Pen Modifications / Pen Mod Recommendation / Comparison

Date: Thu, Aug 19 2010 01:27:31
Use this thread to ask for recommendations of pen mods to use, or to ask for suggestions on which pen mods to pick ------- Any good pens/pen mods that you could recommend for a pen spinning noob that arn't too heavy? I don't really like heavy pens. I can do basic tricks like the charge and the twisted sonic.

Metallic comssa is the best imo and i recommend it highly, cheap and very good to spin

My friend is willing to sell me some of these pens, can you help tell me if they are good for a noob or overpriced? SEVEN Mod - $15 (He said he'd sell it to me for $10) RSVP MMX - $6.50 R.I.P Bonkura MX - $7 Pink/Sky Blue Dr.AC (American Tips) - $15 I kinda like the R.I.P bonkura MX. BTW, what does MX/MMX mean?
-
Date: Thu, Aug 19 2010 02:18:46
a seven for only $10 seems a bit underpriced O_o probably subbed parts, mx stands for for maximum, no idea what mmx stands for O_o but they seem like very reasonable prices, the dr. ac is very heavy and so is the SEVEN mod, and you said you wanted lighter but if you want to get more used to heavy mods then go right ahead

SUBBED parts are substituted parts. the RSVP MX is at a good price, but no one likes the colour blue, its pretty dark. @Frip
l33t mx extended is much better. there is more room for palm spins

I gotta try this, I was wondering why my l33t mx was lacking in that area.

Would the R.I.P Bonkura MX be a good starter pen? I don't mind how the balance is not in the middle. Sorry for all the questions :P
-
Date: Thu, Aug 19 2010 04:06:55
hey, i learned all basic tricks with a MX, its pretty good, especially in school because it looks like a pen and can write...
-
Date: Thu, Aug 19 2010 04:39:36
The SEVEN mod isn't heavy... a completely different category from the Dr.AC But you should go with what you like. It doesn't really matter which pen if you don't mind the balance. Plus the mx is the lightest one.
-
Date: Thu, Aug 19 2010 21:16:33
@colin thats a fungly mod that ur trying to sell... @jexelD, MX means mix(im really not sure but something like that =D) and MMT means momentum

dude, MX means maximum. -
Date: Fri, Aug 20 2010 03:30:38
So the SEVEN G3 mod is a lot lighter then the Dr. AC... right? Is a metel cossma lighter then a MX, and the MX is lighter then a SEVEN right...? Is the MX completely different from a SEVEN? What kind of pen is a Buster? (like its wight, size, ... i know its a DC :P) Is it good?
-
Date: Fri, Aug 20 2010 03:32:45
Buster is DC, uber heavy go ahead and get it if you dont want to be spinning lighter mods
-
Date: Fri, Aug 20 2010 03:46:43
Yeah, much lighter. I wouldn't say a metallic comssa is lighter than a mx. Similar weight, but the metallic comssa is balanced. The mx isn't. The SEVEN is a bit heavier than both. And the Dr.AC is really heavy. Not Buster CYL heavy, but close. The SEVEN mod is more balanced than the mx, but it is a bit back heavy, so it's not perfectly balanced either. Much less noticeable though. And it's longer. Honestly, the only good thing about the mx for a beginner is that it is cheap and looks like an actual pen. It makes spinning harder, so if anything it's for better spinners. But if you don't mind how unbalanced it is, then by all means go for it. It's better looking anyways.
-
Date: Fri, Aug 20 2010 12:37:45
IMO the best begginer mod are grip aviaire or comssa cause cop=cog and they are low cost
-
Date: Fri, Aug 20 2010 13:08:44
there is no such thing as a R.I.P bonkura mx. Its just an rsvp mx with an insert saying rip bonkura, its not a mod its self.

Date: Fri, Aug 20 2010 15:53:37
Correction jan, it's been already sold

Is a RSVP MX a lot better then a RSVP v2? What are the differences between those two?
-
Date: Fri, Aug 20 2010 22:59:39
mx has moar spinning room and i like it better. if im not mistaken rsvp v2 is just an mx without the rsvp grip in the cap

Date: Tue, Aug 24 2010 04:03:50
can you do anything with a Jimmie body/grip?

Right. But how does the MX have more spinning room o_o? -
Date: Wed, Aug 25 2010 14:55:44
well, i'm a noob ScaringChildren but i think bcause of the grip by blocking space the pen to go in (??)

Date: Thu, Aug 26 2010 01:09:31
Rsvp v2 has no grip in the cap so the cap is pushed farther down on the rsvp bbody therefore a smaller mod ans therefore less spinning room than a regular mx. Jexel if you lile medium weight mods then yeah

Ah, makes sense. See, for most RSVP's I get, the cap is VERY tight. (Mostly with black rsvps), so I can only put the cap on so much anyways. That way it's the same for v1/2/mx's automatically. -

lol man... i just spin a bictory with white double caps so it looks like a white comssa with no grips or tips i have no problem spinning it in class cuz it isnt too long and the body i took from some store advertising random stuff with free pens so i took one and wen i get home i just spin another bictory or my personal mx =D.

Date: Mon, Nov 1 2010 11:40:21
c'mon share your insights about ur fave mod and why so u can help other spinners choose their main mods For me i like RSVP MX's because its easy to customize(e.g. making it center balanced,putting designs etc.)and it has a classy,normal pen look how about you?
-
Date: Mon, Nov 1 2010 12:48:02
MX is too short for my big hand, but I like light SC mods and Japanese style, so I chose Ajisai SC with Hi-Tec C tip in Jimnie cap. It's long (21,3 cm, if I'm right) and light (15 g or about that), so it doesn't look like a stick when it's spun, it also has a great appearance when it's static, and it's disbalanced a bit like RSVP MX, so it makes this mod even more interesting ^_^ It was a great fortune that I decided to mod Ajisai SC, I recommend it, it's my main mod for everyday spinning. If I'm learning something, then I train with Minwoo mod or Ajisai SC.
-
Date: Mon, Nov 1 2010 17:23:52
i think i prefer a Buster CYL, and th SX Mod. the CYL is like my practice mod. to help me learn those power tricks and help me get down a combo. But the SX is my main spin mod that i use once ive gotten something down. and also the SX is lighter and i guess balanced(CoG=CoP). i dont like spinning such heavy mods as it feels weird to my fingers. so i prefer mods that weigh like a KT or less.
-
Date: Tue, Nov 2 2010 23:34:54
What pen is best for me? I can do 2x busts, fingerless t-round, bakfall, neobak, palmspin(3.0ish) What is a good pen? Is a buster cyl good for me?
-
Date: Tue, Nov 2 2010 23:52:49
Really depends on how well you can spin, the size of your hands etc If you're new, spin a lighter mod. If you hand is small, spin smaller mods. A pen from you middle finger down to the bottom of your palm is the perfect length.
-
Date: Wed, Nov 3 2010 02:30:28
no, a buster cyl is definitly not a good mod, I suggest maybe a momentum mx, or just a mod of medium weight.

-

If you're more so on the earlier steps of learning how to pen spin then this would be an excellent mod. Seeing as your profile information says that you started spinning in 2008, it's still a great mod for pretty much any level spinner. Plus it's relatively cheap as well.
-
Date: Sat, Nov 6 2010 15:46:53
Is it just a metal comssa with sailor grips? You could probably get it cheaper if you mod it yourself, 2 sailor grips for $1.20 each, a white DC comssa for $1, 2 HGG tips for $0.70 each. You could go fancy and replace the Sailor grips with dr grips for $2.50 each but that isn't necessary. Anyball grips work well too.
-
Date: Sat, Nov 6 2010 18:06:24
i agree with holypie, instead of buying that mod i bought all the parts to make it so i can get all the colors i want with the pen. also it's not that hard to mod there's a tutorial on it here i believe.
-
Date: Sat, Nov 6 2010 18:49:12
I don't think there is, but all that's needed is to screw the HGG tips onto the comssa caps, double cap and add grips.
-
Date: Sat, Nov 6 2010 18:55:12
It is always cheaper to make mods rather than buying it. (Unless the person is selling for less than the materials needed)
-
Date: Mon, Nov 8 2010 03:10:30
But he might not want to deal with grip cutting. If he wants the lower one, it would be 3 sailor grips.

Date: Sat, Nov 13 2010 04:54:56
i would go for a dr. Kt, buster, metal comssa, minwoo, or waterfall w.e u prefer idk.. lighter... heavier.. longer etc.

Get a Minwoo mod. I don't have one but I tried my friend's Minwoo and it spins awesome. It's a single sided mod but spins like a DC mod. XD
-
Date: Sat, Nov 13 2010 05:58:13
It's almost chirstmas, and by the time it comes to be christmas, i would have been spinning for about 3 months. What would be a good mod for me? I'm using an NX MMT right now, but I kinda like double sided mods better. So what would be a good mod for me? (preferably not too light, like a bictory, those are a BIT too light.) Also, my hand is about 17.5 or 18 cm. Thanks!
-
Date: Sat, Nov 13 2010 06:16:06
metallic comssa. nuff' said
-
Date: Sat, Nov 13 2010 06:39:41
well, I would second a Metallic Commsa, since it's cheap, a good mod, and not too heavy. Though, if you decided for something a tad heavier then maybe a signo comssa or something like that, depends on preference. Since you say a BICtory is only a bit too light, i'd say you'd really enjoy a Metallic Comssa.
-
Date: Sat, Nov 13 2010 06:48:10
eh, i liked minwoo mod at first as well, bu if ur gonna do that better to just get a straight KT. if you like a little lighter, then waterfall, or something like that
-
Date: Sat, Nov 13 2010 06:53:50

Just trust me here please :) [B](basically) Signo tipped anything is good[/B] What you should get for sure because you'll want them later: RSVP mx Plain old comssa Seven mod Signo tipped comssa HGR tipped comssa Dr. KT Buster Dr grip grips (lots) Also, you may want to try this mod which is pretty cheap and spins great: Comssa with Signo DX grips on the caps and a Dr grip section (about 1.5cm long) on top of the signo grips, signo tipped. Costs about $8 and spins like a beast (my main mod :p) [/comssa fanatic]

whats the difference between kuzu and kuzu extended?
-
Date: Mon, Nov 15 2010 02:00:03
Lol? It's pretty much exactly what the names are. Kuzu g3 is the original mod used by Kuzu and Kuzu extended is an extended Kuzu. I don't think there's a tut for extending it but people who use longer grips for gripcutting wanted to put their whole gripcut on the front so they made it longer.

not what i meant lol you can buy already prepared mods ( such as you can buy pens on amazon or penwish ect.) im talking about the mods you take time and effort to make yourself lol (as in you take apart different pens and make a new one)
-
Date: Tue, Nov 16 2010 01:45:40
... as wonder said, but put differently: any mod you can buy on penwish etc. can be made at home penwish just cuts out the part where you have to make it. there are pros and cons of buying a premade mod as opposed to making your own, i'm not sure where you want this discussion to go?
-
Date: Tue, Nov 16 2010 01:45:44
Well 1st, premade mods are ugh home-made? not counting Spinz, Penz Gear, etc. next, I like home made mods since it is satisfying to finish them in the end, plus you'll never regret it. Plus, you'll save off a few bucks if you do them yourself.
-
Date: Tue, Nov 16 2010 01:52:38
I don't understand. Like stated above, everything i've ordered from PW was homemade. I don't buy premade mods because they are a lot more expensive than to buy parts on your own and make it. I only use PW to order parts, but i've noticed that many many newcomers are buying the premade mods simply because "they are lazy", or "Don't want to try". And.. there are others who don't know how to mod.
-
Date: Tue, Nov 16 2010 01:55:40
well k-ryder its my first thread ok lol and its just opinions lol give me a break here ok so everyone understands lol opinion on whether to make one yourself or buy one (i hope that is easier to understand lol)

Premade mods are expensive for an asian lol but i like to make my own mods cuz you can always do it your way.
-
Date: Tue, Nov 16 2010 02:01:08
Ah that's much easier to understand. If you're interested in modding as well as spinning make it yourself. If you want to spin only, then buy it. Homemade mods cost less usually than premade mods and you get a surplus of extra unused parts in most cases. (useful to modding). However your first few mods might turn out kinda bad or you might make a few mistakes here and there but that's all part of the learning process. Even veteran modders make mistakes. But again if you just want the mod to spin, then buy it premade. It might cost more but you won't have to put time and effort to make it.
-
Date: Tue, Nov 16 2010 05:52:25
I like the Any-X...less used but my best mod by far. 1) Writable with RSVP ink! Bonus--retractable 2) Great look, doesn't stand out too much like the Buster 3) Light/heavy enough for beginning to intermediate spinners and useful for warming up before practices 4) Fairly easy to mod compared with other writable mods, also sturdy 5) Parts are cheap and easily found except for the HGG tip, ordered on penwish Thx Zaazu! =D

comsaa would be good for you. if you find that too light ,metal comsaa then but thats like similar weight with rsvp mx so in conclusion i would suggest you to try comsaa. -

Hey im looking for my first mod pen and im not sure what to use im looking at some of the rsvp's but im not sure, ive just been using a pencil with 2 erasers till now and I find I don’t have good control with it. I’m pretty much deciding between a rsvp or a Metal Comssa not sure if heavy = control plz help.
-
Date: Tue, Nov 30 2010 23:34:57
@brs Keep spinning the pencil with two erasers, you're just not used to the feel of spinning yet and you're only a beginner, of course you don't have complete control over the pen :P Spinning a lighter pen when you start of is always better than spinning with a heavy pen. If you're wanting to buy some mods, then a RSVP mx or a metal comssa with profile grips or sailor gel grips would be prefect if you want some more weight :) Heavy means you can do the tricks easier but its not good to spin a heavier mod when you start because you won't be able to spin lighter mods later on.

