    Wow, your a fast learner to learn the fundamentals in about a week! It took me much longer, and I'm still having trouble with the charge. xD can't wait to see you around the forums!

    hi nice to meet yhu mhmm fundamentals were easy .. but reverse killed me a bit. especially the reverse thumbaround. but after 3 hrs? i kinda got it on me. xD what pen/pencil ur using. cuz IMO rsvp mx helped me get the tricks down real quick. give it a shot if u dont have one xD

    hi i gave up on the r ta for now. as for now. im just trying to perfect both my r and normal fingerpass . I just realized today that the sonic i no is just a quick fingerpass and its not the real sonic >.< fail right. lol well as of now. i have charge and r charge, r and normal fingerpass and ta. what trick/move should i focus on next?

    Well, i would say concentrate on the sonic first, cause it will open chances to learn more tricks, like sonic rise, or sonic r

    mhmm thanks thou its hard to adjust to the "sonic " now cuz of bad habits. i used to thought a quick fingerpass was a sonic >.< lol

    ohs is my sonic correct when i spin from 23 a quick charge then b4 of ending the charge, i quickly bend my middle finger a bit and the momentom of the charge ends at 12-23 . is tht the sonic r @ least close?

    The pen should end up between your index and middle finger. Before even starting to do the sonic u have to apply a bit of pressure on pen with ur middle finger and pressure from your ring finger. The pen is supposed to go over the middle finger and land in between middle and index.

    go to youtube and watch what it looks like, it looks different than a charge. I am not really sure how you switch from charge to sonic. Try to use the pressure method to do the sonic. Btw where did u get the material for rsvp mx?

    for the rsvp mx.. u can find pentel rsvp pretty much anywhere . in walmart, staples etc but for hgg .. i got mine @ dragon city by spadina.Toronto. U need the metal tip+grip from the hgg. they come in blue,red,and black and are sold at 3 bucks eash. :S expensive

    nice job :) welcome to UPSB have a pleasent time at the forums :D i got the fundamentals in around half a week and the reverses took a month since i had little control in my hands :( you should try to learn tricks like twisted sonic, double charge, and thumbaround to air and catch, you just do a thumbaround and make it go into the air when you are about to catch it

    hi everyone! this is my first post of UPSB and i think i can do thumbaround but only in 1round not 1.5, reverse thumbaround must be practice for a long time for begginers like me...
