    i'm talking about tricks that take like five seconds to learn

  9. BananaKetchup
    Date: Sun, Mar 2 2008 02:26:32

    no trick will take 5 secs to learn... cos you'll drop at least once and picking it up will take bout 5 secs.


    also how did baks take so long for you to learn? It took me maybe a week to get them and anuther day to get neobaks

    Let's step it up with tricks I learned in 5 minutes after knowing what it was [or before, lol]

    IndexPinkyBackAround Reverse 2.0 12-34
    Flick
    Scissor Spin

  32. Novastrike
    Date: Mon, Mar 3 2008 18:40:09

    No such thing as easiest trick for me.
    Everything comes with practice.

    Date: Tue, Mar 4 2008 01:02:54

    LOL..a few people here need to learn to read carefully.

    This post is about tricks that "newbies" (meaning they do not pen spin or have just started) can learn very easily.

    So I'm pretty sure 95% of the posts in this thread are unrelated.

  34. Missle_Z
    Date: Tue, Mar 4 2008 03:54:15

    No, I think YOU should read better.

  37. cluu1
    Date: Wed, Mar 5 2008 01:47:24

    imo pass has to be the easiest trick if you can't do pass you fail at life..

  38. Frip
    Date: Wed, Mar 5 2008 01:47:57

    I would go with the "Drop".
    It's nice.

  39. AntonWebsters
    Date: Wed, Mar 5 2008 03:10:38

    Passarounds are easy too.

  40. xxdefinitionxx
    Date: Wed, Mar 5 2008 03:41:22

    infinity

    that was the second trick i learned...

    definitely one of the easiest...

  41. TeddyTemptation
    Date: Thu, Mar 6 2008 12:57:45

    i put a question mark next to infinity to see what peeps think

    isnt that devil's sonic? demon sonic is sonic~twisted sonic hybrid

    Date: Sat, Mar 8 2008 13:20:22

    Yaa what Vall3y said. Demon's sonic is easy but devil's is way more advanced!

    I doubt a person who has never spun could do any of them first try especially infinity, flick, and scissor spin.

    shadow took 3 mins, flush sonic took 1 hr

  50. Sigurd W
    Date: Sun, Mar 9 2008 19:55:52

    I would say combination of Charge and Fingerpass (Twisted Sonic) variations and combinations.
    there is really nothing to confuse you. and its easy to get a descent flow so it looks cool too! tongue.gif

    i learned bak in like 7 mins..

  52. minche
    Date: Sun, Mar 9 2008 21:23:53

    well if you mean the easiest trick if you know nothing then it's infinity and TA
    but if you know fundamentals than twisted sonic is very easy

  56. Thewave
    Date: Tue, Mar 11 2008 19:33:49

    I would say wiper and fingerpass, while they are easy to learn they are hard to master.
    Another trick would be the Bak, and I actually tough Bak to someone who knew only how to do a TA and a sonic-he learned it pretty fast.

    Fingerless TA is easy to learn...and once you do it once you can do it almost every time after...me at least.

    [rant]
    I'm sorry but can you stop bitching please? You make this thread asking for easy tricks. Every time someone is kind enough to drop down on this thread and give some advice on tricks, you either reject their opinion or say the trick is too hard and you will say you need something faster and easier. Well news flash penspinning isn't about the easiest tricks you can just pick up and be cool. Its about hard work, discipline, and creativity.

    I'm not saying you cant make a thread like this its just that once you do prepare to embrace other peoples opinions. Don't just sit there and say "Oh, its to hard I've already tried it" and put some time into doing something. If you keep acting like this then you will go nowhere until you put time and discipline into your spinning otherwise you can just stop and kindly leave.
    [/rant]

    I don't mean this rant to be mean. Just please be more constructive with your posts. And actually think about what you are saying to people when you just sit there solemnly and reject everything that they can provide for you.

    And to be constructive even though you are just going to reject them in the end:

    Shadow
    Fake Double
    Weis Backaround

    Date: Thu, Mar 13 2008 05:25:49

    sangara, people keep on posting really difficult tricks such as shadow and demon's sonic, which some people don't even understand.

    infinity has already been rejected several times

    and the tricks i'm looking for those that a supreme nublet can learn after just seeing the first basic concept. i put infinity up there and someone said it wasn't easy so i took it down :/

    also, i'm not asking people to post easy tricks, i said if they know any more then i they can post them. Meaning that i am giving them permission to post saying that i will put it in my list, so i am not directly asking them

    pwned

  65. sangara
    Date: Thu, Mar 13 2008 05:45:15

    Hey Teddy here's a concept:

    Actually say what you are making this list for. How was I or anyone else supposed to know that you were making this list to help people. We were all going off assumptions some thought of tricks for you to learn others realized that it was for everyone who needed some new tricks. When you say stuff like "It took me 3 months to learn bak" some one (like me) would assume that this list is indeed for you. But yet after rejecting peoples ideas for a week you still stray from clarifying why this is actually here. This is what I mean about not thinking about your posts you assumed that the person you were replying to had the same idea that you had in mind. But, newsflash not everyone will interpret things the same way you do or I do. Which in fact is the only reason why I posted.

    So what have we learned today Teddy?

    A. Clarify what you are doing in a thread
    B. Think about what you are posting
    C. Different people will interpret things differently

    Now: [/rant]

  66. TeddyTemptation
    Date: Thu, Mar 13 2008 05:57:00

    i'm making this list for the plain and simple fact to say which tricks in combos are the easiest to do.

    if i think the trick is somewhat easy i will put it up and if people don't think it's easy that can tell me to take it down.

    now what trick would you like me to put up? happy.gif

  67. Xero
    Date: Thu, Mar 13 2008 18:55:24

    You can't make a concise "easy trick list".
    These are based on a matter of opinion, obviously.
    You may as well post every trick in that "list", because I think that the Demon's Around is easy, and you don't.

    Same with Scissor Spin and Flick

    Oh. they're easy tricks.

  69. ToXiC

    This thread is complete failure..

    What is this thread even about? Easy tricks as in someone who does not even know a single trick should be able to get? Or just easy tricks to do in general for a pen spinner? State it in the title of the topic, otherwise confusion will occur.

    Anyway, I do agree infinity is easy, I have taught 2 of my friends who have never spun in about 30 minutes.

    Put double charge up like i suggested earlier! It's easy, just a twisted sonic and a pass. Got it after a day of practicing. If you know twisted sonic, this trick is fairly easy. Twisted Sonic is easy, just a charge and a pass rev i think meaning double charge is a charge>pass rev>pass?

    I started slow with a twisted sonic then just a pass. I slowly linked it up faster and voila after a few hours you get used to it. At first it looks a bit unstable but well that means you've done it atleast, you just gotta improve on it better.

    Ext TA is confusing! But triangle pass is simple and easy.
