So how many times do you drop your pen when you plan a combo and record it?
I drop a lot. I'm somewhere around 40 times.
(this thread might have been made before, but i searched and found none.)

When I am filming a combo, my hands get all sweaty and I started being nervous... And that's why I can't file a good ps vid without 40+ failures

I usually drop quite a bit, well, back when I filmed and stuff. Nothing in the 40s range, but still something just short of that.
Now, I have no clue, I probably drop a ton more. -

idk. it depends.
overall: >100000000
maybe in each period of time (around 10 min. usually): about 10
when im trying to get a trick: about 30
if i film/under pressure: >50 -

It takes me a long, long time to film combos. I definitely drop more than 50 times, often much, much more

It depends on a lot of things for me, some combos take me less then 10 drops, others take a long tome for me to film, I don't know how many drops I do, but its probably at least in the 40+ range.
Some times I can spin and drop very little, other times I drop constantly. -

My hands get cold when i get nervous, so it's hard.
Probably a good 100 -

and a few minutes afterwards to get another... >.> -

for my australian tournament round 2 vid i dropped once...
but usually more, if i can be bothered filming same combo. after a few minutes i usually freestyle, and try filming the combo again a day or so later. -

Dropping is normal when learning a new trick. Dropping is normal when doing a combo. Dropping is normal even for the very best. Nuff said.

On a good day, I drop 0 or 1 times when freestyling and filming.
On an average day... Around 4/5 times.
On a bad day, however, it can go up to 15. Usually not a whole lot more, though.
When filming for important battles or collabs, it varies more. -

my record is around 150 to 200 i think. I tried to get a combo done in front of my camera for more than two hours. I dropped more than 150 times and afterwards i was pretty frustrated.
on average i drop the pen around 30-40 times sometimes even more. up to 60 or 70. -

This all depends on how well youve practiced the combo before filming it, doesnt it?
Well i get nervous when filming something serious so even if i have the combo down well ill usually drop well over 50 times. If im freestyling a combo its usually under 20. -

Way too much... my on camera combos are so much worse because I'll spend like 2 hours dropping something that I usually have down not on camera. >.<

When I'm filming, it's around 40-50. I usually spend a week or two practicing for the combo before I film.
