I think it's stupid to ask us our forecasts before seeing vids.
I was 100% right about third round by the way
-
Date: Wed, Mar 25 2009 18:24:23
I'd definitely say minwoo would win over frat. Frat's good and all, but minwoo's a monster.
Dongza and answer's a harder choice. Answer's done quite well for himself while Dongza's taken out tough opponents with his powerhouse spinning. We'll see how this turns out.
I definitely can't wait to see Eri vs Supa. Eri's an amazing spinner, but supa's been pulling off quite insane combos in the wt. Hard to say. I'm sure Eri has something up his sleeves.
Taeryong vs spinnerpeem? Peem all the way. Taeryong's got no chance this time. About time he went up against a tough opponent.
@tony
It's always fun guessing who'd win anyway. -

lol its just a fun poll, don't hurt anyone
-
Date: Wed, Mar 25 2009 18:36:45
Ouch. It hurt me to see Fratleym vs Minwoo. Still, i believe that Frat can win. Itll be close. Go Frat!!!
It sucks that s777 lost
but Peem will own Taeryong.
Eriror should be able to win this.
I still want to see Fratleym vs Eriror again! -
Date: Wed, Mar 25 2009 18:41:11
Im just waiting to see what Spinnerpeem is gonna pullout this time around. Maybe something we haven't seen before
Same goes for minwoo 
-
Date: Wed, Mar 25 2009 18:44:38
My prediction before vids:
Frat vs. Minwoo:
I have to say minwoo... He pulls out crazy stuff but I really also like Frats style... a lot....
Eriror vs. Supawit:
I think Eri's got this but you never know... Supawit's been getting high scores and he's also really clean...
Dongza vs. Answer
D: Two spinners in my favorite 3 go head to head.... I have to say Dongza on this one because IMO he's a bit better.
Tae vs. Peem:
Peem... -
Date: Wed, Mar 25 2009 18:50:20
yes peem to the next round!
Minwoo vs Frat
Eriror vs Supawit- I think its going to be pretty close
Dongza vs Answer
Taeryyong vs Spinnerpeem -
Date: Wed, Mar 25 2009 18:53:28
Minwoo vs. Frat
-> min will beat fratleym's ass up, maybe it's just the fact that I don't like his style but Minwoo is like charlie sayd: a monster.
Dongza vs. Answer
-> Answer, I really like Dongza (always on his side trough the tournament) but now he has to face my favourite spinner. Answer will win the whole wt
Eriror vs. Supawit
-> Eriror / ahh that's close one. could also be like 50/50 draw^^
Spinnerpeem vs. Taeryong
-> Peem / dunno what Tae is doing in this round? -
Date: Wed, Mar 25 2009 18:54:20
I like SupaWit127..but.. GO ERIROR!!!! WIN THE WORLD TOURNAMENT!!!!!
-
Date: Wed, Mar 25 2009 18:55:50
Am I really the only one, who goes for Frat? Sure, Minwoo does crazy tricks, but he is sloppy... Frat REALLY can take it.
-
Date: Wed, Mar 25 2009 19:14:41
Eriror vs Supawit
that will be interesting, for the other matches i'm pretty sure who will win (minwoo/dongza/spinnerpeem)
GO FOR ERIROR
btw lucky thaispinner, they don't have to battle against each other -
Date: Wed, Mar 25 2009 19:16:59QUOTE (Raem @ Mar 25 2009, 10:55 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Am I really the only one, who goes for Frat? Sure, Minwoo does crazy tricks, but he is sloppy... Frat REALLY can take it.
Minwoo toned down his difficulty in the R3 vid. Perfectly fine, no sloppiness and it was still wonderful. And minwoo's been scoring higher than frat every round (I believe). But we'll never know how things'll turn out until it happens. -
Date: Wed, Mar 25 2009 19:33:51
gratz minwoo!
i was pretty sure, that u'll win
but i'm a bit unhappy with the points... 155-171... there is a big gap. i thought, that it's a bit closer. but it seems, that you were clearly better than me.
there are some nice battles in this round =)
go minwoo, make the GPC happy! -
Date: Wed, Mar 25 2009 19:34:44
We can't compare two different matches. Scores is counted different, somehow.
For example. How the hell Katix R1vid could be the best of entire WT? I mean, 191points?Even I could copy that... -
Date: Wed, Mar 25 2009 19:38:07
but in one battle you can count the score.
the score makes the battle
in this specific battle i had 155 points, minwoo had 171 points, so he was 16 points better than me.
i thought about 5 points or so, but it's ok, now i can concentrate on my final tests in school
maybe it's better
i think minwoo will do it =)
GOOOO -
Date: Wed, Mar 25 2009 19:41:04
Taeryong won
I hope no one holds back too much this round, especically Eriror. -
Date: Wed, Mar 25 2009 19:54:47
Well, pretty much like I though, except for S777, and gollumsk8 (had no idea here to be honest)
My predictions:
Minwoo Vs Fratleym: I'm not quite sure.... but far, in the tournament, Minwoo seemed to had better combos overall, but I know Fratleym can be just as amazing as Minwoo... personally I hope Frat ^^" but no idea~
Dongza vs Answer: I guess I'll go with Dongza here, Though Answer still has a chance here.
Supawit127 vs Eriror: I'll go with Eriror- Great difficulty with amazing 1p2h skills. I'm really looking forward to see Supa's combo though, he has some amazing power tricks...
Spinnerpeem vs Taeryong: I'm afraid I'll have to say Peem... Taeryong just can't seem to be able to create better combos, and all his vids in this tournament were quite basically the same..
This is going to be an awesome tournament ^^ -
Date: Wed, Mar 25 2009 20:07:44
Minwoo, i don't want to say anything else, Fratlyem is a great great spinner, but Minwoo is ...too good, i'm gonna to do some math equations here, lol
Minwoo=super creativity + great difficulty + pretty nice style + beautiful execution
Fratlyem=super creativity + ok style +sometimes not so good execution
so Minwoo, lol
Answer, i'm confident on this, even thou i also like Dongza a lot,
