    Hi UPSB I'm new to pen spinning almost entirely (been spinning for 2 weeks) and I can't seem to make any combos, other than sonic to thumb-round (I know thumb-round, reverse thumb-round, sonic, twisted sonic, charge, finger-pass and reverse fingerpass), and that's not even a combo. I have made a pen the "BICtory" with added grips, and I've found a good collaboration of clips featuring the BICtory, it is this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WZQtMlruQ3E

    I would like to start getting good at this but I can't even identify what moves are in each combo presented in the video and what moves I need to learn, if someone could watch the video and post a list of the moves in the combos used in the video that would be a real big help thank you! Also I would like a list of the moves in 3 other videos (short): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfEJjbDDt9k , http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kC5DMnE8f0U ,
    and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7mDWfc8MHok . Also another great ask, a massive help would be a complete list of all the pen spinning moves.
    Sorry if this post is in the wrong area, I couldn't think of anywhere completely relevant to it. Thank you so much whoever does help me with these issues I have, also any general advise would be nice as well ty!

    Welcome to UPSB first of all. ^^
    It takes time to develop the first combo, so I suggest learning more tricks before you try any combos. Good topic for tricks to learn:Link
    Or just do thumbaround harmonic, it's a combo xD
    A combo u could do: Thumbaround (TA) > TA rev > fingerpass 12-23-34-23 > sonic 23-12 > warped sonic 12-23 > twisted sonic 23-12
    Need to learn warped sonic though, but it isnt so hard since u know fingerpass and charge

    Complete list of trick (kudos to Mats): Click me

    Breakdown requests goes here: Link
    Can't really help on the breakdown, because I'm not good at recognizing tricks.

    Hope this helped biggrin.gif

    youtube akujinnoeso for Eso's tutorials (best tutorials) or alfreeman2 for Freeman's tutorials (for more advanced tricks) plus, there are lots of scattered tuts on youtube...


    about the moves list, that's quite....quite long.

    This thread shows a lot of the tutorials around.

    What helped me a lot also is the wiki page.

    I think you should learn tricks for now, maybe master all the twisted sonic and warped sonic variations on all fingers (baks and arounds too if you want) than think of combos. If you see a video with a trick you don't know that check out the thread below.

    Hope this helps!
