i am not sure this is where to post but
WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON DARCY'S (TWPS) STYLE??? -
Date: Tue, May 12 2009 22:52:59
Seems like everything he does is fingerless
-
Date: Tue, May 12 2009 23:02:38
yeah there's been stuff on this before, i say he speeds up his clips. IMO they look unnaturally fast, almost jerky
-
Date: Tue, May 12 2009 23:13:15
I
his style. 
I'd say his wipers look a bit awkward, but the way he performs his tricks are unique...I've never seen anyone else spin with a similar style to Darcy. -

I fucking can't stand it one bit. To me, his spinning resembles the actions of one someone picks up one of my mods and acts like they're really good. It's hard to even distinguish tricks from the mess, it honestly just looks like he's waving his hand back and forth and flailing it around. I couldn't watch more than 20 seconds of that video.

i watched his inf tutorials on TWPS, he spins like that, he doesn't speed up the video

He's not spinning the pen, the pen's spinning his hand... lol

God, I know what you mean. I find Darcy's spinning pretty repulsive. Not aesthetically pleasing at all. -

Tbh I can't watch the entire video without laughing. But when he slows the video down you can see that he actually is doing tricks in the combos but yah seriously it's like the pen is spinning his hand. And does anyone know the name of his mod with the "tail" on one end?

This is probably some of the strangest spinning I've ever seen
-
Date: Wed, May 13 2009 03:58:28
sexeh... not really

Well, his style gets more fascinating the more I watch his clips, this doesnt mean I like it.
Its just like WTF is he doing there?!
Maybe in RL it looks absolutly great, but on camera its... ugly -
Date: Sun, May 24 2009 06:50:20
the first few seconds was interesting, but then it just became flail
its kinda like pyralux on too much caffience XD
i'ld say that if its only used for a short period of time in a combo, i'ld say it might be pretty good
but all the time it gets pretty flaily and a mess -
Date: Sun, May 24 2009 07:25:51
you sure he's pen spinning? looks more like balisong. XD
-
Date: Mon, May 25 2009 23:44:39
LoL.
First 20 seconds were funny...next 30 were awkward...and i was unable to watch more combos lol.
IMO I don't like it, it only seems like a way of hiding mistakes in a combo lol, as k-ryder said, in a short period of time in a combo would be nice, but not all time. -
Date: Tue, May 26 2009 04:23:35
lol wtf.
i looks like hand spinning more. xD
seems kinda cool...but might seem very annoying to people
much too awkard.. -

this is EXACTLY why you shouldn't do drugs.... not really.
His hand jerks a lot and the pen looks like it's going to fly into face. -
Date: Thu, May 28 2009 09:17:55
reminds me of switchblade or butterflyknife spinning, i think it would look better if you saw it in real life, rather than a grainy low fps camera recording.
-
Date: Thu, May 28 2009 23:01:21
I think he was used to butterfly knife spinning before.. then he found a pen and started doing the butterfly knife tricks. lol
Really.. He needs a new style. -
Date: Fri, May 29 2009 11:34:17
i really like it
it's unique, fast and powerful ! and i d like to speak with him 
-
Date: Fri, May 29 2009 11:38:29
what is he doing anyway???
I see some infinities, wipers, nothing else??? -
Date: Sat, May 30 2009 06:13:50
it'll be hard to copy his style... plus, I saw "some" combos in there....
-
Date: Wed, Jun 10 2009 09:15:15
just watching seven's videos
some of his combos are more or less what i said
the flicky stuff being mixed in with "normal" spinning

He took your ordinary penspinning style and juiced it up.
Much of you don't like it is because you're probably not used to such movement in a penspinning video.
Yeah, you can't see what he's doing unless you look close BUT what if he purposely devised this style SO you would look carefully at his combos and see how much difficulty is really hidden under all the arm movement? Something you wouldn't do in your average combo.
It's strange, it's abstract, but most importantly it's unique. Me likey. -

Its... Different
Technically its skillfull, although it looks a bit wierd.
