That Feeling

[Tower of Lunatic Meat]

Ah! That good feeling you get when you effectively troubleshoot a part of a flourish that has been hanging you up for a while.

I figured out what has been hanging me up with @Andrei 's 'Backpack' for a bit and was able to finally pull it off a lot more consistently.

Anyone else get that feeling? What flourish was it?

Yes. Pandora... still working on it though.

I had trouble at the beginning to open the first 3 packets with that lone card rotating from one of the packets. That feeling when you can open it with stability without dropping the middle packet to the floor!

I am still struggling with peeling off that top card of the tornado cut packet using the left thumb. It doesn't feel natural and the pivot point at the base of the left thumb slides. Either my pivot point is not well-located or I am not gripping the packets correctly...

A lot of people skip that section and go straight into the crabshack after the tornado. I think it flows better that way too.

Also for the open, I use a break and then a small swing cut to break the first 2 packets apart. I found this much easier than trying to break off a packet with the base of my thumb. It might not be the correct way, but it's much easier for me.
