Two tips and a philosophical musing on the one-handed top palm

The one-handed top palm makes a card secretly vanish from the top of the deck with just one hand. This video shares two practical tips to make the move look more natural, including a grip technique inspired by Derek Dingle. It also highlights the Glenn Morphew palm's effectiveness, though it's currently unavailable, and argues why one-handed palms outshine two-handed ones in misdirection and efficiency.

Tricks mentioned

Key points

  • Incorporate the one-handed top palm grip into a natural card squaring motion for better concealment.

  • Use the Dingle grip for re-gripping the deck after the palm.

  • The Glenn Morphew palm is highly recommended but currently unavailable.

  • One-handed top palms offer superior misdirection and efficiency compared to two-handed versions.
