Learning to Card Spring with No Experience

Hi Mike, I'm a cardist that has been practicing the Spring for close to a year now and would like to share some tips.
1. The type of deck your using matters. Starting off with an old and clumpy deck is usually best, but kudos to you for using what looks to be a new deck. The brand also matters since using cheap dollar store decks make it harder for most people to do the spring, $3 Bicycle decks re usually best since they are cheap, soft, and smooth.
2. Grip. There are multiple different grips you can use to do a Spring, (the one I practiced with is called the "deep grip" I believe, the grip you are using is the basic grip) but one thing that is consistent between all the different grips is that when you bend the cards, your hand that you hold/launch the cards in should look like a reverse "c" and as you do the spring and get towards the end of the deck, straighten out your hand to look like a sideways "u" or "v", focus on especially straightening out your thumb as you do the Spring since that is where the cards should leave/launch from your hand.
3. Its harder to do the Spring with warped cards. When the cards start to look particularly bent inward, reverse the deck and do a couple of spring on the opposite side. Make this a habit every two or three springs to spring the deck on the opposite side once or twice.
Hope you find some of these tips helpful if you do see them.

I like the way you are now I hope you don't change in the future when you get even more famous. I really like the way you make your videos. Usually, other YouTubers change after getting famous. I really don't want you to change in any way just stay like this forever. LOVE YOUR WORK!!

What I like about your videos is you explain your mistakes. I learned to card spring years ago while learning other magic and cardistry tricks, and every mistake I saw you make, you mentioned and explained why it was wrong.
