This pen first caught my eye because of the smokey grey casing, long grip (with respect to its total length), and short clip. At the time I bought it for its looks and the strong click sound it possessed, due to the firm spring mechanism.

After using it in classes and performing Thumb Arounds and Finger Passes subconciously, I suddenly remembered this site, and decided to see where the Centre of Gravity was. To my surprise, the CoG was exactly at the Centre of the Pen when retracted.

Some spinners out there will find this pen too light, and could consider modding it. I have only been doing simple fundamental tricks with it.

I recommend trying out this pen if you need something to write with in class, but also want to spin it. The combination of its balance, looks, and the ability to write makes it a good choice for students.