Hey all, I started pen spinning a few years ago and got really into it for a short while, but since then I haven't really payed attention to it or gotten any better. I'm trying to get into it again, so I figure the best place to start would be to ask what mod I should make/buy next. The only mods I have are an MX, a Commsa (which I usually use without the tips), and a custom Ballsign. The Ballsign is my favorite of the three, but it's a bit too light I think and too small for me (I have huge hands). So can anybody recommend a good mod for an advanced beginner/intermediate level spinner that is a good length, without being too heavy (being in the middle in terms of weight sould be the best)? Any advice would be much appreciated =)

-
Date: Mon, Dec 20 2010 23:51:50
If you can still spin the metallic comssa, then just do whatever floats your boat. It's only "bad" if you can ONLY spin a buster and can't spin anything lighter.

Momentum isn't a big plus if you fail to spin with anything lighter later on. -
Date: Tue, Dec 21 2010 14:11:15
Yes, what you're doing is similar to what i do. I move down from buster to kt to mx to comssa and to pencil. for some tricks, pencil is impossible. Some of my friends that are drummers learn some tricks with their drumsticks, and can never manage to do them with a pencil because the drumstick is so frickin heavy

Its not bad if you learn it faster on a buster, because then you will be progressing faster and that is what you should really be aiming for.
-
Date: Wed, Dec 22 2010 23:48:39
herp derp, the whole point of learning tricks with a lighter pen is that you can do something with a lighter mod ! A buster is just a heavy stick that shortcuts all of your learning progress.

Get a good i dea of how to do the trick with a buster, and actually learn the trick with an mx etc, then after you mastered it with an mx, buster cyl is sooo easy. Some of my drummer friends learned with their sticks, and can't do tricks with anything else. same concept for buster. -

I'm gonna get a mod from Pemwish this Christmas. Any recommendations? Also, I would like signle capped mods that aren't too expensive. Thanks :)
-
Date: Fri, Dec 24 2010 08:17:18
An MX is a fantastic single capped mod to use. If you already have an MX, then a Metal Comssa is a good mod to get as well. A Waterfall Mod would sum up your christmas too :D

I'm deciding whether to buy the Dr.Kt or the Metal Comssa. What do you guy suggest me do? The Dr.Kt is $23 and the Metal Comssa is 6.99. Thanks ( I'm sorry if this is the wrong section):spin:
-
Date: Tue, Jan 4 2011 23:11:08
Metal Comssa. Cheaper, and easier to spin if your'e new, get a KT when your fingers can handle heavy weight. Also, it would be less expensive if you make your own mod.
-
Date: Tue, Jan 4 2011 23:22:31
@A.Sate, I live in the U.S and I don't think they sell the pen require for Dr.Kt or Comssa here do they? I try Amazon but no luck.
-
Date: Tue, Jan 4 2011 23:30:17
@maple1100 its cheaper to trade with people. For example i have a dr. kt for sale/trade for only $20.
-
Date: Tue, Jan 4 2011 23:51:07
@maple1100 www.penwish.com That man lives in the US and sends nation wide as well as international. He is highly trusted. I suggest you get a metal comssa just beginning out, but honestly, it's your choice whether you get the KT or metal comssa. The metal comssa is a great beginner pen and the KT is as well, but the KT is significantly heavier than the comssa. It is easier AND cheaper to just buy the parts for the pens because not only do you save money, you gain more material that may be used for many other mods. There is also the choice of trading/selling/buying from other members on this board.
-
Date: Tue, Jan 4 2011 23:58:14
By make your own mod, I mean order the comssas and hgg tips from Penwish. And trading with other people is also a good way to save money too, you could get stuff thats not on Penwish (mods like m&m)

-
Date: Fri, Jan 7 2011 03:47:16
Neither, don't buy them until you actually are a pro. Stick with signo tipped mods, they're very nice. Things like Waterfall, Signo tipped Comssa, Emboss mod, Tornado mod (this isn't signo tipped but it's a decent weight and a nice mod).
-
Date: Sat, Jan 8 2011 10:04:57
At first you can use an unsharpened pencil and then use RSVP unmodded pen . Until you are a pro u can choose one of ur choice and I prefer Buster ( cheaper than KT )

I'm getting access to Penwish soon, and here's my list of mods I'm considering to get: -Bonkura KT. I already have the tips. -Namemory DC -Buster CYL -Vicgotgame Mod -NachoAddict's RSVP Mod Is there anything I should take out or add in? I'm still sticking with older tricks hence the RSVP Mod and the Namemory DC.

It depends on how long you cut the supertips.

@Rawrzapan according to upsb length varies and depends on the modder most people dont use the whole body of both supertips so it is usually cut. Im not sure how long penwish version is but since buster is around 20 -22cm im guessing 24-26cm that might be wrong though anyone wanna correct me?

Hey guys so here's the thing, I've been spinning the MX for over a year and I feel like it's time to change. I want something completely new something I've never spun before. If you know me then you know I hate heavy, the heaviest I'll go is Dr. KT which I think is 16g. The pen I have in mind would be double sided but honestly it doesn't matter I just want something new, heavier and longer than an MX so if you can, fire away. Oh and to not waste your time I've spun: RSVP MX RSVP CX RSVP MMT RSVP NX MMT Impact MX F-3000/3000*F MSXA Lemon Mod Key3's G-3 Mod Dr. KT Dr. CT Dr. AC Dr. ST Buster CYL Vicgotgame Mod v.1, v.2 Rushon Rushon Comssa Comssa Metallic Comssa Flexible MX Shadowserpant's Mod Stylish Pirat I think that's it... not sure, I dunno but if you suggest a pen I would request that you actually own that pen so I can ask you questions about it. Thanks.

Hmm... I am a beginner and I was told the best mods for me would probably be.... Ep Comssa Dc Comssa Cheat Comssa RSVP Mx Which is the easier and best for me to make? And will I be able to get the parts locally? I live in America. More specifically, Alaska. What seems like the best option. One last question. When modded, do any of these actually keep their ability to be used as pens? Or is the ink taken out, etc. Thanks so much. :D
-
Date: Wed, Feb 9 2011 04:24:02
This really depends on your personal preferences. If you have large or moderately large hands, like 19cm+, an ep comssa would probably be the best option. The MX is the easiest to mod and nice, but I wouldn't recommend it if it's the only mod you're going to buy, especially if you have large hands. The other comssas are nice as well, it really all comes down to your preferences and your hand size. BTW, you probably won't be able to get the pens for any of these mods locally.
-
Date: Wed, Feb 9 2011 04:48:39

Tip of middle finger to wrist. EDIT: Another great mod for a beginner is the BICtory. Writable on two ends, VERY cheap, and you might be able to find the parts for it in Alaska. Look for BIC round stics/Bic Ultra Round Stics. -

I completely agree with the comssas and MX's, and I recommend a BICtory Warning: You probably don't wanna use the BIC for collabs and stuff, because it's considered a "noob" pen, but it's excellent for practice. So just started?

i think you can actually sub a supertip for the body. im not entirely sure though.
-
Date: Sat, Feb 12 2011 00:08:14
No, supertip is far too thick. The 094 caps will never fit over it unless you use comssa backplugs in which case it'd just be a flying panda variation (different grips).
-
Date: Sat, Feb 12 2011 00:18:15
O.o thanks. Is it heavier or lighter then a baaron mod im using now?
-
Date: Sat, Feb 12 2011 01:02:27
it would be similar to baron mods weight. (if you are going to use panda mod) but it would be pretty different to waterfall mod. you can try subbing the body with bell colors. caps are pretty hard to sub.

I've been spinning for about a year now, and i know most of the tricks. I decided it was time i moved on to a better mod, narrowed it down to 2 mods: Firefly's G3 and Minwoo Mod. I've already asked all my friends who pen spin, but i still can't decide. Which one would be better for me? Price is not an issue.

Date: Mon, Feb 14 2011 00:38:05
Not that I can think of. If you have smaller hands, then you can cut the super pirat. It's got great spinning space. I just wish it had a leeeeeeetle bit more momentum. That's why I added some Sailor grips to mine so that the (Dr. Grip) grip is over the tip a little. Not too much of a difference in weight, but better momentum.
-
Date: Mon, Feb 14 2011 05:45:28
Aesthetics, momentum, and weight preferences are all objective factors that play into "Pros and Cons".

Date: Mon, Feb 14 2011 22:01:15
Hello. I'm thinking of buying a new pen from Penwish and I can't decide whether or not to get the Buster CYL or Waterfall. I heard that they're both really good to spin and have a good weight. I can only get one or the other so I need help deciding. Does anyone know specific details about each pen (Length, COG, weight comparisons)? Also, for the Buster, is there really a noticeable difference between having the ballpoint or gel tips? To anyone that has tried spinning both the Buster CYL and Waterfall, in your opinion, which one generally has a better feel and momentum? By the way, I started with a regular No. 2 Pencil and I'm currently using a Bictory, but I'm starting to find that it's a little light and lacks momentum when I'm trying new tricks. I also have an RSVP MX but I like using double-sided pens better and prefer that the COG is at the COP. Thanks! ^^
-
Date: Mon, Feb 14 2011 22:28:26
So you want to go from a pencil/bictory/MX to something as heavy as a Waterfall/Buster? =_=;; Everyone says the Buster is a good pen due to it's amazing momentum HOWEVER, it is most likely way too heavy for you. I would, personally, work my way up. Try something like a cheat comssa (using a white comssa body to replicate the Buster barrel "feel", if you wish...) which is just a comssa with either 2 HGG tips on each end, 1 signo per end, or 1 signo tip + HGG tip per end. This pen has a lot of momentum compared to the mods you are using, and sometimes a tit-load of momentum (such as in the Buster/Watefall) isn't a good thing as it is tougher to change the direction of the pen/control where it's going vs. where it wants to go. The Waterfall and Buster are very similar in feel, imo. The Buster barrel is larger, and the Waterfall is longer, so between the two it is just personal preference. I prefer the Waterfall since I like thinner barrels (plus the color choices are nice~) but that's just me. Also, I like the weight being distributed all along the cap (due to the heavy grip) instead of all the weight at the end (the airfit tips are heavyyy), so again, that's just me. What I can say though is that it'll be easier to transition from a Cheat Comssa to a Waterfall - if you so choose to get a Cheat Comssa - due to similarities. but the choice is yours!!
-

