Cardistry: Jaspas Deck (Primeval Edition) Playing Cards To Launch In Singapore This Weekend!

New Deck Order announced that Jaspas Deck Primeval Edition Playing Cards will be available in Singapore this weekend. We are told that the Primeval Edition's international launch will be on 2nd September. For those of you who do not know, the Primeval Edition will be the second edition of the popular Jaspas Deck. Jaspas told Kardify,

When I designed the first edition of the Jaspas Deck, it was because I felt that playing cards were lacking in the department of adventurous, bold and fun colors. Matching contrasting bold colors like the ones I did is a difficult task of balancing brilliance and "eye torture". I had to go through multiple iterations and countless prototypes. It turned out to be my favorite deck of playing cards ever made.

Designing the Jaspas Deck Primeval Edition was an incredibly difficult task. Jaspas wanted to stay true to the intentions of the original design and create a color scheme that would make people want to handle the cards for themselves. It had to be fresh and exciting, without resorting to a simple hue/saturation change.

This led me down a path of countless different color combinations before I finally settled on the pastel pink and Tiffany blue you see today. The calm and soothing colors feel inviting to the eyes and are a timeless pairing of modern color combinations. To further improve the card lover's experience, I also went through numerous trials and errors with different paper types. I wanted to avoid the standard USPCC paper stock and also provide a new feel for the ones familiar with the first edition of the Jaspas Decks. This took a number of tries to get right.

For the Jaspas Deck Primeval Edition, 12 stocks and finishes were tested before deciding on the paper used on the deck.

The deck feels awesome right out of the box, handles powder well and breaks in like a dream.

The New Deck Order's first live event for the new Jaspas Decks will be happening on the 26 of August in Singapore. The International launch will be on 2 September. The Jaspas Deck Primeval Editions are limited edition with only 1037 decks printed for sale. They will cost USD$18 and will be available on thenewdeckorder.com.

The School of Cardistry Playing Cards is back this year with an all new colourway! The School of Cardistry v3 features a “Beyond Borders” back design, with circles that continue off the cards making your cardistry moves look more substantial, powerful, and deliver impact with every single motion.

Designed by Edo Huang, the iconic dynamic face design gives the deck a seamless and continuous flow, while the indices give separation to each individual card.

A centre indicator was designed specifically on both sides of the card to naturally guide you to the perfect position for card spins and isolation routines.


According to Jaspas, the new School of Cardistry v3 comes with an improved stock.

We’ve chosen a stock that is softer, with the perfect finish and varnishing that makes fans a breeze. This deck readily fans when you want it to, and stays in packets when it needs to.

Cardistry: 7 Questions with Jaspas Deck of the School of Cardistry Deck

The School of Cardistry deck was created in conjunction with School of Cardistry, New Deck Order's  (NDO) popular YouTube channel with free Cardistry tutorials for absolute beginners. Created by NDO with experienced Singaporean designer Marcus Lim from SVNTY, the School of Cardistry deck was designed to have a classic and timeless feel, with a contemporary touch.

The designs are completely hand-illustrated. The back design is inspired by traditional playing card backs, featuring Cardistry moves on top of intricate details. The face cards takes on a modern look, inspired by traditional court cards. It was designed to accentuate spinning flourishes, flowing movements, as well as large, multi-card displays.

On New Years Eve, we managed to have a chat with Jaspas Deck, co-founder of NDO about the School of Cardistry, the idea behind the deck, the design process and feedback & support from the cardistry community.

2014 was a fantastic year for NDO! Memorable CoSEA tour, awesome DVD and lecture notes and that CoSEA deck! Can you tell us quickly about School of Cardistry and how it came about? 
Thanks for you kind words! The School of Cardistry is our solution to every beginner Cardists' biggest question.

"What do I learn first?"

We designed a basic structure of Youtube videos that basically help our viewers find something on their skill level provides them a wide variety of moves to learn. This keeps our viewers motivated and makes it fun to learn Cardistry.

The School of Cardistry deck is your second self-funded deck of cards. When did you first start thinking about the deck and where did you get the idea from?
It has always been on my mind. Playing cards, particularly in Asian countries have a negative stigma attached to it. When people see playing cards, they think of gamblers. it's easy to see why we want to shake off that impression.

Another issue I had with standard playing cards is that the faces are rarely ever used in Cardistry. Cardists may use them for a spread or fan, but ultimately, the faces of cards get far less exposure than the backs, which is a pity, that's 50% of a deck that rarely gets seen!

This led me to ultimately design the School of Cardistry deck.

Can you describe the School of Cardistry deck and why you’re passionate about it?
The School of Cardistry deck is unlike anything you've ever seen. It's back showcases a timeless hand-drawn design featuring the School of Cardistry's logo and an array of details referencing both the art of classic card design and hand drawn instructions of old magic instructional books.

Unlike traditional deck of playing cards, the faces on the School of Cardistry deck are very unique, can you elaborate on that?
The faces are where the cards truly shine. Our contemporary face design is your average court card adapted into a beautiful abstract design. The art is postitioned in a way that looks good in both dynamic movements and static displays. It's simply a pleasure to work with.

What role did you play in the art direction and how did you get feedback??
I was the creative director in this project. Simply put, I decided how and who we were going to work with. For this project I knew I wanted an artist could could produce organic looking art and spent a long time trying to find an artist who could meet our standards. After multiple failed attempts, I finally met Marcus Lim from SVNTY and I knew he was the one.

Marcus' style of intricate designs, attention to negative space, and taste in balancing his art was exactly what we were looking for. I pitched to him the concept behind our cards and he got to work immediately. Marcus' and my back and forth allowed the cards to evolve from what I originally had in mind into the final product. It was an amazing process.

What do you think of the cardistry community in terms of the feedback and support that you’ve been getting?
The reception has been stellar! We've shown our cards to many Cardists and when they get the cards, they seem to be hypnotised by the faces of the School of Cardistry deck.

We often find Cardists who use our cards staring at their hands and observing the cards in motion. It feels like a new dimension of possibility has opened to the Cardists when they use our contemporary face designs. We are really happy to see our users enjoy our cards as much as they do.

Finally, what's next for NDO?
NDO has huge plans for this year. We've already signed on a few cardists and are working closely with then to produce tutorials for some of their signature moves. In 2014 we brought some huge things to the Cardistry scene, starting with the School of Cardistry Youtube channel, the one-stop Cardistry tutorial channel, followed by the Cardistry of South East Asia project, a deck, a DVD and a set of lecture notes.

Next we produced the Ripple+4 tutorial pack, a set of moves created by my friend Kenneth Aidan Foo, before ending the year with the School of Cardistry deck, the first of its kind non-standard playing cards. In 2015, we will be looking to push more boundaries and bring bigger, better things to the table.

Wow..! Sounds awesome. Thank you for your time Jaspas and Happy New Year! :)
