Date: Fri, Feb 15 2008 08:11:00
Alright well, I've noticed that everyone thats smart in my grade can atleast do the charge or even a thumbaround. Theres a guy that can do the charge, then i taught him the double charge. He learnt to do it in like, 1 or 2 days, and hes pretty smart. Im not saying that only nerds can do it...Nerd =/= Smart/genuis
What do u guys think? -
Date: Fri, Feb 15 2008 08:30:46
Im dumb as hell but i am pen spinner XD
Ok ok... i know few things - and im not dumb as tree or rock or something but im not at ''smart/dexter'' level. -

I think there are probably proportionally more smart people on this forum than you would find in a classroom. This would suggest that generally smarter people pen spin. I would say however, it's probably more because smarter people tend to be more introverted causing them to stay indoors more. This means they are more likely to spend time on the internet, and perhaps a lot of time at that. Eventually this leads to more smart people being on this forum than one would expect.
As for in the classroom, I would suggest that the smarter people perhaps find lessons boring, or think they do not need to pay attention in class. This leads to them finding ways to pass time in class and doing tricks with a pen seems to be one way.
I do however think, that anyone can pen spin; i don't think you need to be smart to do it. It's just that it's a hobby that suits the more introverted personality type and smarter people tend to be more introverted. -

According to blugy, I am some smart ass.
I learned TA faster then some of my friends who already learn it.
As for double charge, I spent less then a day to learn it.
Actually how well you do in pen spinning does not reflects on how smart you are. Some people just tend to pick up certain skills faster then others, that's what I think... -

Double charge is the ultimate thinking trick!
On topic: I do believe PS'ing requires patience and a bit of intelligence, but the amount of intelligence that it requires exists in most common people, but the amount of patience doesn't. So all PS'ers have a good amount of patience and that might correspond with intelligence. -

Thats a false assumption. How can you be so sure that those smart guys didnt happen to pick up PS on their own? What they are doing are fundamentals, some people even learnt TA without knowing the name of the trick. As for the guy learning double charge in 1 day, its not a good indicator of smartness=PS skillz. Double charge takes like 10 minutes to learn. Why dont you try teaching him a shadow or something, and see how long he takes. I dont think smart people=PS skillz, but Mats has a point that a higher percentage of people that PS are smart. -

That doesnt say much, and its quite unfair to use your self as an example to justify smart people= PS skillz. But its hard to emprically prove that smart people are good at PS, so its a matter of opinion i guess. -

i believe intelligence has something to do with penspinning abillity
take an extreme example: a monkey. now try and teach him pen spinning.
it doesnt mean you have to be a genius to do pen spinning, but the more intelligence the better you can learn, but its not the only factor.
this is all my opinion of common sense though, i dont have enough experience and knowledge to back this up -

Of course Pen-Spinning requires some intelligence, but that intelligence resides in most common people. -

Every person can be a PS, smart people will be better at it faster.

smart people aren't better at psing, they just have more free time and are bored in school(mostly).

It requires a special type of intelligence to improve faster in PS'ing than others, what I think it requires is spatial sight, some physics (realy basic and I mean realy) and some other skills that require hand control. -
Date: Mon, Feb 18 2008 07:40:07
My school is basically you know STUPID.
I could say I'm pretty smart. But, you know. Doesn't show in PS. -
Date: Mon, Feb 18 2008 09:45:04
the thing is:
smart people go to school...
so they have more time like people who begin to work with 17 oder 18 years...
that's the reason in my eyes.
but i wont say, that people who begin to work in young ages are stupid.
another reason might be, that smart people know who to learn something in a more strategical way.
firstly we should have a definition of "smart". there are many different meanings. -

Date: Fri, Feb 22 2008 11:23:06
Well many ppl say "nerd" when they see meh spinnin´. Well not true. I never learn at home, I have judo trainings 3 times a week, I play ping-pong alost every day. Whats so nerdy about that? Just because I can do sth they cant!? Its true that they arent the best students in class, but I´ve learnd my friend a sonic in a car while going to Croatia. He learnt him self rise/fall from than.
But back to the topic. YES, I think penspinning helps you think, therefore you are much smarter. -
Date: Fri, Feb 22 2008 14:11:55
hmm so then someone can define who is smart person and who not ?
If i have bad marks in school i am not smart ? Why unsmart people cant be better in PS ? It is not about who is smart and who not. It is about tallent, free time and training. Thats what i think. -
Date: Fri, Feb 22 2008 15:36:54
Smart ppl are those that dont have to learn much, so they have much more free time.
-

Wrong, you cannot define who is smart and who isn't, there are people who learn a certain topic faster than others and therefore they are better at a certain topic/subject than another person. I myself am not smart, and yet I catch everything faster than most people, I am a fast learner and I have a good memory I am not smart what-so-ever.
As I said to Vall3y-PS'ing requires a certain amount of intelligence that exists in almost every person in the world, what it requires is training time.Some need more time like me and some need less, but in the end-everyone can be a spinner, it just depends how fast the person learns a trick and how much patience that person has, and i believe those without too much patience won't be PS'ers (not certainly but probably). -
Date: Sat, Feb 23 2008 02:44:20
We have to define what kind of intelligence are we talking about here? Raw IQ points? Top in class? Ability to grasp new concepts? I guess the intelligence most people are talking about here is the ability to grasp new concepts which is important in PS.

