Hey!
There is a little video that i made, to help begginers see the 'little' difference between a penmod and a normal pen
Yup, the combo was pretty simple, but if it were more complicated, I would never do it with the unmodded pen!

Thanks and sorry for the bad English!

I personally think that beginners should start with unmodded pens =\
if it's a beginner watching this, then they wouldn't be able to do more difficult tricks anyway, like fake triple
if it's a more advanced spinner watching this, they would already know that mods are easier to spin with (but then again, showing advanced spinners this is not the point of this anyway...)
anyway, i don't think a beginner should really be using a kt or some mod at first when learning the fundamentals (they could probably start with an mx, or a comssa at most)
if a beginner starts with a kt or something similar in weight, i feel like they'd grow so used to it that they couldn't spin a regular pen at all---of course the spinning with the regular unmodded pen would still be choppier than with a modded pen, but I still feel that the beginner should use the regular pen and spin choppy instead of spinning with a kt and spin smooth at first
just my opinion on this
i know that you just wanna show the difference between the two pens, but i don't think beginners should use the modded pen anyway over the choppier pen cause when they spin with a lighter, less balanced pen---reality check's gonna hit them real hard

well of course the combo with the kt looks better becuase since it balanced it spins better when your a beginner i personally think that you should be spinning with personal mods. that what i started with a personal rsvp of mine then a personal pencil mod of mine but if you really want a "legit" mod stick with a bictory rsvp v1 or comssa

YES
i guess mods are alright for beginners like rsvp v1, comssas, etc..
but not anything like a msxa, kt, ayatori mod, or even a mx^2 or ...i dunno, other stuff heavier than 12g? -

if lighter pens are the issue....
advertise bictory pens to new spinners
its balanced, light, and cheap
its not like the'll be like "ehhhh i don't wanna spin pens. its just not for me" and start regrettng the money they spent.
(i mean the bictorys like wat? 12 cents per make?) -

Yep, i agree with your opinion, i doesnt saying for begginers - hey guys, start with a kt! -
Im just showing the difference netween a unmodded and a mod.
Many people (at least in my board) are in doubt with to do mods or not, then that is what I wanted to pass, with the mod the spin looks really better and easy.

WEll...i personally think that beginners should start out w/ normal pencils....and later they can test different mods out to see what thier spinning style fits most and pick the perfect mod...or maybe even creating a new mod...

I styarted out with a pencil when I didn't even know about mods, I learned half of the moves I know now with a pencil, even infinity.

uhh wait a minuet. don't new spinners quit ps because they arn't able to learn tricks?
eg. some pens such as... unmodded bic pen, are difficult to do some tricks with (if not many?)
so the sooner new pen spinners learn about mods, more likely they are to dedicate more time on spinning? -

then they are spinning for the wrong reasons and should

@sangara
just saying that theirs a chance that a lot of possible 'dedicated' spinners are quitting because they have never heard of mods. and the usefulness of them -

then they aren't dedicated.
