Iron Cote same, and with the Thumbaround

[@alexkim5283]

Iron Cote yo guy from a year ago u still pen spinning?

[@webofmanipulation6190]

Notes: • Its much harder to learn reverse when the weight is on the bottom so it must be on the top •Sometimes you learn how to do the reverse but you keep catching it wrong so to remedy that fold the last to fingers so that you'll get used to using only three fingers ( I used this method as I keep catching the pen with all my fingers. I'm not sure if this method will work to everyone since it may differ) • It takes time for your fingers to get used to the motion so don't give up as mine took longer than when I learned thumbaround • I'm not the best teacher but I hope it helps to all of you peeps I give my thanks to people who gives tips in the comments. You guys are awesome and I really appreciate the help no matter how small.

Tried for about half an hour, watched video multiple times, I give up.

[@handasan7251]

Never giv up..I learned it in 40 mins in class (accidentally) (just the normal charge)

[@jordiep1337]

ive been attempting this for a whole day now, but i can't seem to get the pen to even spin around my thumb. i believe this is cause of the muscle memory i've built up mastering the normal one, making the reverse feel like moving a brick between my fingers. any tips to overcome this? anything would help. thx a lot.

i can do the thumbaround consistently but i legit can't do the reverse one, any tips ? i just started pen spinning, sorry for being a newb at it...

Practice, and look closely at different ppl finger placement

How are your skills now? Have you become a pro?

[@kalordalknl1806]

Jan Vladimir 蔡炳燃 十己 I’m REALLY good with the Thumbaround. My personal streak with my own modded pen is 16 normal TA (Thumbaround) spins in a row.

[@jennaturner6784]

Ik this was a year ago but it may get stuck on ur index finger so u might wanna put it down in my opinion that is the hardest part and I don’t have fast enough reflexes yet to put it down fast enough

[@blackeagle4553]

2:53 lmao hahahhaha didn't know that the class mates are on drugs hahahaha

[@kalordalknl1806]

A mod I made is the BIGear Mod. It’s where I took a normal BIC 0.7mm Mechanical Pencil, removed the clip, and took four Pen & Gear Pencil Grips, (the ones that come attached) and removed those and put them on my BIC pencil. It works incredibly well! I highly recommend making one to those of you who don’t have any other pens like the ones in the video.

[@dann7598]

This was the most confusing one for me

[@omayax5057]

I've been binging these pen spinning videos, and honestly yours have been the most helpful👌👌 Now I can kind of do the thumbaround, but not really the reverse

[@mcmphis9980]

Ethan Ward you want to hold it the way he does and do a snap action and find the right pressure and you will get it easy

[@bradenedwards8856]

I think I've got the hang of it. A few tips I found along the way for anyone still trying to figure it out. Make sure to have the thumb kind of up like a thumbs up. Notice how when Q does the trick his thumb doesn't bend down very much. When catching the pen extend the middle finger farther forward while its curled for the landing zone.

I can use thumb and index finger only for the thumb around (I can do normally) But I can't do reverse thumb around

[@lazylofu]

a trick that helps me when catchin is i do the thumbaround and then immediately after i do the counter thumbaround, and the hand just kind of tries to do the reverse of what it did in the first place. TLDR just play your hand in reverse to catch it
