What cards do you guys use?
- Thread starter The Dark Angel
- Start date
I use Masters and Ghost decks as much as possible or when I feeling like just opening a new deck I use old-school Air Flow Bikes, but Ill most likely be using Guardians soon enough.

I got started in Card Magic about a year ago and have experimented with many decks:
Bikes (Red,Blue,Ghost,Black Tigers, Masters, 1800's)
Tally's (Red,Blue,Vipers)
I've also dabbled with Rio Casino Decks (Obviously some limitations)
I practise and perform solely with Red/Blue Tally's. For some reason, they just break-in more quickly, and I'm more comfortable with them. They also wear out alot faster... But they are cheap when you order them in bulk:

On another note, I Love the look and feel of the Black Tiger/Tally Viper/Ghost deck. But like I hate it when someone says "Are those Magic Cards", or "Hey, Cool Cards". Immediately they think something is up, which may or may not be what you are trying to achieve.

I just usually stick with Tally-Ho's and Bikes most of the times, Then if I feel like a change I try something different.

I use nothing but red backed jumbo index cards. They are large and annoying.. like me. (And I can do a trick with the card box that freaks non-magicians out)
Personally I find adhearing to one particular type of cards actually helps you because it puts limitations on your options and forces you to be more creative.

I should keep that in mind
Reg bikes( red&Blue )
Masters( red&Blue )
both only to practice.
i only started card magic so i never hit the streets yet.
I usually perform with league back bikes or just classic blue/red bikes!just back to the roots^^!
I use regular bikes for practice. When performing, I like using either a new pack of regular bikes or my Ghost Deck.
You'll generally find me with any of the following on a regular basis;
Tally Ho Circle Backs (blue)
Bicycle Rider Backs
Arrco US Regulation
Studs
So really, I use anything that is "normal" to a laymen.
^ But what is the definition of 'normal'? - I imagine that would be anything that looks not too "out of the ordinary" as would a Black Tiger for example.
