    The idea here to deal with tricks or maybe concepts with uses the table and try to develop new families or categorize them into groups.

    I have already one such family of tricks, courtesy of Romain. He asked me to show this variant of the TA.

    It doesn't have a name yet, but he says it looks like "Casper" (the skateboard trick). In fact, it would be an interesting (different) project to try and convert skateboard tricks in pen spinning.

    The idea is to stop the TA into the table. The pressure you can generate from pushing the pen into the table generates resistance and a spin on the opposite direction, which can then be used in different ways. It's a fairly easy, yet innovative idea.

    Here are some possible variants of the "Casper":

    Enjoy.

    Here's I trick I haven't seen before. I call it tip spin.

    the first clip is tip spin 2.5, second and third is its use to start a combo
    with some practice i believe it could look much butter

    you can also use it as a transition

    Ivan, that's awesome! Looks to have good potential to be used if practiced in.

    very cool, I think as an utility trick (like you did in the second, third example) is pretty cool, I think it's not very useful for long rotations.

    This is quite useful a 2H1P trick, substituting the table with the back or palm of your other hand. Transitioning between hands using a palm-side tip spin and an Infinity combos seems to work fairly well.
