Is there a method for getting the cards into the balloons? My balloons always break.

well it helps if you have some good quality balloons....

if you are trying to use really cheap 9 inch ballons from the dollar store then you will have problems...

i use 16 inch qualatex balloons and i have never had any problems....i just strech the neck of the balloon around the deck.

ya i agree... I just needed some balloons for my balloon sculpters and what not so i went and bought 144 9in balloons for 7 bucks... Very cheap balloons obviously...But i saw some bigger ones...

Just think, if you buy it cheap, more than likely it is cheap!

First of all like others have said you need higher quality balloons, but the way I got the cards in. I stretched the neck of balloon just so it was wrapped around about 1/4 of the card, and then I lift up one side and blew in. The air allowed the deck to go right in with a small push. Hope this helped

i agree with magick for this trick u need at least 11 inch balloons and even then its a pretty tight fit....anythin under that and they will just burst either puttin them in or when ur tryin to blow it up

plus the quality is always gonna be an issue u need quality latex baloons, dont cheap out and go to a dollar store or somethin like that, if u really want to perform the trick then spend some money on decent quality balloons

when you say that a balloon is 16 inch....that is the fully inflated size, thru the widest part of the balloon.

and the bigger the balloon is... the bigger the neck of the balloon...so, it's easier to get the cards into a larger balloon.

i bought airtight about 10 years ago...and it came with 16 inch balloons and qualatex is the only brand i ever use.
