    "SPINZ ONLINE TOURNAMENT

    SpinZ will be hosting our very own online Pen Spinning Tournament this Fall! It will be a multi-round elimination tournament and the first Pen Spinning tournament in the USA. CHECK BACK FOR MORE DETAILS!"

    by "first ps tournament in the USA" does that mean that it will be reserved for American spinners only?i know that this is probably about as much information as anyone knows, but if you learn more (or know more) about it, please post it here. Kam probably knows about it, but he wouldnt be allowed to disclose anything dry.gif

    Wuh oh. "Spinz Tournament" sounds to me like you have to use a Spinz pen to enter. If so, that'd suck.

    its too early to speculate about anything,

    tournament only starts in Fall, me think this thread is a bit too early.

    we'll have all the information when fall comes, I'm sure.

    yeah but that was for only spinners who spinned les than 6 months

    So? It's still in the US.

  11. Mats
    Date: Sat, Apr 26 2008 16:39:45

    I assume it means first open tournament in the US.

    I hope it's not reserved only for US spinners...

    Details in time though, details in time.

    Yeah, Vic's gonna own in the Spinz tournament. He's gotta be USA's best pen spinner.

    EDIT

    Oh, hey, Scott, you're from USA too. Nvm what I said then. Vic's gonna have competition.

    The odds of me beating Vic aren't that high.
    His smoothness, difficulty, and speed are all better than mine >:|

    the judges might just be normal people (rather then someone like Kam or Eso), which means that looking good will be all that matters (so pholord could rape imo tongue.gif )....but rlly....this topic should be closed lol.....way too far in advance

    I don't get how SPINZ and America relate. It's SPINZ made by the Japanese?

  25. Rorix
    Date: Sun, Apr 27 2008 06:25:37

    SpinZ is made by JAKKS Pacific, which is an American company.

    I think you mean Pen'z gear. Those are the pre-made Japanese pens.

    Vic's combos are more visually appealing than Pholord's and mine.
    IMO

    But that is off topic.
    I agree though, topic should be closed.
    What good is to come of speculation?

  28. Eso
    Date: Mon, Apr 28 2008 23:15:52

    I know I'd definitely be joining this one. Unfortunately, I'm like Genesis' worst spinner so I'mma have a hard time.

  29. mhig
    Date: Mon, Apr 28 2008 23:20:39

    i would .......
    try.. lol
    but i'll be so easily kicked out XD i can never make decent combos XD

    Vic rapes me regardless biggrin.gif Hes the cloud traveler of UPSB

    Yea you guys can expect me to join this tho. Theres actually quite a lot of Genesis members in the US now that I think about it.

    Date: Mon, Apr 28 2008 23:43:53

    their might be level sections like beginner, intermediate, and advanced depending on the length of time a spinner has been spinning.

  32. Rorix
    Date: Mon, Apr 28 2008 23:50:26

    But there would have no way to prove that you belong in a category.

  33. pholord
    Date: Mon, Apr 28 2008 23:51:19

    How long one has been spinning is not a good indication of skill. People just progess at different speeds and some put more time and effort into it than others.

  34. mhig
    Date: Mon, Apr 28 2008 23:56:59

    lol i would be so screwed if that happens... i've been spinning 2 1/2 years next may -.- like all ppl spinning THAT long are way better than me XD

  35. Flip
    Date: Mon, Apr 28 2008 23:57:04

    Hmm I might join.

    Date: Tue, Apr 29 2008 05:19:22

    ugh...i just realized that the only possibilty of this actually happening, is if Spinz is doing good.....damn, ill just hafta show off to some kids and make them buy some ~_~

    Dynamik, you seem to have strong opinions against Spinz...care to share why? Have you tried them?

  38. Dynamik
    Date: Wed, Apr 30 2008 10:31:23

    i guess i am a bit biased, sorry. i havent tried them nor do i want to buy them. i just think they are bad for pen spinning