but Answer for me =super amazing style+ lots of creativity+ high difficulty
Dongza=good style+not so much creativity+ok difficulty
So Answer
Eriror, but it's gonna be pretty close, supawit still have a chance
Eriror=nice style + good difficulty + ok creativity
Supawit=not so special style + high difficulty + some creativity
so it's a pretty close battle for me
last one i don't want to do....imao Tareyong shouldn't beat wcy, and he is definently gonna to lose this round with peem -
Date: Wed, Mar 25 2009 20:21:59QUOTE (Raem @ Mar 25 2009, 02:55 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Sure, Minwoo does crazy tricks, but he is sloppy... Frat REALLY can take it.
you can say almost the same thing but for frat...
exchange Frat and Minwoo, replace crazy by complex -
Date: Wed, Mar 25 2009 20:24:12
ok i think this answers the question on my vote
THPSC ftw
3> Minwoo -
Date: Wed, Mar 25 2009 20:32:21
Minwoo vs Fratleym: Although they're both sloppy at times throughout their combos, I think Minwoo's gonna be able to take this one...
Dongza vs Answer: Not sure at all about this one....
Supawit127 vs Eriror: Wow, tough opponent for Eriror... those Thaispinners are doing unbelievably well this tournament. Personally, I hope Eriror would win, but I really don't know since THPSC is doing much better than I had expected. Out of all of the thai spinners, i like supawit the most... so I dunno, I can only wait and see what comes out of this round
Spinnerpeem vs Taeryong: Spinnerpeem. As much as I don't like his spinning all that much.... Taeryong's combo from the previous rounds had just disappointed me too much =\ (Dunno how even managed to pass Round 3...) -
Date: Wed, Mar 25 2009 20:40:25
Minwoo,Dongza,Supawit127,Spinnerpeem
THPSC go go go!
-
Date: Wed, Mar 25 2009 21:47:46
I hope that Dongza wins against Answer, I'd like to see him go all the way
-
Date: Wed, Mar 25 2009 21:50:12
lol im amazed at how the 3 thai spinners didnt face each other when there are only 8 people left...
anyway this will be a great round for sure -
Date: Wed, Mar 25 2009 22:18:11
Erirawr ftw.
-
Date: Thu, Mar 26 2009 01:30:05
Minwoo vs Fratleym: Since wcy lost i'm very disapointed with these "judges" and i think they attitudes make the results pretty random when top spinners face each other so who knows? Depends really on if the judges prefer either complex tricks or hard spin transfers. Seriously, after that i believe the results lost they worth.
Dongza vs Answer: Considering the combos sent so far i believe this is easily Dongza's. More difficulty and a little bit faster.
Spinnerpeem vs Taeryong: This is easily spinnerpeem's. I know i'm being repetitive but it would have been really more interesting to see peem vs wcy.
Eriror vs Supawit127: The hype match of the round. Technically speaking i believe supawit127 can do harder stuff, but eriror seems to have a lot of potential and if he works hard this match is gonna be epic. -
Date: Thu, Mar 26 2009 05:42:15
...Why are you all so sure Supawit has higher tricks than Eriror?... He does busts, then he does some handarounds. Eriror's difficulity is definitely not lower than that
.
And about Frat vs Minwoo I am still going for Frat... -
Date: Thu, Mar 26 2009 05:50:57
this is unfair.... s777 should have won.
-
Date: Thu, Mar 26 2009 06:12:15
predictions: Minwoo, Dongza, Eriror, Spinnerpeem
minwoo vs fratleym: fratleym will probably have something new and amazing, but i don't think it'll be enough to beat minwoo...
dongza vs answer: dongza's spinning has done well to beat more powerful opponents than answer
peem vs taeryong: about time taeryong was beaten, he didn't really deserve to win some of the previous matches imo
eriror vs supawit127: THE match of this round gogogo ERIROR ftw XD supawit seems to have run out of ideas, i think eriror can do a lot better than he did in previous rounds
(wow THPSC has 3/8 spinners left ) -
Date: Thu, Mar 26 2009 06:31:32
i thought that dongza beat answer, eriror will probably be able to beat supawit in terms of difficulty and style, i like frat's style but i didn't know what to choose cuz both frat and minwoo incredibly sloppy at times, and peem would definitely beat taeryoung...taeryoung simply hasn't improved enough to get very far
-
Date: Thu, Mar 26 2009 07:24:36
-I dont know about minwoo and frat, cuz minwoo's spinning is pretty.. sloppy to me, but frat's spinning is pretty weird. But minwoo's spinning is pretty high in difficulty, so... minwoo. ><
-As for dongza and answer, I feel that dongza should be able to make a combo to pwn answer easily lol.
-Between eriror and supawit, I think eriror has a better chance of winning as both his difficulty and style can win supawit IMO. This is of course, unless supawit makes a crazy combo that no one has seen before.
-Peem should win this with ease, IMO taeryong shouldn't even have won wcy in the first place. -
Date: Thu, Mar 26 2009 07:55:40
woot, not so many spinners for me ahahah
Well I actuallydo think I have no chances but I always feel that way.
I guess I'm the only french left, FPSB is behind me, gives me strength wooaghahagaghah (Hulk Shout)
Seriously, has someone seen that Eriror and I are the only ones that made on the final last WT (so 2 years ago)?
It actually means a lot to me, it's like even 2 years after, people are still interested by the spin we're doing.
It's hard to stay tuned in penspinning and it's a really nice award to me to have reached the 8th best spinners (according to 5 judges)
Anyway there's only 8 videos left so now, least I can do is to give my best ! -
Date: Thu, Mar 26 2009 11:25:20
btw i don't know if you guys noticed
but we're only halfway through the tournament. -

