    [video=youtube;GWxcCG-GPss]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GWxcCG-GPss[/video] Curl wipers involve the curling of the finger to move the pen. You can perform "figure 8" like tricks with these wipers, but they are not the same as twirls created by fel2fram. These wipers do not involve any thumb movement, while twirls do involve them. Another embedded video for people to differ between these wipers. [video=youtube;5eUlxRA4Ml0]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5eUlxRA4Ml0[/video] Extra details: When I tried doing the trick TPIH, or Triangle Pass Infinite Hybrid, created by Vicgotgame, I noticed that you curled your individual fingers in to move the pen in a circular motion. So I tried in different ways how I could use this kind of movement on each finger, and finally just came up with a simple curling of the finger that does not involve any thumb movement. Twirls are actually made up of a curl, but then afterwards simultaneously, the thumb is bent down. The way Fel2Fram notates the twirls is by adding a "b" to represent a curled or bent finger. Twirl Normal ~ T.b1 > bT.1 Through the discovery of curls you can change it to this: Twirl Normal ~ Curl normal T.b1-bT.1 The naming is not important at all, just that the concept is understood. I'm not sure if Fel2Fram would prefer the name twirls as the whole bent finger wiper, or twirls representing the curls without bent fingers. For opposed twirls, it's a more confusing matter, because I don't understand the motion quite yet. @@ Which is a good reason to turn to the communtiy of pen spinners here. :D This isn't copying directly from Fel2Fram's twirls, however, because, curls can be used for a "figure 8" like trick in other linkages, as seen in the video. Correct me if I'm wrong of course ^_^

    Fel2fram mentions these already, if you look at his twirl breakdown it demonstrates how other oositions shoul be notated. He also does these all the time and so do I lol
