    Do any of you do a trick at a particular side?????...like i do a sonic when the cap is facing me.......i can do twisted sonic and devils sonic when the capi is facing away from me......etc....for every trick i have a particular side which im really used to...its irritating cuz when ur in a combo u dont know which side you'll end up at....and i have to stop....so i gotta do some passes and adjust the pen then i continue the combo.....do u any of you have this problem??

    hey, we`re the same age and have been spinning for the same amount of time! anyways, i don`t have this problem, but if you find it irritating, practice the tricks you have trouble with, with the opposite side your used to. i think that should help, but then again, i`ve never had this problem.

    Yeah I know what you mean. This is definately the case with pens which are not balanced. With pencils I much prefer to start some tricks a certain way and some tricks (like bak 1.5s and Thumbspins) are really much harder with the pencil the 'wrong way'.

    This is actually the reason I enjoy spinning pens like the MX. Since executing certain tricks such as arounds are done better on a particular side it forces you to adapt the combo so you can get to that position.
