Pen spinning

[daniel0731ex]

Blah blah blah?

does Lester Chan do penspin too?

I'm trying to penspin, here's some of my thumbarounds, this was when I was first trying to get it, I'm better now (but still a success rate below 10%).

Don't worry, Cyrus. Just keep trying, you'll eventually get it. Reminds me of when I was first trying to do a sonic. I kept doing it really badly and slowly, until one day in class, I got it to be done properly and quickly. I was like OMGWTFBQ!?!?

 

[Cyrus C.]

I think the problem is with my index finger, the pin goes on the outside of it, not the inside so it's impossible to catch without using your palm.

Does anyone know where you can learn the multiple twisted sonic bust? It's one of my favorite tricks but I can't find a good tutorial anywhere. I already know how to do the twisted sonic bust.

 

[Cyrus C.]

I finally got the thumbarounds.

lol. I'm not so good either...

Charge, thumbaround, sonic, Bak, and sometimes fingerless thumbaround.

It's kinda cool, but then you realize that you're spinning a pen. Then it starts going downhill.

@cyrus Try not to push so hard and it won't fly off like that. When you get the right spin try to apply the same amount of force each time.

Oh yeah, I penspin.
It's been quite a long time since I learned anything new, but I can do quite a few tricks.
I really suck at combos though. :[

I'm a drummer and I stickspin. But It's harder with a lighter sticklike thingy.. or pen. ha. but pencils with like clay on the ends or erasers work really good. long pencils. or you can buy them online. I too recently started due to a vid by thewestionian

 

[Cyrus C.]

I'm trying to do a combo with just thumbarounds, what it basically is, is:

Do a thumbaround with 3 & 4, caught with 2 & 3.
Do a thumbaround with 2 & 3, caught with 1 & 2.
Fingerless thumbaround.

What I'm having trouble with is catching the pen at the midpoint, & having no pauses. Any tips?

 

[CubesOfTheWorld]

I suck at penspinning. I can do thumb around only if i get lucky.
brekkie just made a tutorial on the thumb around, tho

 

[yeee707]

I can do thumbaround, but absolutely nothing else.

 

[ThatGuy]

I use this http://www.upsb.info/wiki/index.php?title=Anyball_Retractable_MX
because it was cheap, it writes, and it is well balanced. and eso's new stuff has a righty reflection in the bottom. Or you could just lefty spin ^^

I eriror.

 

[StachuK1992]

I'm in.
Sorry for the bump, but it shouldn't really be a problem, imo.
I'm not sure where to start.

 

[Phlippieskezer]

Wow. This is an interesting hobby...

I would like to learn, but it just seems so HARD.
I tried the thumbaround a couple of times (just watched a tutorial on it), but I have zero success. My pencil just keeps hitting my index finger before hitting the ground. lol T_T

 

[TheMachanga]

I can do thumb around and fingerflip. I can't do fingerflip with regular pens though, because their too light and short. I'm using a drumstick right now.
