I am unsure of where this belongs, but here is my question:
What is/are the most difficult move(s) that you know of. Also please mention if you have mastered them or not and other details.

For me, here they are:
1) Anti-faro (working on, far from having mastered it)
2) Clipshift by Chad Nelson (haven't tried)
3) Table faro (working on, not regularly though).

I don't practise many card moves much anymore, but the hardest move for that I have ever tried to get down is the Clipshift. I still play around with it every so often, but its still not perfect.

You can see my clipshift at about 18 seconds into this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6leKNnpXn3E

Your clipshift is pretty nice!

  • Pick a card, any card...no, not THAT card!

Toughest move I know of is a table faro.


I have yet to even learn how to shuffle on-table, as seen in the beginning of this Ricky Jay clip.

You MUST have a traditionally-cut deck if you plan on doing it face down with any ease.

Speaking of the table faro, have you guys purchased Jason England's download? If so, how is it?
