    First of all, what is the correct name of this trick?
    and secondly when doing the twisted sonic bust - bak rev, my understanding of it is you lift your index finger to allow the bak rev to spin and close it for the catch. But in twisted sonic triple bust do you close your index finger for the catch of the first bak rev and open it again for the second bak rev? or do you leave your finger open and go into the second bak rev?

    I just leave my finger out. Closing it would just result in a catch.

    I would think that it would be [Sketching Breakdown] Twisted Sonic Normal 1.5 23-12> Indexaround normal 1.0 12-12> Backaround Reverse 1.0 12-12> Backaround Reverse 1.0 12-12.[/Sketching Breakdown]

    It could also be backaround reverse cont. X2.

    you NEVER catch it back. it's like TA > FL TA x2.

    if not, it's like a cont palm down index around, non-fingerless. laugh.gif

    Probably one of the coolest tricks that I've ever seen, but I am having so much trouble with it!
    Yes, I HAVE seen Eso's tutorial.

    So is it that after you do the initial "bust", do you slide your finger upwards alon the barrel of the pen and tap it again?
    Or is it something else?

    a lot of people say just keep practicing and you'll do one in like 30 mins. This wasn't the case for me and i still have trouble doing it. but what i have found is the best way to do it is do a twisted sonic bust, then really make a big gap between your index and middle fingers (so they are at a 90 degree angle from each other). Then jerk your hand down and forward. Like at a 30 degrees below the horizontal. Most i've got with this is 2 bak revs after the initial twisted sonic bust, but thats good enough for now. anyway keep practicing and good luck. hope this helped.

    ... the way I do it is I just do the twisted sonic and as it's coming around I jerk the hand forward and let the pen slide back while going around my finger the second time...

    If you looked, you would have found Eso's twisted sonic bust-> bak rev tutorial

  13. shoeman6
    Date: Tue, Dec 4 2007 22:39:12

    he said he already looked at it and it didn't help... I find that after I learn some tricks and look at eso's tutorials they don't fit what i do...

  14. t3tsubo
    Date: Wed, Dec 5 2007 02:32:29

    im having trouble with this too, but i find that it works most of the time if i can catch the twisted bust with the cop of the pen mainly under the palm, so if youre using a bictory (or any other double cap mod), just top bit of the pen and the cap is showing, the rest is under your palm. Then a wrist flick done correctly will get you youre indexaround. or bak rev. whatever you new schoolers call it.

    I don't get what's so hard to understand about my tutorial. If anything, it's not the hand motion that's giving you problems. It's the timing and positioning of the pen before even attempting the Bak Rev. You raise finger 1 right after the pen is vertical with respect to gravity. Finger 1 will nudge the pen during the hand motion and shift the COB so that it will start rotating around it again.

    Another possible problem is that you aren't doing the initial Twisted Sonic Bust all that proper. The first Bust needs to have enough momentum so that you are able to react in time to raise your finger and it needs to be thrown in the direction towards your flap between 1 and 2.

    Date: Wed, Dec 5 2007 20:46:56

    when I do the double I don't really have to do anything because the pen jsut goes around twice if I start off with enough force, but I use a realy long pen so I dunno...
    rather than stick you finger straight out which kind of was shown in the french one I jsut make another back rev motion and the pen just goes around fer 2 rotations...

    nothings wrong with ur tutorial or hard to understand about it.. i just had some problem with the catch and after like 3 days of practice.. i still couldn't catch..so i just asked for some tips thats all

    Eso's tutorial on twisted sonic bust - bak rev is awesome. My first twisted sonic bust-bak rev was in 10 mins after watching it.

    @WhiteFang: the catch is exactly the same as twisted sonic bust. If u can do twisted sonic bust then u should be able to do the twisted sonic bust - bak rev catch.

  19. 4GO57O
    Date: Thu, Dec 6 2007 08:21:17

    hmm...for the catch...it should just be like after 0a bust...you know...I'm having an easier time with TW Sonic bust 1.5 > bak rev...uh how do you call it?the one with the IA being 1.5?


