RIFFLE SHUFFLE
Everyone at MFA has been amazed at the popularity of card sleights and flourishes. I guess everybody likes to impress! If you want to get started on the road to learning flourishes then the riffle shuffle is a great place to start. When you have mastered this why not move on to the Waterfall Shuffle.

STEP 4

You will need to practise to get the distance between the cards right, but when you have that perfected it is a simple matter to slowly release the cards so that they interleave. Then simply push the cards together to complete the move.