Date: Mon, Feb 14 2011 22:58:17
i like the waterfall mod a lot more. its far lighter with better distribution imo, and its a weight that im used to since i spin MSXAs a lot. but like the others said, it might be weird to transfer directly from something so light to something far heavier. i would go for a cheat comssa before a waterfall.
-
Date: Tue, Feb 15 2011 00:41:53
Yeah. I went from self mods with signo tips straight to a buster. Now I ccan't spin pencils. I can barely spin a signo tipped bictory... definitely get a waterfall...
-
Date: Tue, Feb 15 2011 00:42:45
Adapt yourself to the heavy mods takes a while but IT MAY BE DONE. Try MSXA as a little bit longer and heavier than the RSVP MX, or Metal Comssa. I prefer BUSTER CYL of course because of its momentum, that's really good, it doesn't stop, and I am not saying is slippery, but as some already said, it helps you in the hard tricks. Buster CYL is heavier than the Waterfall Mod though, My personal preference Waterfall mod for me is too light, and it doesn't have any momentum lol, it just stops in the middle of a combo -__-. But then again, I wouldn't recommend Buster if you are barely spinning which I don't know how long u been doing it. :unsure: If you already spin a while, then yes, but if not, then, like some said it, a cheat comssa or metal comssa :D
-
Date: Tue, Feb 15 2011 01:13:25
Also, as you get further into spinning, i find that when i spin rsvp mx's it actually feels more comfortable than spinning a really heavy mod, but that's just me. I don't know about you.
-
Date: Tue, Feb 15 2011 02:45:04
Escorpio, the Waterfall has a LOT of momentum. "Stopping in the middle of a combo" is exactly the problem people develop by spinning heavy mods way too soon. You aren't supposed to just speed the pen up and then guide it, you're supposed to be constantly controlling the speed and direction of the pen. You should NOT spin a Buster if you are new. Develop some control (which includes speed control, mind you) by spinning mods that are (not necessarily lighter) but have less momentum. While it may be extremely difficult to do certain tricks on bictories and the like, you should more than be able to learn anything on a Cheat Comssa/Waterfall as you can on the buster.
-
Date: Tue, Feb 15 2011 02:47:27
As I said before in another thread. I LOVE the waterfall. I just wish that it had a teensy tiny bit more momentum and weight. I'm not a typical heavy mod spinner and I love it. I put sailors on mine ;)
-
Date: Tue, Feb 15 2011 03:44:44
I suggest before moving on to a buster you should use a buster with jell tips then move on to ballpoint tips. Jell tips are much lighter.
-
Date: Tue, Feb 15 2011 03:50:55
yeah... on penwish it says [B]"uses slightly lighter gel tips" [/B] how did you miss that... i personally like the look of a buster better cuz i dont like the long grips on waterfall i think theres no big differnce between spinning the two... so i use buster
-
Date: Tue, Feb 15 2011 04:32:09
it depends on your style/tricks you do. Obvisouly power tricks are favoured to the buster (ive always assumed it was named because its so easy to do cont busts with it) . Watefallfall mod is much different from buster. I dont know what people are talking about. Waterfall mod uses signo, buster uses Airfits. o_O and so it spins quite differently. The length of the 2 are pretty similar actually. WFM is easyier for sonic hyrbids, and directions changes but also has ability to to baks/bak revs rounds, cont tricks and palm spins also like the buster. Overall It has the flow of the buster, but with more control of the speed/momentum to you. (this is what it think anyway). So buster if you want primarily power tricks, if not use waterfall.
-
Date: Wed, Feb 16 2011 02:58:13
well, there bothe great pens in my opinion, BUT why dont u get a metallic comssa, i went to one of those and i LOVED it, theyre cheap and seem to fit your wants, both of the pens your looking at are pretty heavy, especially the buster and plus the black hoops metallic comssa looks REALLY great, or if u want a writing mod get a retractable comssa

We all do experience some stopping at some point, that's why I said that's my preference, just like other people are saying about control smoothness and speed, at their points of view. Somebody that spins heavy mods could find the buster that has momentum, others NOT like Neo Said that WFM has more momentum, but for me, it doesn't at all -_-, it is about preferences :facepalm: -

Okay, based on what you guys are saying, I think I should wait a little while before I get either the Waterfall or Buster. I've only been spinning for like 2 months. :/ What do you guys think about the Metal Comssa and Tornado? I already know that the Metal Comssa is a great pen for beginners, but what about the Tornado? Is it any good? Should I get it instead of a metal comssa? Thanks again (:

The tornado mod is pretty nice.

Date: Wed, Feb 16 2011 21:11:33
Get a Dr. KT, they have the momentum in between waterfall and buster. I got one at 2 months, and absolutely loved it. Just get the original not the fancy shit (like the gold one). I later upgraded to a buster, and then eventually a vicgotgame mod. It is frowned upon by many, but you will love you KT, or Buster
-
Date: Wed, Feb 16 2011 21:14:43
Honestly, I've tried spinning the Tornado and didn't like it. My IRL friend KTrinh93 did like it, however. So it's preference. The spinning area on the Tornado is smaller than the Metallic Comssa and the abnormally large grips do not help. They are two completely different pens in every way. Body texture, different. Tornado is a little rubbery vs. the Comssa's plastically feel. Weight distribution, different. Tornado has weights all along its cap vs. Comssa's have the weight on the ends. Momentum, however, is pretty similar. But due to the Tornado's body texture the pen will lose speed faster. Nothing noticeable though. The Chinese Penspinning Board (MyPSA? Idk...) advocates Tornados towards new spinners, so it is definitely a mod I'd recommend too. Again, it's up to your personal preference. Metallic comssa's are a bit more customizable in terms of color, so if you want that appeal then go for it (I recommend Cheat Comssa over Metallic Comssa, just because a regular Metallic Comssa might be a tad too light...). Otherwise, Tornado is probably your best bet. Besides, if you don't like the Tornado you can always save up money to get a Comssa in the future since they come pretty cheap. Edit: Ninja'd due to my wall of text. Q_Q KT's are pretty darn heavy, and while they aren't as heavy as a Buster, they "feel" harder to move because they are shorter. Meaning, you'll have to push harder to get it spinning. So not recommending the Buster due to weight/too much momentum but recommending the KT is a little bit of a stretch.

Hey Storm, do you know if the Cheat Comssa can be made with parts from a normal metal comssa? I've been looking for a tutorial since you suggested it and I've only found that one video on YouTube, but I can't really see it clearly. :P No luck finding a written tutorial in the forums either :$
-
Date: Wed, Feb 16 2011 21:51:43
To make a Cheat Comssa you take a regular Metallic Comssa and glue on another HGG tip to both sides, so you have 2 HGG tips on each side. OR, instead of glueing on an HGG tip you glue on a Signo tip. This is obviously heavier and what I spun when I was starting out. **Recommended** OR, you can use Thnikk's method of attaching Signo tips to the Comssa caps so the only tips are the Signo tips, no HGG's used!! Pick and choose~

3 months? It depends on the tricks you know, if you only know a few variety of tricks, then MSXA, if you are beginner, then Metallic Comssa, a little more advanced, then SEVEN G3. Stay away from Buster. ZT just fails (for me)

What's the difference between a Metal Comssa and a Metal SG Comssa? I realize that the grip is different, but do they feel the same or is one heavier/has more momentum than the other? (What does SG even stand for? xD)

@Reggi SG stands for Sailor Gel, its the grip used. The SG will make it a tiny bit heavier, and it will feel different. Thats all it changes.

Hey UPSB, Long time reader, first time poster. I've been pen spinning for about a year or so. My friends and I have used this site to learn all we know about PS. Anyway, I started with a pencil then went on to a regular RSVP with two caps. I was wondering what pen mod would be good if i planned to move up in the pen spinning world. Im not exactly a begginner, and money really isnt an object, so complexity and price really arent issues. Also, if the pen could actually write, that would be best. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Since you're not horribly inexperienced I would suggest buying the parts for a Mesi G3 pen mod from Penwish. It's a good pen to introduce yourself to the world of pen modification, it's not HORRIBLY difficult. The only thing would be cutting grips straight and drilling a hole. Also it can write and it's a very nice pen to spin. -

It's mostly personal preference. The kUzu G3 is very heavy. I'd stay away from that if you are a somewhat beginner. With me, I love the SEVEN mod. It's like, one of the best G3 mods for me. The Coulomb mod is also not bad, but I'd say a key3 G3 is more likeable. So yeah. If you are advanced, then go for the kUzu mod, if you are intermediate, choose SEVEN. It'll be awesome. -

Seven is pretty easy to make too, there's nothing in it that's harder than any other G3 mod. -
Date: Thu, Mar 3 2011 03:03:14
@Holypie I'm aware that it is easy to make, but considering the grip rings needed in cap just makes grip cutting slightly harder for new modders. Also, the parts to make a SEVEN is much harder to get and it cost more compared to a coulomb mod. (and this is why my first G3 mod is a coulomb mod). But then again, I havent mod my SEVEN yet (i just got the parts), so I dont exactly know how it spins compared to coulomb G3 mod. PrinceXD

Date: Thu, Mar 3 2011 03:15:23
There's only 2 cuts that need to be done, the white signo in the front and the white grip at the back (usually signo). The latter isn't even necessary. Anyway he said price is irrelevant so if that's the case I'd definitely get Seven.

Is it writable because I'm looking on penwish for a good somewhat lightish mod that is writeable.

Just another question, do you think that I should get the ZT mod or the Waterfall mod? I am pretty sure that I should get the Waterfall, because of its better spinability, but still, at the same time, I like how you can shorten the mod and lessen the weight, which I think is pretty sick. So which one do you think I should get? Thanks.
-
Date: Sat, Mar 5 2011 05:50:07
@A.Sate Personally I like Coulomb's better aesthetically. I don't know about spinning wise because I've never had Key3 so it wouldn't be fair for me to make that judgement.

Date: Sat, Mar 5 2011 06:31:24
Yea thanks nachoaddict. I was leaning towards coulomb cause it looked nice, and since I already had hi-tec c tips and HGG tips lying around And Jacob, go with the waterfall, Im sure it will feel more familiar. The ZT has a different body, and it might be hard to spin at first. Its also lighter too ;)

VGG mod, weights a lot?
-
Date: Tue, Mar 8 2011 07:36:12
I dont think there is a "heaviest mod" cause ppl can just put Signo tips and HGG tips into their Busters Comssa cap and theyve made a mod from about 27g. If you want to, you also can use a full metal or stell body and have an even heavier mod but that would be weird. I think everyone should figure out his/her personal favourite but everything about 25g is kinda weird imo, although VGG is one of my favourites. Just to list some heavy ones - afair!!: Dr KT = 20g kUzU Mod = 20g Buster = 22g VGG = 23g But everything depends on modding on the used tips, tape, if you used plasticine-like stuff to arrange tips or whatever. Differences of 1g are normal I guess.

I'm fairly new to pen spinning and am looking for a good double sided mod, I have a bictory and a RSVP toro right now, the bictory is a little thin and lighter than what I'm used to since my main pen has been the toro. Dr. KT sounds like a really fun pen but I'm just not ready for that weight yet, what would be a good pen to build? I don't really know how people measure their hand size but people have always told me I have small hands and I would have to agree, so a super long pen might not be the best idea. I read the faq but there are just so many options it's overwhelming, I guess what I'm really wondering is if there is a really popular mod that is highly recommended? I will provide more information if needed.

Signo tipped with your choice of grips is about as much as you'll ever need. I personally use Signo + Hgg tipped DC. My recommendation is the Namae DC Mod. Dr.KT was my first "real" mod, kind of wish I had gotten something else, plus Dr.KT is a bit expensive.

Metal comssa "Green diamond" Or Waterfall mod? This will be my first mod. Right now i'm just using a pencil with 2 eraser things on the ends.
-
Date: Mon, Mar 14 2011 21:34:18
First mod, then use Green Diamond. Get the waterfall for later.

I have a BICtory which I use for a practice pen, and it's decent but the barrel/tube of the pen is a bit too light. So any suggestions on making specifically the barrel heavier or substitutes for that barrel part?
-
Date: Tue, Mar 15 2011 04:07:07
for more weight, add grips, tips or rings on the caps....idk abt the barrel
-
Date: Tue, Mar 15 2011 04:24:51
add grips/tips on both ends of the pen that will give you more momentum and make it easier to spin.

How does the Minnovate DC (v.1 or v.2) compare to a Waterfall, and a normal Minwoo Mod to a F1r3fly G3? They seem fairly similar.

Regular minwoo and f1r3fly are much heavier than a minovate dc, and it's pretty similar to a waterfall. I'd say waterfall is a little heavier, with a little more momentum. -

Is there a mod like rsvp mx (long, single sided) but writes with the other side of the pen?

There's always a G3MX, and MX variations, like MMT.

