    w00t [video=youtube;79P1cZsYRao]http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=79P1cZsYRao[/video] My final video for now. I won't be uploading videos for a while since I want to practice more in order to produce much better content than I do now. So this is a temporary good-bye.

    Practicing is no reason to stop filming.

    I know, but I've gotten a negative comment or two (and many dislikes) on my videos and for that reason I feel that I started my youtube channel too early and should improve more until my videos are really worth supporting. I've only been spinning for about a year and a half now.

    Negative comments as in constructive or as in stupid trolls? Either way it doesn't matter, it's nice to be able to look at famous spinners now and look back at their old videos and see how they've improved.

    Constructive I guess, but the dislikes burn. Anyways, I've made enough noobish videos for now so that people can compare now to the future.

    It's foolish to stop filming since that's the way you lose interest in pen spinning. Don't film for people watching your videos, film for yourself because you want to show that you've improved. You shouldn't care about dislikes at all, every spinner who has a youtube account at least has some dislikes. If you like spinning and you want to show you're new tricks or improvement, then why let random trolls make you unhappy when you're proud of what you've done? Anyhow, you can still film a random FS once in a while, there's no point to stop filming simply because you're practicing.

    That is true.....that's exactly what I said when I first made the channel... hmm. Maybe I should make videos less frequently but focus on their quality. This video has to be one of the best I ever made, and it took hours of practicing to make it, but I am proud of it.

    Hmm, try looking at your combos and seeing how it can be improved Eg smoothness and links could certainly be improved! :) You really should invest in a mod as well

    Persist wants to spin a Dr Grip as his main pen, iirc his status update said something about getting inspired by Ease.

    Yup, big fan of and inspired by Ease and a couple other skilled Dr. GRIP spinners as well.
