    I wouldn't use a waterfall mod quite yet. Try Metal Comssa, Toro MX, or RSVP MX, or any other mod that isn't so heavy. Other than that I think you're doing great for a 1 month spinner:)

    Haven't really tried any combos and I learned more than half of my tricks on an mx but it's just to short for me I have like medium to big hands so I like the length and momentum of the waterfall gonna buy a buster but not gonna use it until I get some combos down

    There is nothing wrong with an mx. Waterfall is nice though. Keep that one around. As for a buster. Completely up to you but I personally wouldn't use one.

    Ok, try not to double post. That's not allowed. You can edit your first post if you want to say more. Otherwise wait for a reply then post again. :p But you should definitely start working on some combos. :D If you would like, I could try to give you a few easy combos to start with. :)

    Try this: [pd]sonic 34-24 > [ps] pass rev 24-t2 > ext ta t2-12 > pass rev 12-23 > twisted sonic rev23-34 > [pd] pass 34-23 > twisted sonic bust. Let me know if you want a video and I'll get one for you. :)

    You don't spin so it would be useless to you. And extended ta is easy. He can learn.

    What's wrong with using a Waterfall for a One Month Spinner? I think its fine, like whatever you like best.

    You may want to read that again. Nowhere did I say there was anything wrong with using a waterfall, or any pen for that matter.

    So you didn't mean that it was bad for beginners to use Waterfalls?

    Not at all. I think people should spin whatever feels right to them. I don't think you should be told what to spin and when to spin it.

    Maybe a RSVP MMT could be and option?

    @zohninja The above post is a good idea too. The RSVP NX MMT is light and is also longer than an mx. I think you'd enjoy that pen. :)

    Just got a mini combo I think [Palm up/side]Charge 23 - sonic 23 - charge 12 - pass 12 23 - inv sonic 23 - FL ta - [palm down] - tw sonic bust - FL ta ext - bak How is it for my first combo it wasn't to fluid or smooth but with practice I can get it better

    I seriously don't understand your notation. Is it just a bunch of direction changes?