Hello im new to pen spinning and i have mastered half of my fundamentals(Charge Sonic) and some other tricks (Twisted Sonic, Infinity) So I recently made my own Pen mod from savaged It is quite long and heavy<3x of a Pencil and I don't know if I should be spinning with that much weight because i heard you should start out with a lighter pen(I use to spin with a Pencil) I like spinning heavy and Longer pens it feels like im in control. i was thinking of buying a RSVP MX or a Metal comssa Which one would you recommend
-
Date: Sat, Mar 19 2011 10:18:30
RSVP MX: Slippery body, cool stuff for newbie Metallic Comssa:Thinner body, almost like a round pencil but plastic, nice momentum, awesome mod for anyone I would recommend both :) @ILikePens

Both are same weight, RSVP mx is back heavy but metal comssa is balanced
-
Date: Thu, Mar 24 2011 23:45:32
Do you think I should get a cheat comssa? I know it is pretty heavy, for I don't like really heavy mods. I am around a 3-3.5 month spinner. Thanks!
-
Date: Mon, Mar 28 2011 05:39:19
what's considered a light, medium, and heavy mod? (weight wise), like is 14 grams light?
-
Date: Mon, Mar 28 2011 22:55:58
@jet To me, anything over 13 g is medium mod, and anything over 17 g is a heavy mod. Anything under 13g is a light mod.
-
Date: Wed, Mar 30 2011 06:15:12
bictory, comssa, or metallic comssa are probably your best bet
-

well, my buster got stolen (as well as my vgg) so i have no super long.heavy mods to learn power tricks (namely hai- tua) with anymore. I managed a hai-tua, once with my dr kt, and can do 7 busts with my kt. Should i stick with my KT or get another mod?

I'd say keep it, but get another mod with similar weight and different spinning space, since I, personally think the spinning space for the KT is a bit small for powertricks. But it's mostly up to you. Minwoo mod is a pretty good idea. -

alright thanks @V-Storm :) im getting one from riley XD

It has to write and be about 19 cm long

euh....are those really your sugestions? I would say, if your a beginner.. start with the RSVP MX, and a metal commsa! if you are a advanced, it depends on your style!!

msxa, metal comssa, comssa dc and buster. no kidding not the buster xD

rsvp mx or mxsa
-
Date: Thu, Apr 7 2011 14:26:23
You can try Metal Comssa? I think that's what you'd look for. You can make the Retractable version yourself, but it'll be quite hard for a beginner. :p http://penwish.com/advanced_search_result.php?osCsid=ac24e46216cce43e49cf3517e92cb41d&keywords=metal+comssa
-
Date: Fri, Apr 8 2011 12:44:47
Get a Metal Comssa from Penwish then mod your comssa if you want it to be heavier e.g put signos on it or grips.
-
Date: Fri, Apr 8 2011 21:10:52
haha, I get to spend LESS than 50 on Penwish, what should i get? I already have a ZT Original, a Waterfall Original, a homemade MonAmi Retractable, a homemade rsvp, and a buster cyl. I've been spinning since late september of last year, but i would say i know quite a many moves (but just not good at linkages) so what should i get? o yeah and i'm also getting the material for fir3fly g3, so uh.. think of stuff that'll total under 35-40 please! thanks... and shuddup about me havin a buster so early.

I'll sell you my f1r3fly for $15 at school... But I would suggest a cheat comssa. Very similar to a waterfall, and cheap. -

Waterfall is perfect for you :) Or, a metal comssa, maybe ?

@TheHawkeyeHuH actually firefly g3 isnt hard... just a few small files and cuts. you could make product sc (recommended completely) or an ayatori (pretty heavy, but it writes)
-
Date: Sun, Apr 10 2011 20:52:05
@TheHawkeyeHuH maybe you should get a coupl light to medium mods like J74Q is looking for. its always good to have those light mods:D

Hey guys :D what should i make? Rsvp mx, Rsvp nx mmt, Momentum Mx or RSVP ST?

@J74Q: About how big is your hand? That will determine which pen you would like the best
-
Date: Tue, Apr 12 2011 22:55:43
Pretty much. Make a AMMX. You'll love it. RSVP ST looks weird.

small hands :D

I'm looking for a pen mod with the following specs: Longish (20+ish CM) - I have Waterfall and Buster CYL. They are both pretty good lengths Heavier - my Waterfall Mod feels heavier than my Buster, but around the weight of either is fine Balanced Most importantly: WRITABLE! I'd stick with Waterfall/Buster except that neither of them write. I need a mod that I can take to class and write with. Preferably not too difficult to assemble, but that's not that important. Price range is very flexible. Let me know!
-
Date: Sun, Apr 17 2011 17:08:44
i have a Dr.Kt and its beast! but is a Buster CYL a better choice?
-
Date: Sun, Apr 17 2011 17:11:02
I'm a KT-for-life spinner. I have a buster and I hate it. I just wish that KT had more spinning space, so yeah. KT is good.

i dont spin a kt and a buster cuz theyre both too short for me -.- spin a waterfall :P

Date: Sun, Apr 17 2011 17:45:12
I'm a buster spinner, it's ok...sorta heavy stick with your KT, it's better (lighter, better body [I think]) ur choice though...I don't own a KT so I dunno...
-
Date: Sun, Apr 17 2011 17:56:28
Depends on your hand size. Dr. KT - Short Hands Buster - Long Hands
-
Date: Sun, Apr 17 2011 18:04:23
I like the buster and the KT. Its just that the buster for me feels kinda heavy and light at the same time while the KT is stable. I also believe that the KT is more durable and wont attract as much dust as the buster.
-
Date: Sun, Apr 17 2011 18:06:14
in my pencase there is only a Buster but I tried once EK his KT, and I think it is REALLY AWSOME!!! :P so I love the KT more than the Buster cyl!
-
Date: Sun, Apr 17 2011 18:09:56
making a frixion mod and putting your KT caps on it makes it a longer KT, the weight distribution is almost identical to me :3
-
Date: Mon, Apr 18 2011 20:47:15
Are there any other pens that are fairly light. Nothing too far off from a MX or really close to that weight. Right now i have a rsvp mx, metallic sailor grip comssa, comssa w/profile grips, Bictory w/rsvp grips. Going to make a retractable mx soon also xD

I think you should get an S360 KT and the Buster, because the S360 KT comes in so many different colors. Just my opinion, though. -

Ponkotu's tutorial looks different from the wiki. link: http://annkou2.blog105.fc2.com/blog-entry-280.html Ballsign mod (bonkura氏仕様) If you use google translate, it will say: Ballsign mod (bonkura spec says) I'm just curious, which one is real? The one in the wiki or the one in ponkotu's modding blog?
-
Date: Wed, May 18 2011 23:01:32
It's basically a change of grips. I dunno, but i think Ponkotu interchanged the Supergrip and Dr grip. In one of the tutorial videos, if i remember correctly, Bonkura used a longer length of Dr Grip and just 2 sections of Supergrip, for each side.

I don't have THAT mod, but I do have a normal KT. They're awesome, and is my favorite mod. Spinning space isn't that large, but you'll be fine if you spin RSVP or G3 mods in the past. idk about the sticker, but it should feel alright. Weight is perfect. Just enough for powertricking and best for flow of combos.

I would like somebody to suggest to me a pen mod that's about the weight of a Waterfall Mod, maybe slightly heavier, and double capped. As long as it's not a Buster CYL, because then I'll be called a Buster noob repeatedly by Van. I also would like it to be double capped. Hopefully this is in the right section... Suggest and discuss, I guess? Also, I have been spinning for about 5 months. And the mod can't be a waterfall mod. Hopefully, it's also good for handbusting. :O.

So guys i'm pretty new at PSing and i need help picking 3 mods to order. I'm thinking: 1st Pen: Metal Comssa (To Start) 2nd Pen: Waterfall (Switch To This Once I Get Better) 3rd Pen: .....? (If I Get Really Good) Let me know what you guys think!
-
Date: Tue, Jun 28 2011 05:41:33
dont think you should plan it like that since changing mods should be actually a smooth process not something like "shit I got all the fundamentals, lets change mods" you can technically stick to metallic comssa during your whole PSing life.. And I can see why you pick those 2 mods because of what other people rated? Although those 2 mods are highly recommended, you wont know if its your "cup-of-tea" until you spinned a lot of mods and actually tested out which mod suits you best. PrinceXD

-
Date: Wed, Jul 6 2011 00:24:51
Probably an MX or a BiCtory The Any-X is also good for a beginner, it's light, retractable so it's a perfect school mod, and not insanely hard to mod

Date: Wed, Jul 6 2011 01:01:09
technically a stable Any-X is not easy to mod. you also need quite a lot of "tools" to mod one (and yes im talking about the original one..) school mod.. its alright but there are other mods which are more stable too.. RSVP MX, metallic comssa... etc.. i actually prefer a beginner to spin a "stabler" mod, since u wont really experience flying parts everywhere when u drop ur mod. PrinceXD

a dr grip gripped comssa(american dr grips, japanese shaker grips are too heavy), has decent momentum and if you want it to be longer use a crayola twistable pencil.

Date: Wed, Jul 6 2011 01:58:41
a lot of these are so true, if ur looking for something cheap, and easy to find and mod, maybe a dc supertip with american dr grip grip and wooden pencil erasers (pink ones) in the outside of the caps, where you could fit like a tip or sumthing

-

i would say probably comssa or bictory w/ signo grips(or a similar grips) if you wanna spin SC mods i guess MX or just an inkless RSVP would do fine :)

I really prefer to spin mods that use the Crayola ST. I want to upgrade to the MinWoo, but it doesn't appear to be a good writable mod. What would be great, if someone would invent a mod that would let you twist the pen tips and have a writable ink tip appear.

Most mods aren't writable. Basically no mods using Crayola Supertips are writable, unless you mod it to write. In my experience, it doesn't work too well.

You can mod the buster to write, cut 1cm off an rsvp inktube and stick it in the front end, put an hgg tip onto it and voila

If you have a mod with a cap on the front of an ST body (where the felt tip of the marker would have been), You can take a Bic Stic inktube and put it in there and it fits pretty well. Thats how I made my personal mod writable for school
-
Date: Wed, Jul 6 2011 21:47:36
There's a mod called the buyran mod, or something along the lines of that. It uses a ST body, and is writable. The tutorial is on thespyre, which isn't loading for me right now. I'll edit this pots witha link if thespyre starts to work for me.

Hey guys, I'm looking for a mod that's 20 - 22 cm long. Please post the name, weight, length, and maybe some of your opinions on the mods. Currently, I have: Dr. ST - 21 cm Waterfall - 21 cm MSXA - 21 cm Seven G3 - 20 cm S.S.S. - 20 cm F1r3fly g3 - 21 cm SX (G3 cap) - 21 cm Minnovate DC - 20.5 cm The Emboss Mod is a bit too fat for me, otherwise it's a great pen. Buster, Minwoo, Ivan, VGG, they're too heavy for my taste. 20 cm pens fit my hand almost perfectly, and 21 cm pens are my favorite. However, my hand is still growing, so I'm pretty sure I'll grow into 22 cm pens. Thanks :D

I've been spinning cheap pens which require little or no modding such as.... ->Pencil with 2 faber castel rubbers attached to either side ->Lots of cheap pens with faber castell rubbers attacked to either side ->And a Firefly G3 that I've destroyed (Failed to Improve, last weight 70< grams, because I actually put screws inside the barrels):stupid: ->Zhi Gao pens (both the RM 6 one and the RM 15 one) The pen I'm using now is the RM 15 Zhi Gao and i love it BUT I feel like I'm am incomplete as a pen spinner without an official pen mod I love long and heavy pens because I need the stability that long and heavy pens provide because i mostly do palm down tricks (shadows of all sorts and of all slots) and top spins, preferably >22cm and as heavy, or as heavy as a Zhigao. Oh, and preferably with pens that can be found in Malaysia So.... Any suggesions?
-
Date: Sat, Jul 30 2011 03:27:51
Well if you're looking for long and heavy a VicGotGame mod or a Buster CYL seems like just the pens for you. I'm not sure if you can find those parts in Malaysia though because I'm unfamiliar with the pen stores there. There should be a resource in the Regular Pens area that can tell you about that. Also, there is a thread already about pen mod recommendations so you should probably try posting in there next time ;)

Hey, I started pen spinning about 4 months ago. So far, I have been using a normal pencil with erasers on both side. It's time to get a better pen and i'm asking the UPSB for recommandations. First of all, I would like a pen that looks like a normal pen, not some sort of stick. Preferably, it should be possible to write with the pen. I have read that the RSVP MX is good for beginners and looked up some pre-modded pens from Penwish (too lazy to mod myself). Maybe one of these? Are those pens writeable? As I mentioned I'm a total noob, so any recommandations is appreciated.

bonkura kt! ALWAYS wanted to have one since the last one and a half year.

The first three are all pretty similar performance wise just with switched grips and caps. Albeit the Dr. Grip grip on a Bonkura KT will be heavier than Sailor grip. Never tried an s360 KT myself though but personally I don't like the look.
-

what's heavier, the lakubo jell mod or the seven mod? i've been spinning for 6-7 months and i'm looking for something heavier than my bictory, while being one sided and preferably writable for school.

