Greetings spinners! I started spinning in high school but completely stopped in college. Unfortunately my professors weren't too keen on the "distraction". When the opportunity came up to work with the guy who invented Polar pen (the ballpoint pen and stylus made entirely of magnets), I knew it was the perfect time to make a come back. My role is the official gatekeeper of the free Polar giveaways, and I have a few units to share *insert evil laugh*. If you're up for the challenge of creating a video of tricks with Polar, a contest or other challenge, I'd love to send you a unit (worth $35.95 each), all the while I'll be re-learning from you along the way. Happy to be an official UPSB'ian. Godspeed!

According to the internet, it's "an expression of good wishes to a person." But I'm pretty sure the MythBusters could put a pen spinning speed value onto it. If I get a response, I'll post it. :S -

Ayyyy lmao. Welcome to UPSB! I actually bought a Polar pen and had it since February. I've yet to make a pen mod with it but it's absolutely fun to mess around with the magnets. xD

Hi Jacky! That is the greatest profile picture, possibly of all time :) It's really cool to hear that you got a Polar pen as part of the original Kickstarter campaign. I feel blessed that I get to work on this project. I have yet to see a pen mod video of Polar. If you're up for the challenge, I can hook you up with whatever color you don't have yet (or the same if you want the same colored magnets). Either way, keep smiling. -

Of course! I have some good friends in Switzerland :) They've never seen pen spinning before. We must change this! Ps. Where do you normally post your vids?

Dang, that's awesome. I saw the polar pen on the kickstarter and it looked sweet as hell. It's really a small world isn't it? Welcome to UPSB ^_^

Pleasure to meet the king of noobs. I hope you have business cards that say that. I've seen your videos before. Ps. According to Emilia, it's a big big world (horrible Karaoke joke!). Really appreciate the warm welcome. I have a lot to learn for you....all :)

@Ashes didn't she also say "it's not a big big deal if you leave me"? Then Blackstreet be like: "Don't leeeeeeeave!" *there are very few people here who grew up in the 90s and so barely anyone will get these references. :( mpc.

lol yes, yes they did! Blackstreet also mentioned "Play on play that" which I assume is somehow related to spinning pens. If not, it should be :)