For both best of us, three videos are remaining..
Amazing^^ -
Date: Thu, Mar 26 2009 12:45:02
argh
its really hard to decide but
FRATLEYM VS MINWOO = MINWOO (80%)
ERIROR VS SUPAWIT127= SUPAWIT127 (50% GO AND BEAT ERIROR!!!!)
DONGZA VS ANSWER = DONGZA (80%)
TAERYONG VS SPINNERPEEM = SPINNERPEEM (80%)
thats all.gif)
-
Date: Thu, Mar 26 2009 12:46:31
Minwoo vs Fratleym -> i never really "appreciated" frat's spinning, so -> Minwoo
Dongza vs Answer -> well Answer probably is one of my favourite spinners, and these 2 are really good, so i gotta include favouritism here ^^ -> Answer
Supawit127 vs Eriror -> hmm, i guess eriror can probably win if he has lots of stuff which he hasn't shown. i mean, a difference of 18 points between eriror and supawit in R3, wtf is up with that man.. -> 50/50
Taeryong vs Spinnerpeem -> peem, nothing more to say -
Date: Thu, Mar 26 2009 14:23:34
According to me, Peem and Answer has nothing more to show in this tournament.
I'm actually battling the only spinner left who has a decent originality
Others are excellent spinners but are not gonna show new materials later in this competition...
But it's not a concept competition so it's ok, I guess.. -
Date: Thu, Mar 26 2009 14:55:39
I really think some of the people here underestimate Frat. I mean, yeah, even I'm not sure he'll win (sorry Frat >_<" ) but saying he has no chance is not realistic I believe. I still think he has lots of amazing stuff to use, and I hope he'll do his best ^^
-
Date: Thu, Mar 26 2009 15:09:06
haha crazy battle
go frat and supawit =] -
Date: Thu, Mar 26 2009 15:36:00
Minwoo vs Frat will be fantastic!
Erirornal and Taeryong are going through to the semi finals.
Not sure about Dongza's chances being quite as high as some are suggested in this thread. Will be close.
Edit: Haha at all you people who voted spinnerpeem. He's going down! -
Date: Thu, Mar 26 2009 15:37:34
Supawit vs. Eriror: This is going to be close. DON'T HOLD BACK ERIROR!
win fo shissle: Minwoo, Peem, and Dongza -
Date: Thu, Mar 26 2009 17:47:56
Seriously -
why I have to face all those creative guys on those 2 Rounds >___<
@Frat:
Come on - seriously you cant say I am one who has some decent originality (I know I am not)- Peem is to me more original - cause R1 I NEVER saw sth. like that - never - or this beautiful aerial spread - or Answer's Style is original on itself - I think everyone here in this Round brings some cool creative Stuff - so plz stop talking like that ...
anyways - I always looked up to you since I started Spinning - I learned form your Tutorials - so its a great honour for me to face you - may the better one win! =] -

