   Presently, there is no documentation to show who started the pen spinning phenomenon. Parts of Asia and countries with Asians have already started habits of 'pen spinning', many only did tricks such as thumbaround and finger pass, back in 1990-1997. Around those time people only did fundamental, unlike today many other types of tricks, shadow, bakfall, twisted sonic bust, inverse sonic etc. Yet there is no document in who or where did 'pen spinning' started, by all means doing other than fundamental. Many people believe it originated in Korea then spread across Asia.
   The amount of pen spinning websites and forums have increased since 2006, opening up more regional boards from France, Germany, Japan and Korea. Tournaments have been organised on the internet, and live tournaments have been in Korea and Japan as well.