    EDIT: YES I FINALLY DID ONE!!well how I answered the above question is because of the feeling of catching TW sonic bust 1.5 > bak rev

    eso, i haven't seen other tutorials from you so im not gonna criticize, but on this one, i guess i see where people see confusion.

    firstly, in 9 minutes of video, you don't perform the tricks even one time. i think you should have performed it one time, and then adding slow motion. i think thats the most helpfull.
    the person i gave my tutorial understood the move in the few first sec of the video even if he doesn't understand french.

    secondly, you learn how to do the second bak with a fingerpush.thats a good way to do it, but i guess people prefer to learn it with the second bak performed fingerless, so the whole portion where you speak of the gap between 1&2 etc...is kinda inapropriate.the whole explanation you give is very accurate, but i guess thats add confusion in peoples mind

    on another hand, its very cool you talk about common problems, i ve never thought of that and i should have because its very usefull.

    I'm not insulting your video.
    I think that it was the positioning of my finger after the initial bust.
    I don't think that I hit the pen right in order to do the bak rev.

    Sonic Bust and Twisted Sonic Bust are two different things.

    Sonic Bust @ the wiki

    Twisted Sonic Bust is a Twisted Sonic > Fingerless Fingeraround
    ex.
    Twisted Sonic 23-12 > Fingerless Indexaround

  26. K4S
    Date: Sun, Feb 24 2008 05:19:29

    If you can do twisted sonic bust > bust then clearly you know the concepts of how it's done so if you want multiple busts you just have to practice...

    bust and bak rev are the same thing.

    mine jumps a little too, it kinda leaves the hand and keeps moving upwards... but i seem to catch it (every 1 in 1000 tries) somehow

  30. Crzyazn
    Date: Mon, Feb 25 2008 23:11:17

    continuous arounds with 1 rotation always get some "air"

    if you look closely Nory's bakrevs they are leaving the finger but he has such fine control over this that linking is no issue

    I can do Twisted Sonic Bust > Bak rev every two tries or so. Difficult trick but a very good ending to combos.

  39. Eso
    Date: Mon, Apr 7 2008 14:57:33

    The trick is to have the pen stay in the same relative position with each Bust. After the 2nd bust (Tw. S Bust > Bak Rev), you have to start the same hand motion for the 3rd Bust. The hard part is keeping track of the pen's position as well as keeping a steady hand. I find that only concentrating on 2 things help me: 1) Whether the pen has gone under finger 1; 2) if finger 1 has slid to the end of the pen to start the next Bust

    Hope this helped.

    shouldn't the correct notation be twisted sonic bust-> fingerless bak rev?
    because you don't catch the pen after you do the bust

    JC and I were discussing this. I've been able to do the double bust for a short while now.
    I perform my busts palm down, but he does his almost vertical. So far he has yet been able to do a double bust.
    I've explained to him the positioning needed, but he still insists on doing it his way, and thusly insists on failing.

    TL;DR: Do it palm down.

    I do my bak revs palm down so, yeah you can.

    My bak revs used to have a slight pinch feel after each bak rev -- it was like a pinch catch, but the feeling went away after a while.

    A bak is fingerless anyway so that's redundant.

    should the first motion around the indexfinger (the first bust) be done as an indexaround or a bak rev?

  53. Dark Angel-REX
    Date: Tue, Feb 24 2009 10:52:43

    you don't really push with fingers.

    Once you do Twisted Sonic Bust, you make a circular motion with your index finger (like writing a circle in air with the index finger) so that the pen is repositioned and could make another bust.

    But you have to practice this a lot to get it right.

    i agree they are hard to learn, especially triple busts. it gets kinda boring since so many spinners think its all about multiple busts, cont arounds and so on.

    i rather focus on other tricks, though i could learn multiple busts if i practice harder.

    guys i have an advice, for doing multiple busts i prefer you use a signo tipped mx.. Or any single sided mod.. Start with the grip side of the mx (hgg with tip) then the weight of the backcap ( rsvp cap with rsvp grip) .. will help in performing multiple busts. Just try it out..