@kydd lakubo jell being ayatori mod (which is 16g)? seven g3 is 14g. almost everything is heavier than a BICtory >_> PrinceXD

I've been PSing for about a month now, and got a package from Penwish and got materials to make a Buster CYL. I've been spinning the Buster for about a week now and i soon found out that this is not the pen that i should be spinning. I heard that this pen will strain my fingers, ruin my style, and overall make it harder for me to spin in the future because there won't be a heavier pen to spin. So should i just stick to my Buster since i already have it or set it aside and spin another mod. And if i should spin another mod, then which one and why?
-
Date: Sun, Aug 14 2011 14:58:48
spin another mod, like the rsvp mx if you can get 1. IMO the best pen for a begginer :)
-
Date: Sun, Aug 14 2011 15:41:40
i think u should use metal comssa (hgg tipped comssa double caps) or RSVP mx like @Spin4fun said or maybe u should use ballsign mod (the mod of Bonkura).......because these mods are light mods (~10 - 15g), it wont strain ur fingers and u can spin well with it.......and 'bout the Buster Cyl....use it when u reach the level of 5 months and it's very good idea.......:):)
-
Date: Sun, Aug 14 2011 15:45:38
if you can switch from heavy mods to light mods then its okay to continue to spin your buster, if not, then get a lighter mod such as a waterfall mod
-
Date: Sun, Aug 14 2011 19:46:12
Waterfall, metal comSsa, Mx, Bictory, are all GREAT beginner mods. Once you are done learning new tricks, then switch to a buster.
-
Date: Sun, Aug 14 2011 20:32:58
stick with the buster try adding some extra weight at the end (more airfit tips)

Metal Comssa and RSVP MX are perfect for starters.

Minwoo mod
-
Date: Mon, Aug 29 2011 08:38:31
Seven g3, I like it more mainly because its one of the few single sided mods that have a balanced body. A single sided mod may be balanced, but the spin space itself may not be. This is also why many Taiwanese spinners prefer this for beginners, as they do not have MXs. Hope I helped!
-
Date: Mon, Aug 29 2011 08:41:53
if you're a beginner get a seven mod

yeaaaahh well im getting one regardless just wanted suggestions on which would be good ones :P
-
Date: Mon, Sep 5 2011 00:45:36
Yeah probably a RSVP Mx or a dc commsa
-
Date: Mon, Sep 5 2011 00:55:49
rsvp mx, metalic comssa, bictory, ballsign, g3 mx etc
-
Date: Mon, Sep 5 2011 01:27:48
you probably dont need to use penwish at this point in you spinning journey, greenman11 covered the ones i would suggest. im 5 months spinning zt tipped bictory. i suggest it because it's cheap and you most likely have access to it without using penwish. also if you get the ultra round stic grip ones you can put inserts and make it look smexy :)

Date: Mon, Sep 5 2011 01:55:52

Date: Mon, Sep 5 2011 03:07:34
i would say metallic commsa or bictory because rsvp mx is a bit unbalanced which make some tricks to learn a bit harder to learn such as bakfall. Since metallic comssa and bictory is double sided it's completly balanced which makes it a bit easier for learning trick :).That's from what i experience when i started pen spinning. :)
-
Date: Mon, Sep 5 2011 05:03:12
Bictory was my first pen. Just make it and add g2 grips on the ends.
-
Date: Mon, Sep 5 2011 05:09:31
Metal Comssa is good. Although I would try experimenting with personal mods first. Those will develop your own unique style because it's your own unique pen.
-
Date: Mon, Sep 5 2011 06:38:06
Thanks for all the input, looking like ill probably go with Bictory but for now this is my personal setup: Prang Drawing 3B pencil with newbie mod eraser grips

Hi all :D just bought a RSVP Tribal MX from penwish. Was it a good choice(i hope so ><)? im quite new to pen spinning :/ Anyway, can i write with RSVP Tribal MX ? does it have ink inside?
-
Date: Wed, Sep 7 2011 16:16:36
Welcome :) Yeah it is, and yes you can write with it..reversed direction tho, you don't write from the tip lol take off the cap and you will see the inktube poking out of the backplug.
-
Date: Wed, Sep 7 2011 17:06:31
i would say it was an okay choice, a better choice would of been a double side comssa mod
-
Date: Wed, Sep 7 2011 17:12:11
This is a question not thread-worthy, ask the shoutbox next time. Anyway yes it does write. :welcome:
-
Date: Thu, Sep 8 2011 01:21:21
Yes, it writes. It's a really nice pen which is good for building style and learning fundamentals. I got a Sakura MX which is the same thing and I love it. I told my friends to get tribal MX as their first pen, but they hated it cause it was too "short". But I think it's perfect.

-
Date: Sat, Sep 17 2011 17:24:33
You could ask these kind of shit on the sb .___. But you asked for it so id give you something. If you want mods with more weight on the center then go for msxa and if vice versa go for the waterfall. Id go for the waterfall IF i were you tho.

So its been a week, went ahead with a few of your suggestions, I've made RSVP MX, Bictory with g2 grips, and i still use my drawing pencil with eraser tips (super light) sometimes. I've now got TA, Ta/rev, Sonic, Twisted Sonic, Warped Sonic, FingerPass, FP/rev, Charge, Infinity, in my arsenal... I definitely prefer the Bictory as a beginner, often i will float back between Bictory and my light pencil mod, but im not feeling the RSVP just yet, its a bigger pen (wider) and much heavier compared to other two, great pen but ill work my way up to it. Thanks for all input guys

key3 is very short and light, If you liek to spin them sure Kuzu is basically a sc kt. Other suggestion i have is ayatori (similar to kuzu) mesi g3 mod soschie g3 mod -

Date: Tue, Sep 20 2011 23:37:36
Lol you spin my mod? :D Anyways Ayatori you'll need a gripcut as well. I'd go with Key3 as well if you like something closer to the SSS. You can also try a Seven G3 mod but those parts are also kind of hard to get in the U.S. so if Kuzu parts are hard, Seven parts will probably be similar.

Ok just to warn you key 3 is like 15cm very short and light. -
Date: Wed, Sep 21 2011 04:48:13
Most G3 mods are short because of the short G3 barrel and the fact a lot of G3 mods are kind of just tip stack + grip scheme + G3 barrel + grip scheme + tip stack + cap
-
Date: Fri, Sep 23 2011 23:14:46
Well, I have made a BIXtory. Here's some pictures:
I made it with a BIC Ultra Round Stic Grip Pen. It has the two ink cartridges in it still. It's about 20.1cm with the caps and 18.8cm without the caps.
It's kind of light. And the two plastic grips they have with the original pen is still there and not cut.
Is this good for me? I'm a beginner. -
Date: Fri, Sep 23 2011 23:20:12
i think it's nice. you should use white body so something. it looks weird without insert. But nice. :)

BICtory is a great beginner pen.
-
Date: Sat, Sep 24 2011 01:45:49
Bictory works when you are still learning/ perfecting the basics. Once you get more intermediate-y go for something in the 12-15 gram range, but I'm not suggesting getting into KTs, Busters or any other heavies just yet. Also: SOYP before making another thread.
-

I believe he should mod an RSVP next. KT is too much and can be expensive to get the materials for. But it is his choice, but I say make an RSVP MX next.;)

Hi guys, just wondering whether or not the SEVEN mod is worth buying from Penwish. I'm trying to get use to SC mods since I always and only spin DC's. No I don't want an ayatori, RSVP MX because I have one, nor a Minwoo (too heavy). I'm not much of a modder myself so......thanks in advance. ^_^

Firefly G3 is horrible to spin; I think people get it for aesthetics and looks. Kuzu G3 is aesthetically appealing too but very heavy. Not sure about spinnability though. Minwoo G3 is perfect for spinning and the striping effect is nice. But the down side is that it's too heavy as well. -

So when i started pen spinning i knew i needed a better pen than a #2, so i used random pens around my house (Pilot G-2 05 grips, FRIXION caps and pens bodies, and a BIC tip). I ended up making a mod that was pretty long and heavy (1 inch longer than my CYL), then after awhile i bought parts for a Buster CYL and put them together and it was alot lighter and shorter than im used to. Now im looking for a long and heavy mod. THanks in advance!

If a buster CYL feels light to you, something's wrong with you. Use a waterfall, or something 12-16 grams.

Using HGG tips? THAT IS NOT A BUSTER CYL AT ALL. It's just a subbed metal comssa, which has only about 60% of the weight of a Buster CYL. Geez, you have no idea about heaviness of mods, learn more. Any subbed material will lead to a TOTALLY DIFFERENT mod.

hey guys sry if i posted 2 threads in a row, but i have to ask some question(sorry if my questions are long.. but please read it ><).. im planning to mod Nachoaddict's Rsvp, Yelo Mod, Stuhl mod variation A.K.A pirate ks.. in your opinion guys.. do you think its worth modding these few mods?.. P/S: im Not good at cutting grips.. but modding gives me a ''Victory sign'' when i Sucessfully moded a mod.. besides that, Im thinking of getting 3 dr series, Bonkura kt (From pw.. Dr grip grip), Emarald KT, Orange KT.. I love dr series mods :P .. do you think its worth getting so much dr mods?.. and Im not gonna Buy the whole mod.. im going to mod the 3 dr pens.. and another question.. what color will be matching to the KTs? (AC body).. ( CT caps).. I love the colour emarald on the CT caps.. so im definitely going to get that color.. bonkura KT is original so im going to get that too.. but for the Orange KT im not sure Should i get Orange or other colors? or should i combine the colors? ex. Green,Orange .. etcetc.. and is there any other medium weighted mod you guys can recommend me from pw? except waterfall,seven,Dr series.... and is the Flying panda mod worth to get? The reviews in Pw looks decent! But the only problem of the mod is.. The mod is Really plain.. all white.. which i dislike :/ :: THANK YOU FOR READING GUYS!! HOPE THAT YOU GUYS CAN REPLY MY QUESTION IN FULL FORM ^^ ::

imo i dont like the flying panda mod, and not alot of ppl use it anyways, so what does that tell you? use whatever colors you like for your kt, i like blue and pink, or green and orange, but you could try your own color combinations, you might prefer and makes it more unique -

You don't have click stics where you live? they're really cheap and common too..... Bictory is a really simple mod for people just, just starting. But, a good mod for beginners (start to around 2 months at least, maybe more if you like it's feel) is a metal comssa, that or an RSVP MX

waterfall mod for an all around mod. If yuor goign to focus on cont tricks, power tricks etc use the buster cyl. waterfall is my main mod anyway.

Date: Wed, Nov 16 2011 01:03:55
start out with a lighter mod, NOT like a buster... waterfall mod is a great mod for all-around tricks, like neoknux_009 said
-
Date: Wed, Nov 16 2011 01:39:20
I personally use a buster, but I'm a year old spinner, so that's...hopefully okay. Haha, if it isn't then woopsies, because I'm starting to warm up to power tricks. If you aren't a year old spinner or if you're not an Advanced spinner, definitely get a Waterfall. I used a Waterfall mod, it was very smooth, medium weight, and a bit long, but it's heavily recommended - lots of advanced spinners use it.

@wee~ Stick to the mods you have until you learn more tricks, you don't need to consider new ones. I would recommend your bictory/comssa and then move onto the waterfall when you feel you're ready. Whichever mod you use is your preference really, which of those three mods of the bictory comssa and MX do you like most? Also, I'm looking at the Buster CYL and an AirComssa(Airfit tipped Comssa) to use in power tricks once I have mastered them. Is there really a difference between the two?

Everyone has the right to correct someone else's mistakes BUT they're not meant to do it while flaming or in a forceful way. It usually helps when you're nice, and not telling them they're a newfag. -

it's a solid mod with which you can practice due to its relatively centered momentum, but it limits your style with its heavy feel i usually started a trick with a waterfall, then slowly moved on to mods that suited my style for that trick once i got good at it which is probably why people dont use the waterfall that much in videos since its so styleless

Hmm okay, so how would the waterfall affect that though?

Date: Mon, Feb 6 2012 02:18:17
it's really controlled as in heavy all-around so it's hard to make your spinning have more extravagance/douchiness

Would it make your penspinning more smooth though?

yes, waterfall has tons of momentum and therefore will smooth your spinning. I don't believe that it will cancel out your style but oh well everybody has diff opinions.

metal comssa is probably the best pen for starters. It's inexpensive, semi light weight in today's terms and spins well. Waterfall is a good mod ' as well but much heavier and little longer. It really depends on what you prefer to spin. Waterfall also uses a pirat body whcih has a unique feel that's hard to describe. Both are fine choices.

