Second Round

here are the requirements http://p210.ezboard.com/fsuperhandzfrm127....opicID=36.topic

Alright guys here's the Second round video, the theme is perching and this routine taught me a lot, especially how to get angry, and deal with it poorly (throwing stuff against the wall, including the deck, ripping things in half, including cards, pulling my hair out etc..)..
I'm terribly dissatisfied with it, and even though I still have all day to re shoot it, I decided to just send in this one, vuz I'm sick with this round already, was sick with it a week ago actually, and somehow managed to keep practicing..

next round I won't try and do so many aerials that I never tried before and somehow hope that i'll be able to learn them in 3 weeks tongue.gif

anyway here it is

Nice skillz, and a trippy finish!

Loved the disappearing guitarist!

Nice tricks. How long did they take you to learn?

I do hope you realise your video is 3 seconds too long.

you know what I think of it, though. ;)

Yeah i was also wondering if that trick he did behind his back was a cut or not?

Mind you i have 0 knowledge of XCM xD

Awesome though! *vjealous*

Yeah I just noticed that too, hope your still in. I really need to learn how to do a simple fan. They look easy but you need instructions on how to do then. That flipping the cards over on your arm was really wicked too.

Edit: The thing I noticed was the time restriction. I noticed the cut but I didn't think that mattered much, plus I also know 0 for all I no it could've have been a fan :lol:

Thanks everyone love you all :)

the last move behind the back wasn't a cut, it was a one handed faro shuffle. The cards are interlaced into each other, like the poker guys do with the poker chips, then waterfalled :). Sure that the cards have to be cut in order to be shuffled, but the main move isn't the cut, so it's okay :)

I've been doing xcm for a year give or take, But I know more moves then the one you just saw, I don't know how long exactly did these moves took me to learn.

If you want to learn xcm I'd recommend going through tutorials at youtube and if you like it, buy Xtreme beginnerz and the encyclopedia of playing card flourishes :)

www.flourishman.com

Lol i'm such a walking talking typing commercial, but seriously these products are the best

I am worried about those 3 seconds too :boing:

Lol all a'you stop worrying bout them 3 seconds it's okay I promise

another place for XCM: decknique

It's a sweet site, that's where I learn all my XCM

I hope that the "no cuts" rule doesn't also apply to video edits. O_o
:P

Edit: nevermind, fully edited video are allowed. -_-

very nice twin fans

i hope you do well, i myself am a Dan and Dave guy but i love the origanality of "XCM"

good job and good luck

@shoeman : very good i think you have some chance because i think the flipback + 1handfan wasnt that easy :D hehe and it isnt that serious i like that. and the helicopter of the guitar man was such good lik ass xD

Yo, ShoeMan!

Good job. ;)

WOW I wasn't expecting that!
It's good taking chances every once in a while I guess :P
Thanks Eriror for noticing and posting it here, so I don't need to post it myself and be seen as a show off :lol:

Wow thats pretty cool.. I would start if I wouldn't have to do 52 card pick up every 5 seconds...

Start with simple cuts, after reading this thread i went and followed some really basic stuff on youtube, like pivot cuts and stuff.

Check it out! :P

Also - wtg shoeman :D

Shoeman FTW Nice XCM. Good luck!

Damn dude, those fans were PERFECT! And nice with the one handed shuffle, I wish I had larger hands <_<

Just dont forget us when you win!

EDIT: Misspelled "us"

you have nothing to worry about, how can I forget you guys!?

next round's video in a week!! (give or take)

Good job on winning the first round, ShoeMan! Bring back the gold for us. ;)

Don't know if you care, but I you went up 31.78 notches in my book...

Why that number? No one knows...

FTW

That was, well pretty cool, no seriously.

why is it 'no cuts'? is anyhow cut spamming considered easy?

no but every round there has to be a theme like no cuts, perching, table work, originality, live performance, tribute to the masters etc,,

btw next video due on Monday and the theme is perching :)

i see. in that case i can't wait for the round with cuts. i always thought cuts at high speeds with many packets were cool.

Alright guys here's the Second round video, the theme is perching and this routine taught me a lot, especially how to get angry, and deal with it poorly (throwing stuff against the wall, including the deck, ripping things in half, including cards, pulling my hair out etc..)..

Watching now :thumb:

I liked the vid, pretty neat stuff

did you just fingerpass the cards?

Thanks dudes..

dathroat - Lol it was one card and it was reverse pass 12-32-34, fingerpassing a card in known in xcm as "card twirl" or "card roll"

Alright I won that round webghost didn't submit a video, heres next round

http://p210.ezboard.com/ROUND-3--VARIETY-B...opicID=48.topic

I love it :ilulz: :vcool:

Damn, that was cool. Great video, shoeman

You're the man Shoe...Man.

the only thing i can say is i really, really liked it.

your video just flowed together so well. i liked the cuts and the fans best.

surprisingly i wasn't bored to see the things you did in the manipulations collab one more time.

it seemed alot shorter than normal? maybe its because i liked it so much and can't get enough of the stuff. :lol:
