National speed limit in the UK is 70mph. Is godspeed faster than that? I don't see it on my speed dial.

Got a better camera available if need be, so quality should not be a problem. :)

130g is pretty heavy. Would the spinner be allowed to modify the pen or does it have to be spun as it is? Because as it is it seems pretty short and the weight distribution is even which would make spinning it a lot harder. Some modders would probably be able to make some good mods out of the materials.

I wish this could happen in one place while being captured by Kuma Films. That would be epic. Either way this [B]is[/B] going to be legendary!! :) Thanks for all the messages guys.

yes! Modify, transform, it's all game. This pen is at your pen spinning creative will :) Weight wise, it is approximately 130 grams fully assembled.

i can imagine making some long 2-part mod like what rook spun before, being joined by magnets and each half spinnable by itself -

If you're up for the challenge of creating a [B]pen spinning, mod or trick video [/B]with Polar pen
As looking for the challenge, a mod, combo and a trick video are allowed. I am looking forward to see what people will come up with. I wonder if people going to take it from a different perspective. We are penspinners after all, so I expect to see a lot of ways to make the mod spinnable. In the promotion video it said it also takes up to having fun, is it allowed to continue that path? @[B]Ashes[/B]ChainBreak wrote: 130g is pretty heavy.

We should ask A13x to spin that thing. I think he is the only one with experience with ultra heavy mods. :rofl: Also: @Lost Angelus Brining in some amazing modders! -

Hear ye! I failed to mention that this challenge is not open to Canadian residents. Yes I am Canadian. Yes the Polar Pen is a Canadian invention. However, we Canadians have very particular regulations when it comes to magnets. I'm really sorry! Especially to the two epic spinners in BC who reached out.
