    If you had an HTC phone you would never even think about doing this.

    Although I do think it's awesome.

    Yeah thats a given but its De'vo! FUCKING DE'VO! Show some respect kids!
    But seriously, does anyone have links to Kam's commercials? I know it was for Nokia, he did a wicked thumbspin with a Nokia 5300 and created "Explosion" with some all metal phone.

    Thanks for the Link over to this thread Chief Snake for Phone Spinning.

    If anyone has Bonkura's video of the clam shell spinning would like to see that (I imagine you could do something similar to balisong).

    Kam's Nokia thumaround commercial would be good to see as well (did he do normal / reverse or continuous ).

    The tricks are a lot harder on the phone then pen. The main problem is the phones are so heavy and keep twisting.. Even a simple finger pass is awkward at best. Thumaround forward kind of works for me but I can't get a reverse.

    I can do a modified ringaround middlearound and indexaround (drop most of the time) and an Indexaround reverse sort of works as well

    bookspin on the phones sometimes works but usually results in my phone flying across the room.

    Any other tricks people can do on phones would be appreciated.

    You did a thumbaround with your iPhone...? facepalm.gif

    Maybe you should consider how much you payed for that before you go spinning it... dry.gif

    More on cell phone spinning I posted some bad videos (reminds me of the early days of pen spinning when we were trying to work out exactly what you could do with a pen. What is interesting is there seems to be several tricks you can do on a phone you can't do on a pen and vise versa. I don't have a good webcam but will try and get some better videos and some combos as well. I think we need to use a similar naming structure that was created for pen spinning as this could become very popular.

    bookspin on a middle finger not a good video angle but shows how it spins on the tip of middle finger.
