Pen Spinning

[imported_LoKe]

Can any of you do pen tricks? If so, which ones and what pen(s) do you use? Myself, I use a modified Pentel R.S.V.P

any pen i can find

MODIFIED? You're hardcore

The ink is reversed, the cap is on the back of the pen covering the reversed ink so I don't mark my hands up. I have an insert in the clear tube making it white instead of see-through. Eventually the insert will have some sort of pdesign on it, making it look half decent when spinning.

Whoever wants to see a couple easy tricks on MSN vis webcam, feel free to add me MattChristianson[@]Gmail[.]com

Do extra stickers give you extra spi power?

On a serious note: I'm far too unskilled to do pen tricks, and I'm also to lazy to spend the time learning.

I can do most pen tricks, a lot with my thumb, I usually use a modified black Papermate ballpoint.

Meh I don't care about my hands, I use a ballpoint anyway so it pretty much just rubs off. I add some weight to the cap, and usually have the cap on the back of the pen which gives me more length and weight for spinning.

WTF are pen tricks? Why the hell would you modify a pen?

Spinning the pen in your hands and through your fingers...modify the pen for MACKSIMUM SPINNAGE

I use whatever I happen to be holding at the time, comes in handy with a gfx tablet tho as I can flip the sensors between pen and eraser without missing a beat.

I would like to see a video of your pen tricks. I have never heard of such a thing.

I think I know which one you're talking about. And yeah, asians have far better patience and co-ordination, due to determination.

Quite impressive skills. I have to start messing with a pen at work and see what I can learn!

Sorry the cam quality was so bad an all. The stand is broken so I had to hold it with my other hand, can't help but shake a little bit.

lighter trick > fingerboarding > pen trick

 

[deadlyapp]

i use anything, pen, pencil, ruler.

I do a neat trick that I learned last year. Pretty cool, you flick it and it spins around the outside of your thumb. Everyone just looks at you dumbfounded after you do it

last year tried creating an experimental one by reversing it, it was a lot harder and didn't get off the ground

ive seen my friend do that. i tried to learn how, but failed miserably.

 

[chuckywang]

I can do mean pencil tricks with a No.2 pencil. Pens have a pocket holder that make it more difficult.

 

i can do kickflips and shove-its on my fingerboard

 

[Safeway]

I'm learning ...
