This is a well thought out Dai Vernon version of the Glide. Every finger position and movement has its reason. The Glide is not necessarily the most deceptive move, but it is easy to do. This version is very deceptive. As is so often the case, Vernon elevates a simple move to a masterpiece of deception.

This Steve Draun idea allows you to peek the card while you do fan cards using a pressure fan. This is in contrast to techniques where you glimpse at or after closing the fan.

runtime: 1min 8s

A terrific control from a fan, created by Paul LePaul. You insert a selected card into a pressure fan. After closing the fan you have the selected card jogged, which allows you to take a break above or below.
