About "Mail Day":
-
“Mail Day” showcases the brand new Virtuoso Moments series… through the capturing of the raw and communal moment shared between all Cardists -
When new cards arrive in the mail.
To the Cardist, the unboxing ritual is not a performance, but a vibe.
A myriad of micro moments and emotions to take in.
There’s the heart’s leap when the door bell rings.
The arrival of the package.
The glimpse of the label to confirm what we already know to be inside.
Then, there’s our eager grabbing of a blade.
The slicing open of the box.
And always, the peering in and hoping… that reality got the memo from our expectations.
We reach in, carefully cradling our new decks from the box.
We’re eager to open them… yet not quite.
”But they’re so new”, we reason both ways.
Should we use them? Should we not?
Could we just imagine what they look like, feel like, and be just as satisfied?
Are our hands clean enough? Dry enough?
Should we have bought more?
”No. I have enough”, we say every week.
We hold up the tuck case. The cellophane crinkles.
We admire the art work on the outside, all while hoping no dents reveal themselves.
Then finally, mustering up the courage, we allow ourselves the satisfaction of peeling the pull-tab… watching as it traces its way around the edge.
The first "open" is complete. Now the second one awaits.
We could stop now, but we know it’s already too late.
So, we admire the now naked tuck case, as our thumb presses into the edge of the flap - flicking upwards as one strikes a match.
Only here, the spark is a sound - that satisfying first “click” of when the top pops open.
Will we ever get tired of that click? Or the sweet aroma that arises?
The flap hovers over, casting a soft shadow.
We pause a final time, distracting ourselves with the little details.
“Designed for Cardistry”, it says. Neat.
A sliver of the deck’s design peeks out as we peer down.
The grain on the edge teases our fingertips of the tactility to come.
And gently, we draw the cards cards out - and the true first impression is made.
Well, almost.
For they say you can’t judge a book by its cover.
Yet what is a deck’s back, but a book waiting to be opened; to be read?
So, we flip the pages open to its faces -
Going through each card. Seeing each pip. Admiring each Icon.
A fine table of contents.
And now, the real reading begins.
Yet in this book, one isn’t immersed in words.
Here, in a deck of cards, paper pages come to life through movement and form.
Our hands write their story in realtime, as packets shift and dance in our hands.
Music emerges - as the pasteboards collide - from the sonata of springs to the near-silent harmony of woven cards. (And sometimes, in secret, we supply sound effects with our mouths.)
And as with all things that build, so comes the inevitable… drop.
The first one cuts the deepest. The long hair is the grossest.
Yet, with each stage of our deck’s breaking in?
A little more of ourselves gets to break out.
Perhaps, with each time we let go, we gain a little more control.
As if our hands… gain their footing?
They walk a bit. And then after some falls and false starts… they begin to run.
And then they dance.
And then we begin to dance, on the inside, too.
So no, what’s inside the box is not “just another deck”.
For our cards help us to play, and to say… what our words can’t always convey.
To the outsider, we move cards.
They don’t know, that just as much…
Each move, moves us.
So don’t rush. Sit down. Soak it in.
And enjoy… Mail Day.
Love,
The Virts

Babe wake up thevirts uploaded
Haha yes! Literally the best feeling!
Waking up to this beautiful email and experiencing the video is the best feeling ever!! Woke up to this in my notifications and jumped with joy!
Thanks so much Anthony! We appreciate you so much. Hope you're recovering well btw. Take care!!
Man that move at 3:13 is so awesome I love how it switches from court II to I such a subtle detail.
I loveee the colours and the more chill vibe!! super cool video, can't wait to get myself a deck!
Thank you! Figured it'd be nice to do something more "communal" and laid back for a change.
It's so nice to see a chill video with longer shots! And very gratifying to see Piano Cuts in someone else's hands :D The cards feel great and this back design is my favorite, so I'm glad they were redone :) It's good to see the team more active again, you definitely hold a special place in the community's heart.
The cards are amazing! I was lucky enough to get them in the private release and have been using them a lot. They are no doubt the best cards ever made!
LOVE IT! Have been handling my OC´s with lots of joy the past month.
So happy you're enjoying them!! Thanks for the love
Are Tumble and Maze new Moves by Daren or already from the good old days? Can´t remember those being shown anywhere. Thanks!@@thevirts
OMG!That is the true Reanimation!!!!!
Virts are back. Let's go. Seeing this in my notifications made my friggin day.
smooth like butter
Literally, my wife just said to me"you know who's hands are those. Don't you?"I felt like the biggest nerd
I love your art, thank you for this 😄
Обожаю ваше творчество, спасибо вам за это 😄

What good morning thevirts giving me the chill i love this
and may you have a good night of sleep too
LOVE IT !
Wow
U guys have such creative boxes
Sorry it’s tuck cases
Bro did they just uploaded a video 😳👀💚
i told myself id finally actually learn cardistry when my oc cards arrived but woefully i happened to do very long acrylic nails like a week before I got them and have been unfortunately handicapped for the time being. the decks still look very sexy on my shelf though!
Sounds like you’ve got pretty nails tho. Haha so worth the trade off for now. Pretty nails. Pretty shelf. We like
Class!
Smooth as butter or we should say Smooth as the virts
I usually don't comment on videos but I just wanted to say that it is good to see your content again.
I am guessing that you will be back for a time only to disappear into nothingness for quite a while (I mean at this point this kind of became the rhythm, didn't it?)
But still, comments boost videos into other people's recommended and even though cardistry will probably never reach the height it once had again this seems like a goal worth working towards :D
Thank you so much! Yeah we tend to go away to work on stuff and come back with something we're proud to share. In the meantime, your comments across our videos are extremely welcome. :) We've got lots planned in the coming months. So though we've been intentionally quiet on the public front of Cardistry over the past few years, we're excited to start growing the art once again
When will the cards hit stores like Tannen's Magic

You’re the best
Hello,
i loved your ss16 deck beacuse of the brighter and Warmer colours. Could you please add to the next design some colour like ss16 - ss14 - orange - blue - yellow…
I think that last 5 years it was just green and black…
Thank you for the answer and for the cards - they still feel amazing.
That’s cool
Okay we need to talk about that cut at 2:32
fr what is that called
Until last night it had no name. Now it's called Tumble 😂@@Tony-tv8ux
ooh sounds interesting, any tutorials about it coming out?
You have no idea how much i miss you all😢
Thank you so much 🙏🏻
Definitely need some tutorials
✌️👍
How can I get flick shot tutorial?How much does it cost for that tutorial?
"it's ok even the Virts make mistakes in cardistry" -Mom
