The practice behind the various slug controls.
PRACTICE DRILL:
By combining the tools I teach in the video, work out (for yourself) how to accomplish the following sequence:
Begin with the 4 aces on top and the 4 kings on the bottom. Riffle, Riffle, Strip Cut, Riffle, Cut. At the end, the 4 aces are on top and the 4 kings are on the bottom.
For an additional challenge, try the same thing, but the cut at the end has to be a real cut (i.e. not a base cut). Hint: you may briefly (pun intended!) have to hold multiple breaks.
No crimps or up-the-ladder cuts allowed!