If I usually spin a waterfall, would you recommend a namae mod or ck mod (I like the feel of the namae body but I'm told it is light) Also @Honda1616 If you are just starting then metal comssa if you have been spinning for 4 months to 6 months then waterfall mod

Agree with Froggy, but if you are used to heavy mods go for signo tipped, it will make the transition easier and you will become smoother quicker.

I am a six-month spinner. While in the shout box someone asked me how long I had been spinning and I told them I had been spinning for six months (somewhere around six months) and then they asked me what mods I had. I told him I had a BICtory and a Buster CYL. He told me to not use a buster until I'm around 1 year because it would ruin my style. So my question is: What pen mods could I buy? I don't just want to spin a BICtory but I want to use light mods. If using a specific pen that has a specific weight when you're a noob affect you're style, then which mods could I use to get a style like the one vic or supawit has. I want a smooth style so when I'm a pro when people see me spin I want to make it look effortless. So which pen mods should I get?

Well I found a mod that i like alot and i want to make it. (waterfall) I just need a sub for the Reynolds caps and maybe the signo tips because I cant find those in America. Any responses are appreciated. :banana:

Date: Sat, Apr 14 2012 21:31:51
Cant do it, reynolds are the only pens outside with that looks. Of course u can always mod a cheat comssa with dr.grip grips and super pirat body and ur gonna have something alike.
There are ways to attach signo tips to comssa caps.
yes, and the best one is to make hgg+signo tip, aint that called cheat comssa?^^ -
Date: Sat, Apr 14 2012 22:11:24
One of the only other caps that holds signos well is the old Namae cap, very hard to find. There are ways to attach signo tips to comssa caps. TUL tips are a signo tip substitute.

wait how can you not find signo tips in america? I believe officemax sells signos. And as for a reynolds cap sub, good luck. You're not going to find a good sub. Even if you find a look-alike cap, most likely it won't fit a signo tip.
-
Date: Sat, Apr 14 2012 22:46:56
I have never seen METAL signos in Michigan, but it is possible that there are some elsewhere in the US. Reynolds are almost impossible to sub, just order from penwish.com. If you aren't allowed, get a friend to do it.

In that case, it depends on whether you like SC or DC. I think the weights are pretty similar. Whichever style you have, spin the mod that corresponds to it.

trade with someone if you can't order online. what you are asking for doesn't really exist. that's why psing is an international community/hobby since most good parts/pens come from a variety of countries. Also please post in one thread. I merged your other thread. thx

You can make a vicgotgame mod but without the tips. It uses: 2x Crayola supertip 2x RSVP 1x Dr. Grip http://www.upsb.info/forum/index.php?showtopic=23517&hl=vicgotgame+mod Alternatively, bictories are extremely simple to make, but they can be quite nice if you kit them out with grips/tips. I'm partial to RSVP grips and anyball/profile grips. http://www.upsb.info/wiki/index.php?title=Bictory If you want a great DC, you could also spring for a ballsign mod http://www.upsb.info/wiki/index.php?title=Ballsign_mod The best way to "Ameri-mod" this is to cut the ringed section of a G2 grip and throw it on each end rather than a Dr. Grip. You can then take a small ring of G2 grip to put on the top of it in place of a super grip. If you're looking to make the ballsign, you should look for them under their American name, Gelly Roll. They're not easy to find in convenience store-type shops but you *can* find them. They're fairly common in stationary and art shops (Michael's and the Hallmark Store have been quite successful for me.) That's all I got for now. Let me know if you have other questions -

@Unique_Little_Git trade with people in the phils.... and get a decent medium sized mod Ram, chobi all can trade with you. Those are horrible mods to start out with. Make a MX or mx variation and go from there. No need to jump to 20+g mods off the bat. Most intermediate ish spinners would never consider those you selectee. If you want to get somethere there get a simple mx or metal comssa pack. Then move up later. again i recommend trading in the phils. Much cheaper and probably better mods for you.

Actually I was going to put those away until I got better. And I can't trade because of reasons.

it's not allowed anywhere but everyone does it. Put it in a security envelope (basically cannot see through it) and it is fine. Chobi and ram should be able to help you out. It's probably more reliable mail system inside phils than stores like pw or pds international shipping is always ghetto sometimes to phils. phils customs = terribad

that's fine. that would work.

-
Date: Tue, May 1 2012 08:09:46
Anything you like. All DC have even weight distribution, so they spin pretty much the same. Just difference in weight and momentum. So just pick whatever it pleases your eyes, and go for it. Frog~

The original VGG mod can be bought from penwish, and the emboss is also plenty long enough. Eurocracy DC v1, v2 and v3 will also have their length bonuses and are heavy. -

yeah, like my personal supawit DC mod uses AC bodies, sailors, airfit tips i really like it. i recommend making a supawit DC air art color bodies. It is the best(feel, fits nicely, easier to cut unlike the other, and the body doesnt warp easily.) its pretty much my main mod i had a saturn mod, its nice, i really liked it, then i broke it, but its not really worth spending like 6$ (unless ur @Roas ) and the time to wait to get them for playcolors to repair it, there are better mods out there! -
Date: Thu, May 17 2012 23:37:55
That sounds good but the only thing I don't like about art colors is the writing on the barrel is there any different bodies i could use ? that's the main reason I was leaning towards Saturn mod Damn I coulda ordered one instead of my yellow waterfall mod ahahs Oh and how long is the mod you were talking about? ^o^

i had my personal supawit mod for somewhere around 5-7 weeks, and first now the writing is starting to fade away, i think its becsue of my friend, because i never make writing fade, but he faded the writing on his buster within like 2 days(not including spinnig it @ school) i really like AC feel, if you want black you can get color twin(which are the cheapest @ $2.90), but dont get keityo bodies. Even those the chinese writing is cool, the body get warped before you complete the mod. the KT body is very flexy, easy to break. and my personal supawit mod is around 22cm. you can make it any length you want, range is like 20cm-27 maybe, or you can get VGG mod, which i dont like super tip bodies as much.

I personally prefer Buster CYL, because i think Ivan Mod feels to light, the Supertip body + comssa caps have a really good weight distribution and feels very nice for me, also i think Ivan Mod is a really unsafe mod D: .. so.. Ivan is longer and Buster feels heavier. Sometimes people say Ivan is just a stick! So, which one do you think is better? Why? Buster Cyl
Ivan Mod

Date: Fri, May 18 2012 03:48:33
i use the two mods for totally different reasons... theyre both too heavy for me regularly, so i replaced my buster tips with the jell tips and its still barely spinnable for me. i usually only use it when im bored and doing some power linkages. and the ivan mod weight distribution feels off if i use jell tips, so i only use my ivan mod when im trying to do like triple punkan or something stupid like that...

From what I've heard Ivan mod requires a lot of glue which would be a pain if it breaks Although my buster is getting too small so I'm not sure :/
-
Date: Fri, May 18 2012 03:56:16
None, they aren't heavy enough. Since I am Peem, I no longer spin such mods. I spin these now.
I will be making a new tut on this mod soon. (sun)

ivan mod doesnt require glue... -
Date: Fri, May 18 2012 04:08:47
Ok, enough fun. Well let's see, Ivan mod's construction is made on supertip bodies and airfit parts whereas a buster, you'll need the backplug and caps. So Ivan mod sort of saves money and hassle to get another different pen. On the other hand, some modders hate cutting bodies/barrels for Ivan mod. :/ Some people may have problems with Busters because it may be back heavy if the spinner/modder didn't correctly construct it but the Ivan mod is fairly balanced. Ivan mod is indeed lighter so some people prefer it. It also has a lot of spin space as opposed to a buster. It's all according to your preferences. Sorry for the long paragraph, lol.....I'm bored. -____-

Ivan Mod, because the "caps" dont stretch or fall off like Busters. Ivan mods dont need glue lol... But that's the only difference between the two mods, or they're both identical.
-
Date: Fri, May 18 2012 09:52:10
for me, Ivan mod is better because The Bumps of the Buster irritates me XD. when I do 'grippy' tricks, sometimes I feel it when I spin. And I spin better? lol . My bust record using buster is only 5 , while my ivan mod record of busts is 8 lol. imo only

For spinning, I like the ivan mod a lot more, but I just hate the way it looks, since the barrel is the same as the caps, it does just look like a rod. :/ I like the look of the buster though.

I think I prefer Ivan than Buster.....Ivan is longer....but the problem with Ivan is u need the old supertips body( the big one)...I did Ivan mod with the new supertips body( the small one) and after spinning for a while, the caps are out of the body....:| It is kind of uncomfortable with the new supertips body if u make Ivan with it

Date: Sat, May 19 2012 00:43:12
Wait now I'm confused...I thought it worked better with the new super tips...either that or I was confused between the old and the new this whole time :P
-
Date: Sat, May 19 2012 01:37:24
ugggg there are 3 kinds of supertips heres the diffrence version 1 (the one you want to use) which are the old ones with a big backplug. the back plug goes in and not round like v2 v2 new super tips that are no diffrent just you cant use the cap to cut a bar off of it to make cob ect ect with ROUND backplugs v3 the ones that look like v1 but are completely, the whole marker is SMALLER where you can fit a comssa cap without anything at all. should fit perfectly and body is smaller than v1 not only that but the back plug is super tiny here tou could barely pull it off maybe i will do some example vid soon sick and tired of people using v3 supertips oh and i prefer buster since i use the caps to hit a nice spot to bust

Since it says that he lives in the US, he'll probably go for the free shipping over $25 option. You should get a waterfall mod with an extra (or two) Reynolds 094 caps just in case they crack. If you have experience in modding, it would be better if you bought the parts for a waterfall and made it yourself (get the rubbed super pirat if you don't have acetone).

hey guys. if any of you remember way back when i asked what mod i should get you guys recomended a waterfall i got just that. immiadiately when i got it i felt that it was pretty light and i knew that i should've gotten something heavier. so now after like a year of spinning should i get a buster or something heavier then a waterfall but lighter than a buster. although i really do want a buster now more than before. Thanks for any responses

no if u want weight get kt or a modrod body with modrod gips on body then shove dr grip tips in there
-
Date: Mon, Jun 11 2012 22:32:40
And if you want to make it slightly lighter you could cut the grips a little smaller like on peem's buster. I think on the wiki it said like 1.5/4 of the grip instead of 1/2
-
Date: Mon, Jun 11 2012 23:30:43
well... i would suggest not getting a buster, but thats from past experience. i bought a buster after about 1.5 years of spinning and i liked it at the time but i really dont like it anymore. i realized that i enjoy the weighting of a waterfall much more and it really works better with my style. my suggestion is an ivabra mod or dr kt. i suppose its all up to you though. it would be easier if you could go test mods to see which ones you like before you bought them. (maybe penwish should get on that)
-
Date: Mon, Jun 11 2012 23:39:02
Actually buster is awesome for hard tricks such as rare 1.5 baks combinations or fingerless and continuous or air tricks in general.. so if you like it and you think your style fits buster's (like peem wt09, josh_pr, i.suk, etc..) just get it ;D

Really it's mostly up to you to decide because they are the same thing... But here's a quick comparison you might already know Original dr kt costs $1 more than golden diamond IMO Golden diamond looks better than the original + it has gold dr grip tips and a cool outsert. However I'm not too sure about the outsert because it might peel off or whatever, but I would choose the golden diamond mainly because of outsert and tips. Anyway, you can always take off te outsert if you don't like it... Sorry for long post :p -

Not sure bout 1st line as I never tried turndont. Coulomb is just a standard g3 mod, good weight distribution and is HGG gripped. its heavier than key3 thou, since key3 is like the lighter side of 14g, while coulomb is at the heavier side of 14g. Frog~

Please post in quick modifications thread. Also kearing is completely different pen class. unless you heavily mod it with two backplug system ala ck mod commsas will not fit on it without modification. Also the feel comes with the kearing after it has been rubbed down. Before rubbage it feels like a semi ordinary pen

For Impact MX's, they spin better with a SUNBURST cap and ONLY 3 washers. You may have to shove a 2 section sailor or something in the cap, though, since 4 washers is too many. You can also try a bigger screw. This spins so smoothly/softly compared to the original. So awesome it could be one of my daily carries. The original is still nice, though. :thumb: edit: although mine had a spoko, it doesn't matter what grip you have. (I tested it)

Someone sent me Old Namae CAPS instead of the whole pen. I have asked for the bodies and he claims they're useless (thus he does not have any).

