Those card tears looks so easy….

Thanks everyone

Rob i am very glad to see you dropping in. I have seen your videos, your a very powerful man. Do you compete in any strength sports? I would imagine you would kick some serious butt in the High Land games.

Thanks Adam! Yes I do compete in Highland Games and Amateur Athletics and hopefully some kind of Novice Strongman comp next year too.
I also love all strength training, kettlebells and weights etc.

Thanks for the card tearing info. !Problem is I’m getting no where, not even with 20 cards.

Question, are bikes non coated cards? as I’m trying plastic coated ones. In a way it’s great because I love being challenged but feel like a baby with this. Any ideas or do I just keep hammering away until something happens?

Thanks
Rob

Rob

bikes are plastic coated and are considered the hardest decks to rip. That is why i use them for my shows and my training. I have yet to find a deck that is close to bikes. They are the “golden standard” I now can tear a deck of bikes in to 4 pieces in 7 seconds. If you work hard, you will get it.

Adam,

I’m inspired!
Just had a go at 20 cards and managed it just. But a full deck is Superhuman, seems impossible at the moment, but I’m not one to be beaten.
I believe my thumbs are pretty weak and card tearing seems to rely heavily on this from my experiences so far.

Watch this space!
Rob
