    So what was your most memorable accomplishment? Could be anything PS-related: maybe being on TV for the first time, mastering a trick, doing a difficult combo, got into a competition, etc. Not sure if this thread was made yet so please bear with me. :( I guess I'll start first..... My most memorable was mastering bakfall. :happy: [video=youtube;CFA8WQFT6xM]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFA8WQFT6xM[/video] It was probably one my worst struggles in pen spinning but that feeling of getting bakfall for the first time made me crazy for that combo. :lol: [video=youtube;pCcAQV0vW-8]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pCcAQV0vW-8[/video] Haha, look at this buster noob. I was so dumb then. :banana: [video=youtube;gGeJrA3aJTc]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gGeJrA3aJTc[/video] So, any accomplishments? ^_^

    defeat one of my idols (Darcy) in wc10 and all wc10 in general, was a huge team accomplishement. about tricks, i'd say every powertrick is a victory, since i'm very bad at it ;-;

    tadeadliest;183425]Mastering my first mini-combo: sonic rise > neosonic > TF Charge Rev. > FLTA Rev.[/QUOTE] Haha, that may be for now at least. I should've stated that it depends on how long you've been spinning; maybe at least 2 years. [QUOTE=Gisele 8 wrote: i'd say every powertrick is a victory, since i'm very bad at it ;-;
    Agreed. :/ I suck at power tricking too.

    bakfall - It's a great trick/hybrid/whatever to know since all non-pen spinners find this trick very appealing.. and it's not even hard. It's not worth doing a difficult trick that doesn't look good. So to all you pen spinners who have mastered a "difficult" trick: "I don't give a fuck. It's the combo that matters."

    probably when i first mastered freestyling about a year ago. before then i could do a combo i wrote out but nothing on the spot. that was a very proud day for me. also being able to use hai tua as finisher in free style. that was even more difficult.

    Yeah... after 7 month of active spinning (probably around April/May 2008), I was able to do my first double bust. I posted in the UPSB shoutbox and still remember how @Erirornal Kraione said "Oh nice, way to go!" (something along those lines) and I was like
