    Do you guys still remember the first time you heard about pen spinning, or the first time you tried it but failed or even succeeded at doing so. Do you guys still remember your first trick and the excitement you felt? How about the joy of building your first mod or completing your first combo? Is it still fresh in your mind or long forgotten?

    i remember the first time i saw a kid in my class spinning his pen. i was in japan, and pretty much all the kids knew at least how to do a ta. i wet home and learned ta, and looked up tutorials from eso and xero. as i got better, i made a bictory and 4 rsvp mxs, but despite my local grocery store having dr.grips, i thought i had too many pens. sad.gif i will regret that forever tongue.gif

    Like it was yesterday.

    Infinity didn't make sense to me. Learned the TA, made some RSVP V1s.

    Made a Bictory, thought it was amazing. Learned TA and fingerpass, then Sonic.

    sometimes i kind of wish i would remember how it felt like NOT being able to do a fundamental, or the sheer incapability of doing a reverse sonic and doing a sonic instead rolleyes.gif

    yeah. I remember I somehow came across Japen 1st.

    I was like Oh Sh-t, that's badass. Then found Pentrix, and then PSconclave when it owned.

    Learned all my tricks on there. From there I found UPSB v.2, never signed up, then moved onto UCPSB v2 (known as almightymalachi there).

    I remember the hardest thing for me was the god-damned sonic. That thing took forever. This was when the Dr. KT didn't even exist folks.

    When jetpens got dong-a sign pens, I shit bricks.

    oh the days smile.gif
