Another Cardistry-Con has come and gone, and this year’s event was the biggest global cardistry event in history. Attendance grew by 100% compared to the previous year in Berlin. A strong crowd of more than 300 cardists attended cardistry-con in downtown Los Angeles within the Arts District at The Springs. In addition, new cardistry decks were introduced over the Con weekend. Here’s what caught our attention (Image above from @cardisfornia_apparel):

Only 200 were produced specifically for attendees of Cardistry-Con.
