Pen Twirling

gamebreaker04

This is just a video I recently made on me twirling my pen. Granted I'm not very good, but some comments and ratings would be nice. To get you guys started. one part I wish I could've done better was the timing in the beginning, but I'm too lazy to mess it up and fix up the perfect ending (music stops when video ends :P ) again now.

To start up a pen twirling discussion, does anybody know how to do that whole pen spinning thing? This is the one I'm referring to:

I'm always seeing people in my class doing it and it would be a great additon to my pen twirling tricks.

Fuck you. Been trying for 3 years and still don't have it. :(

Haha, I started to pen spin when I started to twirl my rice scoop when I cooked. I pause inbetween my spins though.

Every time I ever tried that my fingers got jammed and stuff got pulled… etc. Pain.

It's like breakdancing, only with writing utensils.

I know a couple of tricks in pen twirling. I usually do it when I'm bored. One is when you let the pen spin with the use of all your five fingers.
Another is letting the pen spin with ten of your fingers (both hands)
Another is letting the pen spin in a horizontal arc by your thumb joint
Then another is letting the pen twirl with all three middle fingers in a vertical way.

You know. The middle finger, the index and the ring finger. U spin the pen with all three of them. I think it's a very rare technique in pen twirling.

I think that the confusion came from figuring "three middle fingers" to mean three middle-middle fingers. As in you must have three hands or use your toes or something.

Oooooooooooooooooooooooooh, I see what you mean now.

There are still tons of stuff I have to learn with pen twirling. But I'm not taking it that seriously….seriously.

For now, I'm just working with twirling both pens simultaneously in different hands. I'm trying to cook up of a more unique trick though, but I'm coming up with nothing :P

Oh god, I didn't even knew this existed. This opened up a whole new world to me, don't go telling me there are worldchampionships for this.
