn for every modern cardist. Sit back, grab a pack of cards, and learn Nikolaj's Legolove.

Pincho is a minimalistic one-packet twirl created by Oliver Sogard. A small pack of cards is clipped between two fingers and then rotated - seemingly without any effort - around the index. The simple nature of this move allows you to add your own personal style and is why many cardists consider Pincho to be one of the best combo moves out there.

Created by Oliver while learning Trigger.

A move where a card or packet spins around one of its corners using finger pressure.

A thumb cut is a simple one-handed cardistry cut where the thumb lifts or pushes a packet of cards away from the deck, separating it from the main packet. The packet is then moved, rotated, or dropped back to complete the cut. This is one of the moves that is most affected by your hand size. If you are having trouble pulling this move off, try doing it with 3/4 of the deck.

Snake Cascade is a move where the cards smoothly drop into the palm in a snake-like motion. It has incredible flow when performed correctly.

The move is inspired by Kryptonite by Dan & Dave and Revolution 3 by Brian Tudor
