SleightfulDeck Review - Bicycle Waterproof Plastic Playing Card
Ashley from TheCardists reviews the Bicycle Waterproof Plastic Playing Cards (Red Edition), highlighting their unique clear, waterproof design made from 30% recycled plastic. While the deck boasts a retro-modern aesthetic and durability for wet conditions, it falls short in handling, making it less ideal for cardistry or sleight-heavy magic. Priced at $9.99, it's seen as an affordable novelty for collectors or casual play rather than a performance staple. Ashley appreciates the deck's design but notes its limitations in practical use, concluding it's great for novelty but weak for magic.
