Deck Condition

[Lorenzo Palmes]

Hey guys, i was just was wondering how much time you use just one deck?, and if it is a high quality deck like Tallys or Just normal like Bikes?

For me, i use a deck for a week. (i use normal bikes and sometimes tally-ho's)

Thanks

Only a week? Seriously? Wow.

I have about 3-4 decks open at one time and I cycle through them.

I only perform with Bikes and Alladins as they are the cheapest an most... normal looking... haha. If I perform constantly, then I go through 1 deck in 2.5 weeks? around?
But for practising, I keep all my custom decks handy so I cycle through them. This isn't really for the whole..."I want to keep them in prestine condition" thing but rather "I'm feeling the Karnivals today.... Or maybe the Leons..." haha.

lol

i got decks for practice and the ones to perform only

I use normal Bikes for practicing and get about 3 weeks out of a deck. For performances / paid gigs, I will normally take Master's Bikes and put them in a "normal" box so people don't ask, "Why is that box different?"

When it comes to flourishing it depends on a few factors like:
1)How long you practice a day
2)What you're practicing (Springs over a long period of time will eff up your cards quickly)
3)How sweaty your hands get

So, there is no real exact 'expiry date' for your cards since everyone is different. I stop using mine once I get big clumps in my fans, but it's all about personal preference.

Do this, throw in a porper clip or two, and you'll have something that should last you months.

Im in england so i cant get bikes or tallys lol but i use WHSmith cards and i use them for a month till there completly Fkd

 

[AlfieWhattamMagic]

I live in England so I have to get my bikes, tallys, custom cards of the internet so I basically use a deck a month

I live in Portugal, have a small internet store and have like 15 opened decks to cycle. Fkd cards are usefull to throw. So I use the deck until I have them.

Because I can't get custom cards to me (aside from ordering which is hella expensive to ship here) I used 2-3 decks of bikes and cycle through them while I practice. I will use higher quality cards for performance

 

[Lorenzo Palmes]

Yes, One deck for week, because where i live is at 45 degrees nearly al the time, (is a desert), but i got a poper, and i have been using a bike for 2 weeks and still can fan pretty fair. Thanks for all the commments!

 

[JDENredden]

Sometimes I use decks for months. I cycle through them so they last a bit longer. As long as they can fan fairly alright, Ill use them.

It depends on the kind of deck really. If I practice with normal bikes everyday for about 2-3 weeks then the deck gets pretty bad. Although I have lots of unopened decks strictly for performances. But better decks such as some theory11 decks I keep in very good condition and when I perform I am very careful with them.