If the trade did indeed asks for old namaes, barrels should be included then. It's not up to the seller to decide if it's useless or not. But pirats does spin better than namaes, but that's IMO only. Frog~

Hi all! I'm new at pen spinning and i want to buy pen mod. Could you help me? To facilitate you helping me, i can say that i already do a smooth fingerpass, because i played piano for 6 years, and i have great agility on my fingers. So, before i knew that pen spinning existed, i already did fingerpass. After i discovered this "hobby" i started learning a few tricks, like thumb around, sonic, and easy tricks... Now, i want to buy a modded pen at penwish.com. So, what pen sould i buy? and... are there other sites where i can buy modded pens? Thank you for your attention P.S.: sorry for my english, it could be better :(

Those are good choices however since you're a beginner you might want to try pens that are more similarly weighted to each other. The MX is much lighter than the Pixels Comssa. Instead of the Pixels Comssa, get a metal Comssa OR instead of the RSVP MX get a heavier SC mod such as a Seven G3 Mod or Coulomb or Ayatori G3. Even possibly a Minwoo SC Mod. Of course keeping in mind your budget. -

A nice double sided mod would be the Waterfall Mod.

I got a Buster CYL from Penwish yesterday, and my friens were all "No! don't get a Buster yet!". Why do many people dislike the Buster? I mean, isn't more weight better?
-
Date: Sat, Sep 15 2012 09:20:25
Almost everyone is against Buster because of its weight and length. Its very heavy compared to other mods and also very long. People think beginners cant use these heavy mods because 'they would ruin your style' and such. But there isn't really reason to not use it. Unless you dont like it or have small hands.
-
Date: Sat, Sep 15 2012 10:00:52
IMO, it still depends on your preference. Whether you like heavier or lighter mods, it's up to you. I think the reason why people dislike buster for beginners is that you will have a hard time to switch to lighter mods than using lighter mods then switch to heavier mods and some says that using lighter mods will improve smoothness. For me, I don’t dislike heavy mods, it’s just that I can’t use them for too long compare to light mods thus more time for practice :)
-
Date: Sat, Sep 15 2012 10:08:11
Don't listen to 'Beginners must use light mods' crap. Spin whatever you want. Spin a straw if you want. Spin a ruler if you want lol. It's all about what you feel what is best for you.

How would it "ruin your style"? Are there tricks you can't do with a Buster? -

So I just started spinning a couple days go and I have learned all the fundamental tricks on an unsharpened #2 pencil and I really liked it, but as the title suggests I was wondering if there are any good pencil mods that are easy to do with little parts (I live in a hotel and I don't have many resources and I'm thinking about also making a BICtory) If you could give me some suggestions and maybe some pros cons that would be so helpful! Thank you my fellow spinners(: Also, I use it so much the eraser has worn almost all the way done:/ not that it's a major issue I just don't like it. Suggestions to stop that?

Hello all, new here. Anyway, I'm fairly new to penspinning, and I looked at the Starter's Guide to Pen Mods. I'm interested in making a Rushon Comssa, because I have fairly large hands (~23 cm). I also want something that's good for beginners. However, I haven't been able to find any guides/tutorials on making one. If anyone can help me out with a link or some info, that would be great. If you have a different suggestion for a beginner mod, double capped, for large hands, I'd welcome that too. Thanks!

So I've been pen spinning for a few months now and I'm looking for a new pen that is not too heavy and is good for the long run. I've been looking into the waterfall mod, but can anyone out there give some recommendations? I'm using a personal Bictory mod atm and can someone give me any ideas on a pen for medium-sized hands (somewhere around 19cm or less)? Thanks for any information if given!
-
Date: Wed, Nov 28 2012 21:30:22
going from any mod from bictory is going to seem pretty darn heavy. even though waterfall isn't that heavy by today's standards it will bee heavy if you are using bictory
-
Date: Wed, Nov 28 2012 22:02:14
I would personally recommend a RSVP MX, MSXA(if you don't like the unbalance of the MX), or a metallic comssa.

Hey invalid~! First of all. :welcome2: to UPSB. Well the differences are really in what you like. I remember when i got my first waterfall and Buster. I felt invincible. The differences between a waterfall and the buster are really the weight and the type of spinner you are, If you are full on about power doing busts like 20 + than a is for you. However in personal experience and alot of people will agree, a waterfall mod is great enough for a all around spinner. The waterfall mod has a great body feel and great length and momentum to give you style, difficulty and enough power. So imo its a no brainer, the waterfall mod is one of the most popular mods for a reason. Its a great mod. I suggest you use a waterfall mod. Don't forget. Its up to you in the end. If you are going to get a buster than get it after you get a waterfall. Hope this helps. - Tommy.

Wow thanks for the fast and awesome reply! :D I shall have to pick up some 094 caps from penwish and make a waterfall, then. Now another question! After looking on penwish, I found that Dr Grip grips and Airfit grips look quite a bit similar, although the Dr Grips are around 4x more in cost... Is there a difference? Are they heavier? Do they have a more desirable texture or something? Or is it simply inflation due to the popularity with them? Thanks!
-
Date: Thu, Jan 10 2013 08:38:52
Dr grip grips aren't that much for how good they are. Airfit grips are very common, get dusty INSIDE and feel hard and terrible. Dr grip mechanical pencil has won awards for ergonomics, it's the best grip. You CAN sub it with clear tornado but it is not as good. Using the buster before the waterfall won't ruin anything, it's up to you. I started with extremely heavy mods myself (Minwoo, menowa busters, VGG emboss replica, 24-25cm personal busters)

Heres one tip, if you a are going to use a superpirat or comssa body make sure you empty out the ink, it will make it spin a lot nicer

I have tons of Comssas lying around, but I'd like to do the mod properly if there's actually a noticeably difference. Thanks again for all the info, guys!

You look like you're entering 'intermediate spinner territory', but those categories don't really exist. You can get a buster whenever you want, it makes no difference to your spinning skill.

Everyone knows the RSVP MX, or the Dr. KT or the Buster CYL. But how bout some of the less known ones? Provide some pics too! Personally, I think the CX is pretty underrated. It's simple, highly customizable, and pretty balanced. The only downside is the weight.

Date: Tue, Oct 1 2013 20:40:58
Rsvp mx spins alot better than cx. You will find that when you progress through pen spinning that the MX is a much superior mod.

I want to buy one of them but unsure. What are the differences? I'm planning to get a new pen from pen wish because I can't stand how bad my bictory is. Even though I'm beginner I sorta hate the 1 cap and double cap pens in the beginning. My friend let me try his commssa or something such like that name. Which one is better? My hands are middle sized btw.
-
Date: Thu, Oct 17 2013 20:52:30
It's a matter of preference. Which do you like better? When a spinner finds a "Dream mod" in term of spinning he usually sticks with it. A buster CYL is for advanced spinners, so if that is you then by all means go ahead, but don't spin heavy mods if you are a beginner, this is an established fact. You should get a MX or RSVP MX by Kam. This is a prestigious mod, that many people have. I think in your case this is perfect for you. It is single sided, and single capped. The metallic Comssa is also pretty decent, but again it is preference. I suggest you spin a MX, as it builds style, which not many noobs have or develop in the beginning. You can also try a ballsign mod. If you need any of these mods, Penwish is the way to go. But if you want cheaper. Regards Zen

I'm a beginner and all I can do right now is the charge and the thumbaround. Thumbaround I learned using a really light cheap BIC mechanical pencil, but for the sonic I finally learned it by using the RSVP MX. However when I try it on a lighter pencil it just flings out of my hand. So is the RSVP MX considered heavy or just moderate? Should I stick with it or choose a lighter pen? Thanks in advance

No it is not a heavy mod. In fact this is one of the lighter mods. The reason you cannot do the sonic on a normal pen is simply because your fingers have not mastered the sonic trick yet. Practise it with everything, once you achieve this I believe then you have mastered it, although some have different views on mastery. Anyway, please refrain from creating a thread, just for a question. Uh, @Zkhan sorry can one of you move this? Stay safe, Don't do dope Regards Zen -

Try the KT before you buy it. If the KT is too heavy, get a lighter pen (Waterfall mod, a G3 mod, emboss mod, MX variations, etc.) If the KT is too light, get a heavier pen (not many heavier pens than a KT, a macquim mod is one). If the KT is just right, then get it. Also, it's crucial to do research on a pen mod before you obtain it, just so you have an idea of what you're getting yourself into. -

Oh, I'm assuming you don't know that friend in real life. Deciding on your first pen mod is very complicated since it's ultimately a gambol. You choose a pen, buy it, then spin it. This goes 1 of 2 ways: you either live happily ever after with that pen or the pen isn't really your speed and your money is completely wasted on a pen that's not right for you. I would recommend getting a KT and a Waterfall mod, both are very well-known and popular mods with differing weights. By doing this, you have 2 different weight options: the KT or the Waterfall mod, both have notable weight differences, to see which weight is right for you. You could even throw in more pens with varying weights to try out (10 grams, 15 grams, 18 grams, 20 grams, etc). If you don't really have the money for numerous pen mods then you could just take a gambol by getting the pen that sounds the best to you and assume it will serve you well. -

-
Date: Tue, Dec 17 2013 00:16:27
Its really personal preference, but try not to go for for something too heavy, as that might put a lot of strain on your hand and may hurt it. You could try spinning an RSVP MX if you are a beginner. A metallic comssa is also nice if you prefer prefer balanced mods.
-
Date: Tue, Dec 17 2013 03:46:52
the zhigao is a pen manufacturaed for spinning. ive never owned one, but i dont really perfer to spin pre-manufactured spinning pens. they lack customizability TT_TT... If you are a beginner, i would recommend making your own pen mods. that way, it would be easier to play around with the length and weight however you like. try looking through the SOYP thread for a simple-ish pen you like the look of and try making it yourself. just my 2 cents: the length and weight of a pen you make yourself doesnt matter, it always feels better to spin a pen you spent time on and made yourself rather then a premade mod or manufactured pen. xD

Zhigao v11 is basically just something like a buster. Its not recommended for beginners. To start, you can order MX or metallic comssa from Penwish. Or you can make ur own random mods. But just make sure they arent too heavy. Heavy pens dont suit beginners like the both of us. -

Hey I had some questions about what mods I should buy and the ones that I have asked for for Christmas lol. What I had asked for (I definitely don't expect to get them all lol): Waterfall (mine broke) Buster CYL MinWoo mod HC MX Seven Mod RSVP parts Now I'm pretty sure that I'll get money and such from other relatives and my parents, so here are some mods that I'm questionable about. Yelo Mod: I like the look, but I don't know if it will be too heavy. You noticed that I have a buster on my list as I want to try something with more momentum, but I don't think I would like heavy mods. A Good G3 Mod or SC mod?: I don't know what would be a good G3 mod to buy. Also, I want a good Mechanical pencil mod or writable mod, I spin every minute in school, and I would like something that spins well and can write. Anything else that anyone wants to suggest to me? What I like in pens: Good Momentum A length of 20 cm or more (hands are 19.6cm) Customability Soft Plastic Challenging/Semi-Challenging to Mod Honestly, I'm just starting to perform longer combos, so I'm definitely not a experienced spinner at all, I just really like creating and spinning different pen mods. Thanks so much! :beer:

@LifeIsGood Don't suggest getting the heavier mods yet, but you can try them if you would like. Yelo mod feels like a slipperier and longer waterfall. Seven mod is a good SC mod. You can try the Ajisai SC as well and Cyan G3. Maybe product sc. s777 mx too, might be too short for you. For DC mods on penwish I recommend Tornado/Acid DNA tornado Black Mod Namemory CK mod its a little heavy Now for mods you can make with parts from penwish Mesi G3 Sytri G3 G2 CTE Vortex. A variation of the stuhl mod. Signo/Gripmatic tips Variation of ck mod (Comssa body/caps, gripmatic/signo tips and dr grip grip)

Hi, I recently put an order for SpinSticks from pendolsa and I would like to inquire about a couple questions. I would like to know if anyone tried them? How did the body feel? Is there enough momentum like VGG mod? Is the weight distribution on the ends or is it something like spinZ pens. and if anyone would recommend spin sticks. Thank you. ~Aras

I'm looking to get a new pen but not sure what pen to get... I don't even have an idea what to get. I've spun a dr kt (now it's all banged up) and some type of buster with weird tips that are pretty heavy (not sure exactly what it's called but it was $7 and I've been spinning it since fall of 2013). Like I said, I have no idea what to get. Waterfall seems good, dr kt or bonkura kt sounds good, flying panda... I need some input from the community. What are your favorite mods to spin? I'd be considered an intermediate spinner. So I'm looking for something to help me step up and learn more advanced tricks. What will be best for learning and becoming a better spinner?

