    I find myself doing it a lot now XD
    When I'm not practicing my TA or Sonic, or trying to do the charge I find myself doing the Fingerpass. XD
    And I have to say I am getting quite good at it. :]
    For starting three days ago that is XD

    EDIT: Well the title did ask if anyone found the fingerpass as addicting as I do, but the mods changed it :/

    I'm actually addicted to NeoSonic 12-TF > Charge TF > FL TA Rev, and it's quite annoying.
    But I think that a constantly improved fingerpass helps alot.

    I still can't charge ;-;
    I can get it started but I can't keep it going XD
    XD I can do that, it's kinda hard though because you have to (or at least I have to) stretch to get it XD
    Depending on how you do it anyway

    Really? I learn charge by accident. Well.. i cant explain how

    Date: Mon, Jun 9 2008 09:50:57

    nah, not really...maybe when i was learning sonic or ta and got sick of trying to learn them...in that time probably yes, but with time going you'll get less 'addicted', since you'll learn cooler tricks that need lots of practice wink.gif

    Ye, I'm also addicted to finger pass.
    But that's a good thing because I want it to be smooth and fast!

    Personnally I'm addicted to fingerless TA's. What I love to do is fl.TA rev, plus a little tap of the index to send the pen in TA normal. Continuosly.

    Or Thumbspin 1.5 to TA rev. Cool too.

    My fav. is TA and TA rev. I am also learning FL TA Rev, and like to learn it. smile.gif
    Most of the time when I have a pen, then I always do TA and TA rev without noticing. So I somehow get addicted to TA and TA rev tongue.gif

    There are only four so called 'fundamental' tricks. Namely, FingerPass, Charge, Sonic and ThumbAround. Many replies in this thread do not mention these tricks as being a 'favourite fundamental', in fact, it seems some persons are posting combinations!

    Personally, I think my favourite fundamental would be Sonic.

    It's because this thread's name used to be different, but then a mod changed it.

    i thought people covered this.
    although shadow 23-12 used to be known as a Sonic Normal 1.5 23-12.
    it is not a fundamental anymore it should be under the topic advanced tricks...

    anyway, even though i can do a bunch of tricks other than the fundamentals because ive been spinning for about 2.5 months now. i still find if im just spinning in a class at school or something like that i do combos made mainly of the fundamentals.

    the ThumbAround is the best by alot though.

  28. Xephyr
    Date: Sat, Jun 14 2008 14:04:33

    I do a TA without even thinking anymore, plus it was the first trick I ever learned so I'll have to go with that.

  36. someone
    Date: Mon, Jun 16 2008 23:08:47

    Pass still - I mean, come on, it's used in almost every combo and looks good!

    Date: Mon, Jun 16 2008 23:27:28

    There have been a lot of discussions about whether Infinity /wiper should be a fundamental. I think the non-fund side won, but a lot of people still consider it one anyway.

    lol, hardly...



    I learned the TA before i knew pen spinning really even existed from the old pentix site. Once i learend the sonic i felt like i could persue further endeavors in pen spinning and stopped feeling so frusterated with it.

    Sonic by far... most bendable trick

    Uh, it will be fingerpass, but... When I've laerning fundamentals I love sonic <3 And I hate FP =P Coz my fp was ugly like hell ;d Now, when my FP is not as bad, I like it ^^

  58. KarBea
    Date: Sun, Jul 20 2008 20:19:05

    I see the charge and TA too much in school so I am not into those...

    I just adore the sonic (sonic really fast to make it hard for others to see what you did) tongue.gif

    fingerpass is pretty common also that is why I love the sonic because I don't know anyone in my school that can do that

  59. Randomhero
    Date: Sun, Aug 3 2008 10:37:53

    i gotta say its a toss up between the thumb around and the sonic

    maybe its because of the nostalgia factor of the thumb around and it was the first trick i learnt
    and maybe its because sonic makes absolutely no sense by physics lol

    but probably the sonic smile.gif

    Well, lets see...

    I suck at doing the sonic
    charging isn't really entertaining in my eyes
    i rarely use fingerpass in combos

    I guess it's thumbaround then
