    Sidespin looks cooler.

    Pretty complicated question, but I'd say PalmSpin for its variations. SideSpin isn't only that thing that you release from TF and it spins on your palm, not only that. >_>

    i think that sidespin is eisier.... though like Enkronidus said, more variations with the palmspin. votes show its half/half =D

    Based on spin alone, Palmspin. I think it looks better because its more in the center of your hand. From a linkage perspective, still Palmspin. It's easier/smoother to link it to tricks in other finger slots.

    Actually sidespins can be easily linked in the finger slots and smoothness wise that depends on the execution of the spinner itself. In general sidespins are difficult to learn but if you can master them it'll be a lot easier to come up with very cool/easy linkages with the sidespin. I LOVE SIDESPINS!!! but sad to say, not many people use this trick (excluding the tf start one thats too common). I guess it's because of the difficulty.

    i say, i like the palm spin better because u can go from palm spin to a lot of other moves

    also, palm spin is easier than side spin :)
