now i regret not getting into it eariler, but im here now!ive practice most manipulations to an intermediate stage on everything from pen spinning, speedcubing, poi, glowstringing, etc...and to see this whole new world is amazing! since ive been pen spinning for so long, i ran into a wall a couple years into it where i eventually learned every possible trick there was and i quickly fell out of it. but i see with cardistry, there so much to learn, and endless possibilities, and im here to be a sponge! i love learning and i hope i can do that here
For me it started there, and I found The Flourishman to be somewhat of a positive counter to De'vo. I still look through his Encyclopedia of Playing Card Flourishes from time to time, there's so much stuff in there.
