Hello from MotleyFool!

Unread post by MotleyFool »

Hey all!

I'm Holley from Texas. I've always been enamored with all the tricks and flourishes and, of course, the dedicated people who make it look so easy. I've been experimenting with a few easier flourishes myself and am enjoying it very much - even if I spend two thirds of my time picking up cards off the floor ;)
I'm also impressed with all of the designers out there, I mean really - Nice work! They take card art to a whole other level and it's awesome.

Unrelated to cardistry, I'm also a comic book, manga, anime, and sci-fi fan. :geek:

Anyways, for now I will keep lurking around the forum for any tips or general chit chat, assuming I'm approved :D Until then - Have a good day everyone!

Welcome, Holley!

A tip for those times when you drop a lot of cards is to stand over a bed, makes picking them up a lot easier. Particularly useful when learning aerial cuts and armspreads :)

Rurouni Kenshin is the best.

Where in Texas are you, fool? Anywhere near Austin?

Nice avatar Holley. ;)

Welcome to the forums! Big DC fan myself but I dabble in manga such as Evangelion, Dragonball and Saint Seiya. I watched Samurai X as a child but haven't picked up the manga, yet.