    At the top of this page, vic posted a video of Ruin's method of doing busts, and as was already mentioned, this is the way a lot of people do 100+ busts. I'm sure there is another way, but the key is to get each bust to be a consistent motion. Another thing I notice from watching Ruin's vid is that his busts are a lot slower than other people's.

    also note how his finger movement is more circular than most. this is the way the pen hardly leaves finger, which reduces errors and improves consistency...

    as opposed to most other spinners who move hand up and down more, rather than finger. xD

    the pen is almost always in contact w/ my finger except when i push my index finger forward, it kinda "jumps" from the pen

    so i guess everywhere but the front bottom part of the index finger

    Date: Sat, Dec 26 2009 02:24:25

    There are many tutorial teaching you how to do X Busts, basically logically think about it first... as the bust is going around you need to push down again to keep it going again. try 2 first and increase as you get it down. If you still don't get it just do a little reasearch and you'll find quite a few video and written tutorials explaining specifically how some people explain it's done. wink.gif

  124. Shakenbake

    from my knowledge there is certain way to achieve multiple

    supawit: if you slow it down, he flick his wrist

    me: i rotate my entire forearm, it gets me 5-6 busts constantly

    its just practice with what you feel confurtable

  127. RH
    Date: Sun, Dec 27 2009 15:00:09

    yes various styles will bust differently. like if you watch supawit and spinnerpeem, you will notice its further up on the finger. ive tried this and this is how i bust and the pen is slightly more "glued" to the finger than when you bust like a jap person(kuzu or seven) where its futher down and its harder(personally) and doesnt stay as close to the finger.

  128. Iota
    Date: Sun, Dec 27 2009 19:19:42

    take the other fingers out of the equation. the imba rev goes around the middle finger entirely, to end up in 12 again, just as an indexpinkybackaround reverse would. the pass rev is part of the trick, but im pretty sure we're talking about the same thing. i used to have videos up but the upsb videos are gone so i can't upload it until i get my computer back

    Thats not completely true. Nory does them at the very front, and hes from Korea. Along with other Koreans.

    No matter what you have to rotate your index finger, and Peem doesnt just rotate his index finger, he rotates his entire arm. Rotating your entire arm will result in slower busts. Supawit uses only his index finger and a slight wrist flick, thats why his busts are so much faster.

    hm i guess maybe koreans do it up on their finger too i guess which means i was wrong. but that was just an example of where busts can occur but thanks for pointing out that vic wub.gif. well i guess now i know why my busts are so slow

I think it stems from my learning of cont baks before the other cont tricks in which you rely on pen contact a lot more to bring the pen back a round.= \

    How so you get it at the vry front?When i try, it just slowly go to the bottom.The pen is like glued to my fingers when the pen is near to the bottom.But i can do like 16 or above when it is at the bottom.


    i use to be like that, but now i bust near the top of my finger(because i wana be a thai styled spinner) what i found is that after the first bust, you pull your finger back a little and continue busting. for me, this causes the pen to stay near the front.

    I can do around 2-3 busts. Is it better to leave the middle finger out to catch the pen and push it again (like in eso's tut) or is it better to leave it in and only use the index?

    I find it that leaving your middle finger to support the pen is easier than not using the middle finger at all

    HA! I'm not the only one happy.gif

    Yeah that's what I do to but everyone makes fun of me here for it huh.gif probably because I learned from eso as well ( it was a few years while ago)

    I'm pretty sure using your middle finger is improper for busts, and if you're just learning I wouldn't do it, as it is a large hindrance for me now having to relearn my busts (spent about 2 days so far and can sometimes get a normal double bust without middle finger support)...

    the point of a bust is that is FL meaning no finger contacts it( other than the index because it has to spin around something). so its advised to leave the middle finger in and use only the index.

    what?!!!!! essense's way isnt correct. the bust is FL meaning it goes around 1 finger only w/o any other fingers contact. 2. this is multiple bust discussion, but gratz on your 4-5 busts biggrin.gif

    what's weird though is that I am getting the trick, but I feel all i am doing is jerking my hand upwards at a 45 degree angle towards me and its seems to be working...

    i can get 2 and sometimes 3 but not very consistent with them =/ that's why we practice =]

    At you? Usually it's jerking away from you but you could pull it toward you before "throwing" ur finger outward but idk. Btw somewhere in this threAd are examples of how I, supawit, and peem bust. That could help you. biggrin.gif. But practice=more busts

    If you keep pulling in,wont your hand be like in a awkward position? biggrin.gif .