Aren't you underestimating the thai spinners? Personally i believe taeryong has no chance. But that's a matter of opinion anyway.

maybe he wants to be seen as a clear loser.

your combo is great, when I saw the point 155-171, that disappointed me ,I think it should be closer ,155 is too low,just like the judges hold back the point this round too. wanna know how the judges thought... -
Date: Thu, Mar 26 2009 23:48:35
I think Taeryong might actually win now... I know he can do better, and so far, he's been doing enough to just get by... and saving the best for last. (I hope)
IMO... Spinnerpeem seems to be doing pretty good, but now, most of his combos consist of lots of busting and a semi-impressive combo in between. -

frat, supawit, but also taeryong and dongza for the win x)

Date: Mon, Mar 30 2009 05:25:42
eh, Minwoo vs Frat, I'm gonna have to say Minwoo on this (sorry frat xD) but minwoo's a monster, and his execution has gotten cleaner each round.
Eriror vs Supawit D: sorry EK but i have a feeling that supawit will take this one. Seems to me that the judges are really impressed by FL cont. hybrid crazy mega super uber duper bubble bomb tricks. all of supawit's combos look the same, and they are really difficult. Eriror may do some cool stuff too, plus he's more creative than just BUST BUST bUST BUST -filler- BUST BUST BUST, but i just kinda think that supawit will take this one.
answer vs dongza: i like answer and dongza equally, different styles i guess, ones a speed demon and one is uber smooth and has cool stuff. null////
taeryong vs peem: gg taeryong -

It's fun to see how things are made.

If Taeryong wants to win he´ll have to make a combo which is much better than the rounds before.
Spinnerpeem even won against s777 so I don´t think Taeryong got any chance.
The other matchs will end like this :
Minwoo - Fratleym -> Minwoo
Eriror - Supawit127 -> Eriror (very hard match)
Dongza - Answer -> Dongza (very hard match, too)
