Guys!

Throughout Ben Earl's Deep Magic Seminar Series, he is constantly (absentmindedly!) rotating a single card around the deck using only one hand, as he speaks. If you've bought any single video from that excellent Series, then you know what I'm referring to. Would anyone happen to know of a source or even name of the flourish Ben is doing?

Thanks so much in advance!

I would like to know this too. But it doesn’t look like one car that looks like a full deck cut when he does it. If anyone to know the name and the source that would be great thank you.

Can't you just write Ben on social media & ask there?

I haven't seen a Ben Earl video in a while but it should be around the world/salamander from Jeff McBride. Here's a tutorial

Thanks for sharing macc but unfortunately it's not Around the World. It's somewhat similar-ish to the Judo Flip but it's not that either.

Here's a snippet of Ben performing the move (hope it's OK to post) in case anybody can recognize:

Sorry for responding late. I don't think there's a name for what Ben does in the clip. But the "Muse Cut" and the "Judo Flip" both start similar to what Ben does.
