    I always get demotivated when I realize that building *actual* skill with or getting any of the health benefits from these toys takes literal months of consistent daily usage. Just getting the tricks down once looks neat on camera but does nothing when you try again in 2 years time.

      100% true that you have to stay consistent and always be looking to improve over time. But going from 0 to being able to do 1 or 2 tricks is massive too

    • @LePeppino
      @LePeppino Před 7 měsíci +2

      @@MusicMaster320 what can I tell you besides be patient, slowly gain a sense for how the tricks should feel around your fingers, use a well balanced pen you feel comfortable with, practice whenever you can and don't get frustrated dropping the pen and failing! It took me a whole week to learn my first trick, the Thumbaround, and even then I got it only 8 times out of 10. Do NOT skip the basics, they are essential to almost every more advanced trick or combo. Also try to do some warmups and stretches before if you're feeling too cold or stiff to practice. Lastly, you should be having fun with it and feel accomplished for mastering some moves, so never beat yourself up for failing and maybe try again after some rest.

  • @spyroclone152
    @spyroclone152 Před 3 měsíci

    As a balisong flipper, it's nice to see you having fun learning tricks. But you can only get so far with that CCC there since it's not built well for tricks. If you're really wanting to improve at tricks, I highly recommend getting a balisong that is more built for optimal flipping performance. My personal recommendations would be the Nabalis Vulp by Will Hirch, and the LDY Orion V1.5. But if money is no object, I'd say upgrading to a Squid Industries Squid Trainer V4, and or a Krake Raken V3 Trainer would be some of the best standard flippers out their if you're hungry to learn more tricks.
    Also, for all who are commenting that balisongs are not toys, you're technically half wrong. Yes, balisongs are originally knives and weapons. But the hobby has slowly shifting to blunt trainers being the norm due to their accessibility, legality, and cheaper cost. That's not to say there aren't live blades flipping around. But that's more for the added tradition of flipping and challenge rather than being used for EDC. Plus, live blade balisongs are illegal in a majority of the world. Nowadays, the hobby has evolved into doing tricks rather than the knives actually being used as knives. Besides, if literal playing cards, pens, and even zippos are considered skill toys, I can't see why a balisong can't be. Unless the Trainer has a bottle opener, there really is no other purpose other than being a non-lethal alternative for practicing, and being a toy overall.

    I've been chronically addicted to penspinning for like 12-ish years, now, and it's just one of my favorite things to do.
    Whenever I'm watching a video or movie, I usually have a pen lying around, so I can play around with it, in the meantime. I'm not that amazing, but after some practice, I reached the point where doing the tricks is just muscle memory, and at that point, it's just really relaxing. Still, it's better to do it on a couch or a bed, to limit the directions the pen can fly. As someone who had my maths professor hand me my pen, after it flew away in the lecture hall, let me tell you that there are places where spinning a pen isn't quite ideal. Whoops

    It’s impossible not to smile while watching this!

Maybe I should get one of those practice pen-spinning things. I was never good at it even when I had full use of my hands, so I suppose it’s time I learned once and for all how to do it.

      Really sorry to hear that. But really happy to hear that this little vid brought those thoughts to you! I find the practise pen really fun, even when I’m messing up!
