I was wondering what your favorite deck of cards are (other than Jerry's of course)?
Which deck of cards are you most likely to be using on any given day (might be the same as above)? What do you guys think about regular bikes? I'm going to be asking questions like crazy this week Especially since I just ordered The Trilogy, I'm going to have a lot to say! |

Been a lot of talk about the "ultra thin" manipulation decks on some of the other threads lately. Have you two ever consider putting out such an item on a similar type stock or perhaps like that of the Absoluts? Just curious. Thanks!

Look for WPT cards, they come in two varieties; one of them being white bordered.

Wow, I feel really stupid now, I accidentally posted the ones that had a white border instead of a solid black one These are the black bordered ones (the ones that I was thinking of in my original post):

I found the topic on the Penguin Magic forums that discussed these a while back, it's over here: http://www.penguinmagic.com/discuss/viewtopic.php?t=143993 The OP also put up a picture of them. |

Here are the white-bordered Bees. Item number 190178069889 on Ebay.
Fullboatdealer is the seller. Lots of interesting cards. Great to deal with and quick shipping. You can buy them by 2, or in sets of 12.

Although I don't have much experience with different types of cards, about a week ago I found the best cards for flourishing. While they can't spring or even spread at all because they are so rough, it makes flourishes that keep the cards in packets so much easier. I was even able to perform Vertigo Hackysack with them! The cards are... Pokemon cards. I'm being absolutely serious about this. I picked up a couple of these cards from my room since they were the closest cards to me at the time, started flourishing with them, and they were great. They stink for anything other than flourishing, but I still think I'll be using them for a while (for practicing only, I wouldn't be seen in public with those ).
