Can somebody point me to any resources which describe the stud type of double lift? Thanks.

Martin Nash taught his "Knock-out" stud double in his trilogy of books which are, unfortunately out of print. He also taught it on a couple of his videos.

Greg Wilson teaches the Nash double on his video, "Double Take", which is still available and has a lot of good stuff on it.

Best regards,
Glenn Godsey

See:

The Complete Works of Derek Dingle, Kaufman, Kaufman & Greenberg, 1982, page 6 for "The DD Double Lift".

Ever So Sleightly - The Professional Card Technique of Martin Nash, Minch, Mickey Hades International, 1975, page 15, for "Knock-Out Double Lift".

And my favorite, the one I use alla time, and which Dingle showed me in the late 70's:

The Stuart Gordon Double Lift, the best description of which I have found is in Darwin Ortiz's CardShark, Ortiz, Kaufman & Greenberg, 1995, on page 106 though the illustrations are on page 105.

Hope that helps.

With all do with respect. Can we just flip two cards as one naturally, as in the Dai Vernon double lift? I mean, I sometimes use the knock out double lift, but not to much, because I don't wanna get all fancy. It's ok, that everyone is using fancy moves, it's t his or her choice, that he will be very good at it. I like to use the Dai Vernon Double Lift, because it's so natural and it's like turning over a page in a book. Just to sum this all up, as long as it can be done smoothly and if it looks very convincing to the spectators, that they think theres only one card, then your on your way to a new level.

The stud double and turnovner was rather a 'tight' secret back in the 70s. It would be interesting to read a good description of how the inventor makes it work.

I agree. My main intentions are not to necessarily learn this type of double lift, but to study its origins. I have just found that it seems it isn't explained in too many places.