Hey Guys, I've been spinning for a few months now with a pencil I weighted down a tiny bit on the ends. I want to buy a proper Pen Mod now, and am thinking of buying the Metal Comssa w/ hoops off of Penwish. My hand are 17cm, do you think that this own mod would be a good "fit" for my hands? Apologies if this should be posted in another sub-forum, But since my question was related to Pen Mods, I thought it might go here.

There are any threads like this I think but the Metal Comssa is a nice option to try out better pen spinning. It is cheap and good quality. It might limit you in the future and you will probably want a heavier pen (although people use RSVP mxs) As for hand size, i think you will find it likable. May take some time to get comfortable spinning something longer that a pencil. My hands are 17.5 cm and I use the yelo mod which is about 21 ish cm

I like the s777 mx. Great cheap and comes in many colors. It will be kinda hard to get since you like in america. The wiki has some single sided mods that are variation of the rsvp mx. Most single sided pens are back heavy but some are COP=COG (Center of pen = Center of gravity). Those mods usually feel somewhat close to a double sided mod. My favorite single-sided mod is the key 3 mod or the mesi g3 mod. -

s777mx. you should also consider the g3 cyl. it has medium weight and spins quite well, roughly the same as the key3 and is great for intermediate level spinners. Key3 might break if you drop it directly on the tip. i think you can buy all the parts on penwish and should get you to the $26 free shipping point -

super sick mod actually. the metal barrel is a little goofy at first, especially if youre used to flexy plastic, but the length and weight is perf. its a tiny bit lighter than the waterfall iirc, but if youre tryna save money go for it. PW's grip cuts are also like impossibly perfect, so it looks way nice spinning with the stripes.

You already asked this i believe. In any case, no you do not have to keep replacing the Teflon tape. Even if you did have to you should consider investing in some. It is an inexpensive tool that all households and modders should have. -

So, hey guys, I've been spinning personal mods all my life (except for the brief period of time when i own an RSVP MX, took it apart to make an F-301 tipped MX). For some odd reason, i feel the MX had a little too much momentum for my taste and even with the HGG tip, the MX is still my heaviest mod (i have like 8). Now with the F-301 tip, it feels more balanced, but it still has too much momentum for my taste (or rather the extra weight i have to drag around when im spinning pen, the momentum that i dont need) I want to know if you guys spin light mods better than heavy mods or am i the weird one. I also want to know what a buster feels like... also, do you guys prefer hard barrels like the RSVP barrel or softer ones like the comssa and the supertip barrel? just want your opinion guys, thanks!

It can't go over that, it took a long time of negotiating to secure that price :P Can anyone recommend pen mods for me (on penwish) that are under 10 dollars? I'm currently thinking of the Tornado mod or Metal SG Comssa, but I'm open to opinions and stuff. Currently, I'm spinning Zhigao Angle Knight (V. 11), but it's slightly too heavy for me. I guess around 15-16 grams will be a nice weight, and anything under 19 cm is probably too short for me :P Thanks, and sorry if I put this in the wrong section; this is my first thread.

@kchspinna16 I find that soft barrels just feel good on the fingers. Especially something like miffy body. Also about your conundrum. I find that the lighter it is the better i can spin it. It is better to be versatile. I can spin both light and heavy mods equally well, while my friends can only spin heavy double signo tipped mods. I can spin pencils to a decent degree. In turns of momentum you might want to "tip stack" hggs to get the desired momentum you want. Try modding the MMX http://www.upsb.info/wiki/index.php?title=Momentum_MX NXMMT http://www.upsb.info/wiki/index.php?title=RSVP_NX_MMT These are longer and have more momentum. If you have a g2 available these might be ideal for you

*Edited lol If you are talking about the emboss mod, yes it can write but it is a marker. There are no grips but yeah you should get a mod that has a grip It affects how well or how easily you can preform wipers. It also feels good on the fingers. If you are talking about MY pictures, the ones i posted then it is the same thing. It CAN write but it would be easier to do wipers on a pen with a grip. If you want a grip i suggest go with the RSVP MX which was the original one. The MMX is just a extension. -

Save up and buy a waterfall mod. It'll be worth it, the lenght and the weight plus the grips are allmost exactly what you're looking for. I'd recommend that you specify in your order aswell that he cuts them so they cover the whole part of the raynolds caps that are octagnoal/pentagnoal, whatever it's called. If you absolutly can't afford that I'd recommend the rsvp mx that zen suggested for a single sided and the metal comssa as a double sided. Good luck on your choice and I hope you'll like whichever mod you decide to buy. /x~~

Hello fellow pen spinners. I have been spinning this ghetto RSVP that I made myself. Instead of it being like an PSVP MX and having the grip and signo tip or whatever on the one side i just used another RSVP cap and managed to balance the weight quite well. But to be honest I am frankly getting sick of spinning it because I dropped it a few times and one of the caps now has a large crack in it and I had to tape it. Long story short : sick of my home made mod; looking for a new one to take its place, I will buy it from penwish. I can't decide between the Flying Panda Mod or the Waterfall Comssa... I saw a video by SuperVValrus saying that the Flying Panda is the best intermediate mod. What do you guys think? Which one should I buy? I would just buy both but I'm poor af. Thanks - Aryah

i disagree about flying panda being the best. i suggest original waterfall, but if you want a longer mod go for waterfall comssa. the waterfall usually stays together ok if you put some teflon tape underneath the cap, but i suggest purchasing extra reynolds 094 caps with it since they tend to break easily. (also people might be making fun of you because you are making a few common "noobie" mistakes with your post...)

Go with the original waterfall or the Comssa one. Either one is fine though. And this "rant" really pissed me off. First of all you ARE making "noobie" mistakes and it is your job to acknowledge that. You are triple posting for absolutely no reason. You are new so it is alright. Second no one was actually attacking you for being a new member. Third who are you talking about when you say "stuck-up pro"? Like i said no one here is "stuck-up" and for your information, the "pros" have a lot of influential power on this board. So people DO care what the pros think. I digress. And finally Fourth, "I feel segregated because of my skill level like a black man." WOW. This seems really racist for some reason. For your information, black people are no longer segregated from society. In fact make up a large part of the majority of the US. The analogy here is weak. You may feel segregated but there are a lot of other spinners that are new. Now i AM NO PRO. But do not start DISSING on the pros. They have been there for us time and time again.

hi, well first of all, ask these kind of questions in the shoutbox, PM a member or search for a thread http://forum.upsb.info/showthread.php?t=13055&page=17 Anyways, answering your question, I would recommend an RSVP MX, really good mod for beginers and even advanced. The metal comssa is pretty good as well, although I would probably hold off getting a waterfall for later when you're more experienced, you don't really need a mod like a waterfall for learning regular tricks. An MX is a good pen and IMO it kinda teaches you to have more control over the pen. Hope I could help, Have fun :)

Hey Guys, I know that there are already a few threads on this topic, but I've looked through them all and none of them are quite my situation. I know that by reading them the Buster CYL is not a good pen to use when you start spinning because of it's weight and if you rely too heavily on the weight to master your basic tricks, then who knows what you'll need to master the more advanced tricks. But, I've been spinning for a while now and have already mastered the 4 fundemental tricks + fingerless thumbaround, reverse fingerless thumbaround, single/double/triple infinity, shadow, figure 8 and double thumbaround. I don't consider myself to be all that much of a beginner, even though I've only been spinning for about 1.5 weeks... My friends are really good spinners and have given me great advice and I've learnt all these tricks on my BICtory and I'm capable of doing them on other better pens such as Waterfall and RSVP. The reason why I want this Buster CYL so bad is because they started doing small competitions against each other just to see who of them is the best. I wanted to compete with them, but by their rules you have to use your own pen if you wanted to challenge someone and my BICtory is too light for spinning fast and doing big combos. I've already ordered my Buster CYL from pw and it will take about 3 weeks to get here. My thinking is that if I've already mastered all those tricks in 1.5 weeks, imagine what another 3 weeks will allow me to do. So by the time it gets here, I believe that I definitely won't be a beginner. I just want to know what everyone else's view is on this. I also ordered a Comssa 153 Retractable along with my Buster CYL, so if the package does come and I decide not to use my buster for a while, then I can just use that... Thanks, Hamilation

I wouod say stick with the bictory. Bictory is a very hard pen to spin, but if you can spin that you can spin anything. But since you bought the buster there is nothing to be done. Other people will tell you that the buster cyl is a good mod and that the mod you spin at the beginning does not matter. Do not take their advice Hell you don't even have to take mine, just spin what you think is best. Keep in mind that in the future you may be paying metaphorically speaking. Here is the advice I give myself, if you can't spin a pen mod and then a regular pen, you are not really pen spinning. I can spin pencils if I want, but I can also spin waterfalls. The best mod I think is the rsvp mx. Great mod. The very first pen mod .

Hey Zen, Thanks for the advice. I won't actually be learning any of the tricks on the Buster CYL, it's just there for me to use during competitions and showing off, I'll be spending about 80% of my time either on the Comssa 153 Retractable or on my BICtory. I do know that heavy pens aren't all that good for beginners, I've seen the effect of that on one of my friends, which is why I'm going to continue using my BICtory for the most part. I've tried spinning a pencil, but my favourite tricks are wiper tricks which are a bit hard :P Thanks, Hamilation

Hey Sekai, I do know that the really heavy pens aren't good for beginners. It's better for a beginner to start off with a lighter pen and learn to master all the of the fundemental tricks on that and then move onto a heavier pen. My friend started off spinning a Vic Got Game mod and he mastered all the essential mods on that. But the consequences are that he used to get cramps and bad pains in his hands because of its weight and he couldn't move down onto lighter pens. He couldn't spin waterfall, flying panda, emboss, bictory or rsvp mx at all because he was so reliant on the weight of the pen to carry itself through the tricks. He then bought a waterfall and it took him ages for him to adjust to the lighter pen. He now can spin just about any pen no matter the weight, but it took him a lot of effort...

I wanted to compete with them, but by their rules you have to use your own pen if you wanted to challenge someone and my BICtory is too light for spinning fast and doing big combos. I've already ordered my Buster CYL from pw and it will take about 3 weeks to get here. My thinking is that if I've already mastered all those tricks in 1.5 weeks, imagine what another 3 weeks will allow me to do. So by the time it gets here, I believe that I definitely won't be a beginner. I just want to know what everyone else's view is on this. I also ordered a Comssa 153 Retractable along with my Buster CYL, so if the package does come and I decide not to use my buster for a while, then I can just use that... Thanks, Hamilation
No one can judge whether a pen will be good or not for you lol. That's like asking someone if they like a certain type of food. They can tell you what THEY think about it but ultimately it's your opinion that counts because you're the one eating the food/spinning the pen. It's very much so personal preference. If you haven't already, you can ask your friends to try out their busters and if you like how it spins, by all means go for it. Edit: If you do have pains or medical issues with spinning a heavier pen then obviously slow down and practice less or practice with a lighter pen. If the pain persists with the heavy pen stop altogether and rest for a few days and then go back and see if its still there. It may not be the pen itself but the amount of spinning you're doing that is hurting you. -

@Hamilation I recommend just spinning a heavy mod as a beginner. I've seen far too many beginners stubbornly only spin light mods just because a few people on these forums recommended it, only to get discouraged at how slowly they are learning compared to other beginners who spin heavy mods and then quit. The reason why heavy mods for beginners were frowned upon at one point was because beginners often get carried away with how much easier heavier mods make their learning process of supposedly 'difficult' tricks/linkages that they go on a learning spree of trendy world class linkages and don't bother mastering easier tricks/linkages, causing their spinning to become unbalanced. But that really isn't the fault of the mod, it's more the fault of the spinner for not being disciplined enough to sit down and practice their fundamentals more. As for the whole 'it's difficult to transition from a heavy mod to light mod' thing, that's true, but it's part of the learning process of ps anyways. People who started with light mods struggled no less trying to spin their light mods. You're a beginner so of course you'll struggle. And it's not like the transition from a light mod to a heavy mod is automatic either. People who are used to light pens do have difficulty controlling the momentum of heavier mods usually, without practice. So neither transition is easier than the other.

Can anyone recommend any and all pens that would be good for intermediate spinners?
