i was wondeing, what kind of cards do the manipulators use for practising. is it the normal air-cushioned bikes or manipulating cards. and also where can i get my hands on the latter.

manipulation cards

wow the card press looks good... wonder if can get it locally.. and the card too...

Just use any USPC manufactured cards. These will work fine.
But somehow, Tally-ho is usually recommended.

are you serious? tally ho is so damn thick and hard, and has a white border...i rather use bee...no border and thinner

*I'm sorry, we cant tell you due to the new rule.

tally ho is for flourishing and not manipulation or card production

Oh sorry, I'm assuming that manipulation means flourishing.

Anyway, can you give me examples of card manipulation?

Theres more to manipulation than flourishing.

Productions of cards, vanish. Think Cardini and Jeff Mcbride.

u have to define your scope of card manipulation to that kind of jeff mcbride or brian tudor's

Hahhaa, Flourishes are EXTREME card manipulations. XCM

i mean he was refering to card production... so that you need thin cards

Bee Brand cards are good for manipulation. If you have the ACM series, Jeff Mcbride goes through the preparation procedure for you. Although I've been into magic for years, I'm only starting to pick up manipulation too... Anyways, I've just ordered a couple of packs of bee bridge size cards yesterday. The poker size are too big for my hands...although I can practice with them though.

There are also other manipulation cards online like Neilson and Juliana chen's.. so go surfing...
