I am a novice pen spinner. I know my way around a few tricks, my most recent being the fake double, but the thing is, they are so hard to find, even on the pen spinning forum boards. Nobody wants to teach, and I've spent a long time trying to find it myself, but does anybody know where I can find a decent instructional video (directions can be seperate from the video), with DECENT LIGHTING (the only video I can find has crappy lighting, can't see a thing right), that can teach me how to do the RevToBack (also called reverse to backaround) combo?

 

And please, don;t send me to pentrix....no instructions, and it's the bad lighting. I'll continue to search myself, but any help won;t go amiss. And I think i have to learn either the fake revers or the reverse to start with...I'm looking for those[/u], too, but can anybody find where to do those?

Care to explain what... this is? :-s

Officially the weirdest Tip.it forum topic up do date.

 

 

 

Nah, it's just that his hobby is pernnspinning and he is asking for a tutorial for a specific combo.

There was a small discussion about it a while ago...Not it's own thread, but a discussion inside a thread...

 

I'm decent at Pen Spinning...I haven't really bothered to formally learn any tricks, I just do what I think is correct.

 

Now, if you want us to help you, it would be nice if you could give us a little more description. Maybe a link or two, and a better description of what you're trying to do.

Never heard of it, sorry :? .

Woohoo, thanks. Something to do at school now.

I didn't know that that has developed into such an art form. For those (like me) who don't know what these guys do:

Then why say anything? :lol: No one cares whether you don't know, only whether you know, so you might as well just write "+1 post count thx". :shame:

Well you didnt really add anything on about the topic either so you might as well edit it to say +1 post count.

 

 

 

Im not trying to be racist or anything but a few of my asian friends at school can do this really well and one can spin basically anything folders notebooks etc. :lol: I dont know anyone else who can though.

Wow... I never knew penspinning was this big. Tutorial videos, forums? I just do it school for a laugh. I'm alright at it. But I don't know of any good penspinning tutorials or stuff like that, sorry. Just Google it, I guess.

Penspinning?

 

I like to stab things.

HARDCORE!!!

 

 

 

what really amazes me is they have special types of pens to do it with... I mean come on. Surely they have something better to do. its japan for gods sake!

I don't know any non-Asians that can do it. o.0

 

But then, I first learned at church (I go to a Chinese church), and I taught my friends at Chinese school. Some of my friends at school (All Asian) have started to pick up on it too. :-s

 

 

 

And Jaziek...Yeah, I was kind of amused at how they list different types of pens. :)

Oh yea. here's the crappy video, alright but the lighting.... :notalk:

He basically does a reverse (not sure what it is, need to learn that, too :oops: ) then goes into a backaround (which I already know \ ). So all i really need is a decent tutorial on the reverse and I can figure it out from there.

Well, at least you tried, so thanks for that. "A" for effort. According to the oublic school systems, that's what counts :wink:

I like water bottle spinning better :D

After readin this thread throughly, i can say:

 

 

 

+1 post count.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Really, its a very nerdy thing to do.

 

Then again...Look where I'm posting this

Indeed, shows of dexterity and skill are very nerdy :roll:

i got a grammy for spinning a pen with my left nostril.. :anxious:

 

 

 

no rly tho, what is it, just getting a pen and do tricks?

yea pretty much. Twirl between fingers, spin on top of fingers, et.c I even know one that makes it fly pretty far and forceful (yes, it's supposed to do that).

I can get a second glance if i do a thumb around in school but thats about it. I'd love to learn more but after the thumb around everything gets hard >.>

 

 

 

this is what i found:

 

 

 

Perform a single reverse. As the pencil completes the first rotation lift your index finger allowing the pencil to continue another rotation between the index and middle finger over the back of the hand. The hard part of this trick is controlling the second half of the second spin so that the pencil can be caught or transitioned into another trick.

Sorry if it's completely wrong.