    Yeah I saw Eso's tutorial on it and i suppose his concept of giving the pen enough room to spin on kind of hit me. I imagine that I am actually pulling back and pushing forward with my finger but it feels I am just pushing back.

    I also want to remember to loosen my wrist, I sometimes feel that when im bust my wrist and hand kind of become locked to each other. When I master this I think it will give it that touch of finesse

    this totally goes against the +1 rule but. +1, i forced myself from doing jap busts( down on the finger[i was use to it when i learned]) to thai(up on the finger[my want to be style]) at first you will be screwed but after like a week of practice they were normal and i now bust semi thai i guess :/

    for me its easier to thai bust. but just do what feels confortable. i feel jap busts are the most confortable(down on the finger) and also the jumping is for thai busts and korean busts. only. you just need to find your own way to make your busts confortable and continous(everyone has their own secret)

    either style of bust, it's easier to do more if you slow down slightly to increase control and calm down~

    multiple aerial busts are way harder (unfortunately) ohmy.gif

  163. RH

    no theres thai, korean, and jap i believe. plus its mostly just practice i believe and finding a way to bust so that you get more, fits your style, and feels confortable( this will vary for everyone). and ISAE, everyone busts at different speeds.

    Some thai spinners have korean style, some japs have thai style, some koreans have thai style... really you cant group styles together if not all of one community does it one way.

    I've found that when I go for >2 busts, the pen slants at an angle from my finger, not perpendicular but more like -/-... Is it optimal to bust like this, or should I focus on making the pen perpendicular to my finger more like -|-?

    I get 3x maybe 1 out of 10-20 tries.

  166. EssenceOfLife

    I have a question and maybe a new hybrid trick.

    So I can do multiple busts but latly Ive tried A double rotation single bust. Basically the pen does 1.0 spin on top of my index finger then it goes around and I catch. Its a total of 2.0 rotations with only going around the finger once (even though you can spin it on top of index finger for as many rotations as you want.) Its almost like bust interrupted half way through by a shadow but it just spins on the index finger. If this has already been invented waht is the notation. And sorry if this is unclear.

    P.S I have no camera to take a video of it.

    wait till all the momentum is at your right hand side of your index after the bust, then gently tilt your finger a little diagonally-right upwards (no exageratting movement) so it should'nt be flying in you face , all i can say to keep track of your pen and you finger is to keep it slow really :\

    Definently a COG=COP mod (double sided). One sided mods momentum is rarely perfectly even making it alot harder to do multiple busts.

    im not sure if this is simple or advanced so sry if im wrong, but im having trouble with even 2 busts. I'm not exactly sure when to go for the second bust and im also not exactly sure what kind of motion to use. When i do get it i can never catch it and ive been sitting here practicing for over six weeks now...help me...please.

  184. Anderfreeb
    Date: Wed, May 19 2010 01:57:03

    One, this is an advanced trick so ur good there.

    Two, there are already like a bajillion threads on this, but this http://www.upsb.info/forum/index.php?showtopic=4142 is where you should have posted, but w/e I'm not a mod.

    Three, I give the push for the second bust by pushing down (assuming ur doing it palmdown) right when I would have caught it for one bust. You kinda have to slide the finger ur pushing with up to the end of the pen before the push to get it to rotate around ur finger again. As for the catch, if you get push right it should fall into place and u just have to close ur fingers, so focus on getting the push right...I hope that made sense.

    EDIT: The above post and this one were apparently moved so "Two" is no longer valid.
