Index Push Off
Index Push OffLV 1
Unattributed Cardistry

The Index Push Off is an easy, not so beginner friendly, One-Handed one card extension. It is fundamental for lots of flourishes and should be learned close to the start of one's cardistry Journey.

Nimbus is a cut consisting of three spinning packets. The move first debuted as part of the NB3 project (short for Nimbus, Bowtie, and 3D), released by Theory11 on its online store, and was later made publicly available on YouTube on October 4, 2013, through the Theory11 channel. If spinning the packets proves difficult, using a thinner deck or a partial deck is recommended.

Palm Shift Isolation
Palm Shift IsolationLV 2
Jaspas
2010

Palm Shift Isolation is a simple, fundamental isolation flourish that marked the beginning of isolation-based flourishes. A single card is held by its long edge with the fingers while the thumb slides it across the palm. The wrist is then rotated, allowing the fingers to regrip the card along its long edge and return to the starting position, ready to repeat the motion.

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.

Table Riffle Shuffle
Table Riffle ShuffleLV 3
Unattributed Cardistry

Table Riffle Shuffle is a professional, efficient card shuffling technique widely used in magic, casinos, and competitive card games. It is performed on a table surface by riffling the long edges of the cards. Unlike the standard Riffle Shuffle, this method is less prone to exposing cards to players, making the shuffle more discreet.

Overhand Shuffle
Overhand ShuffleLV 3
Unattributed Cardistry

Overhand Shuffle is one of the easiest and most common ways to shuffle a pack of cards. It's a great shuffle for magicians to use since lay people are already familiar with it, and because there are some great controls and false shuffles that can be done while shuffling the deck in this manner. The shuffle is commonly used in western countries. References The description above is adapted from the 52Kards video, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0J_487VquE