Date: Sat, Feb 23 2008 03:44:23
Haha this thread is kinda funny...
I takes no at all talent at all in school to become a good penspinner... I really doubt that Einstein, Newton or Bohr would had been any better penspinners than anyone else if they tried... You dont learn a manual activity like that any faster by being good at grammar, math or science... It is totally different centers of the brain... One thing have to do with storing theoretical information and connecting it logically, the other thing is muscle memory and finger coordination...
No, the real reason why more smart people is drawn towards penspin is because they know, they are probably gonna spend a large amount of time the rest of their life in classroom or behind desk, and then they can just as well find something while sitting there... -
Date: Sat, Feb 23 2008 05:38:01

Date: Sun, Feb 24 2008 04:11:44QUOTEwhos bohr adn newton...? never heard of them
Bohr actually discovered that electrons in an atom can jump to different orbits when they gain energy. They jump from their ground state to their excited state and when they lose their energy the electrons release a photon or a quantum of light.
And i do think penspinning has something to do with smart people. Smart people actually have the time to learn new tricks whereas 'ordinary' people cbf and just do what they do. Saying this, i have known some people who let their penspinning getting in the way of their smartness or school work. -
Date: Sun, Mar 9 2008 06:05:31
When people watch some other's pen spin they like to have a go at doing it but only a small minority actually carry on with it. With that being said I think smarter people see pen spinning differently then your regular joe and this leads to people with a different mindset from normal people pursuing it. Generally those people tend to have a bit more intelligence but it isn't always the case.

I agree with DasIstJaStuhl, smart people can find a better way to learn something.
So they spent less time strugling with one problem.
Basically, they have a better learning curve...QUOTE (DasIstJaStuhl @ Feb 18 2008, 04:45 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>...

And i think the most appropriate definition for this smart is fast thinking peoples, or maybe creative peoples.
Not peoples with good marks at school. -

Date: Sat, Mar 29 2008 01:30:19
is it just me, or are there more idiots in the world lately.
that cant be good for penspinning hey.
hmm i do think u need a brain to penspin and understand that if nothings touching the pen it will fall to the floor.
but even though dumb people COULD penspin if they want to. i dont think they chose to.
i also think maybe smarer people spin because they could be bored in class and want something to do. -
Date: Sat, Mar 29 2008 04:15:35
Well, my spinning = my procrastination.
-
Date: Sat, Mar 29 2008 11:07:33
I don't think mesuring how fast you learn tricks being smart or not, I learned TA in 2 days but double charge in less than 5minutes, I understand the mouvements really fast but then I need to get my fingers to do it...
Spinning doesn't mean your smart, for me it's a pass time, my brother was obsessed with TAs when he was young and showed me my very first haduri video I thought it was awsome, but never could get TA down... Then I would draw to pass my bordem in class! A friend taught me TA, I started to understand the written tuts on the web and slowly was able to grasps all of it!
Then some people stop because they can't do it much in class, I get bored in class and there fore I spun my grades didn't drop so it encouraged me to continue...
Spinning in class might be for either the really smart or the dumb people who have given up on a subject, but its not all smarties are spinners etc... tho I agree with what mats said at the start. Or you just find it kick ass as a pass time and do it.
On another note I might be smart in class but in my videos i'm a mental retard, so it's not being smart

I know it's imperfect, but someone could look at penspinners' average test scores on standardized tests and compare it to general averages. I know that there are other methods of measuring intelligence, but that seems like the most objecting way out there.
-
Date: Sun, Mar 30 2008 19:42:47
I think that more people penspin if they are smarter. Most of the "less average" intelligence people dont care about it becuase they have girlfirends and cool cars and other stuff

I have to completely agree with that. Smart people want to learn new things and see the beauty in the way a pen spins. Not-As-Smart people think it's stupid to spin a pen. My sister and I are smarter than my brothers (especially in common sense)... guess who spins a pen. Seriously, I agree.

I agrizzle.
And not only do I have the same birthday as Einstein, my name is Isaac which relates to ISAAC NEWTON!!!
Anyways I only pen spin because I'm on a quest to be a master of all 'nerdy' manipulation type thingymabobbies that use your hand. Rubik's cube, FFR, DDR but that doesn't really use your hand, XCM, Juggling although that isn't really considered 'nerdy' in some peoples opinions, and of course pen spinning. I'm actually not that smart to be honest, I just have will power.
Will power FTW. -
Date: Tue, Apr 22 2008 15:12:54
Maybe smart people have more ambition and patience then "dumb" people? Where smart ambitious people are like "I AM going to do this!", whereas "dumb" people say "I can't do it, I give up.". That's my take on it.
-
Date: Wed, Apr 30 2008 21:46:03
Also, "smarter" people are more likely to take more difficult classes, which may involve more lectures or passive learning than a less difficult class, and so there are more opportunities for doing penspinning. Also, they may spend more time studying, which could give an opportunity for practice.
Also, it seems plausible that penspinners would tend to be kinetic learners, though I don't know what type of learning is most often used by "smarter" people. -

im smart compaired to most kids at my school. some are as thick as bricks.
and it took me maybe 2 weeks to learn the shadow.
it boils down to hand eye co'ordination.
and i have next to none.
i used to be in OT as proof. -

2 weeks to learn shadow isnt really that fast, but nm. You also need to understand how each trick works, besides having hand-eye coordination.

How can you be so sure that those smart guys didnt happen to pick up PS on their own? What they are doing are fundamentals, some people even learnt TA without knowing the name of the trick. As for the guy learning double charge in 1 day, its not a good indicator of smartness=PS skillz. Double charge takes like 10 minutes to learn. Why dont you try teaching him a shadow or something, and see how long he takes. I dont think smart people=PS skillz, but Mats has a point that a higher percentage of people that PS are smart.
Yeah, i guess that's kinda true. i picked up PS without knowing it o.O i just happened to see people doing TAs/TA Reverses and i got it. and then i understood that TAs were under Pen spinning. and i agree on the higher percentage of people that PS are smart point.QUOTE (BlacknWhite @ May 4 2008, 04:07 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Lol RI...
