Pressure fan? Thumb Fan? No...

[shin]

After not having picked up a deck of cards in over two years, I started to learn some basics again, and I realized that I've been fanning a weird way. My left hand grip is the same as that of a thumb fan, but with my right hand, my fingers are placed like this:

Index finger on left side
Middle and ring finger on front side
Thumb on bottom

It provides a lot of stability when I fan, and I can do a pretty good fan with it. Is there a name for this kind of fan?

I believe it's still a thumb fan but the fan comes out weird. As in the top of the cards are aligned and things that I can't really explain.

It's still a thumb fan! without the thumb? well yah, same type of fan. Looks the same, just opened with a different finger. I like using my index too. Both work the same =)

Woah! That's exactly how I fan.

Why? For two years.

Why? For two years.

Lack of interest, discouragement, school. But I'm in college now so I have some more free time.

It's a cross between a thumb fan and a finger fan. Call it a "hand fan"...
