    slow spinning might be your style... or u can try using a lighter pen to build a speed spinning style

    Speed is overrated. Spin at a pace comfortable to you. If you really want to spin faster, however, then just spin faster. No real tips here...

    lighter mods and you also need to take sometime on making your fingers work faster. like for example mastering the passes...

    thanks for all the tips, ive been using an MSXA, and until recently ive always stuck to light mods like the metal comssa and MX. but now that i switched my speed has stayed about the same.

    Do the combos with a double capped comssa. Or if you want a faster style in general, spin a heavier mod until your finger movements are at your usual pace, then go back to your MSXA. You should have some fast spinning after that.

    When you do a trick/linkage/combo a lot(really a lot) you start to get speedy, that is just what you need to do. At least, this is what happened to me.

    Push hard. Use your waist. Grab and pull.

    do the tricks you master the most use your wrist to help your fingers to impulse for some fingerless trick you'll need some anticipation you need a mod with momentum but not too heavy big caps allows more control when fast spin also not too slippy or not too grabby body and grips... mod is really important, you have to know it perfectly i'm not fast without my fav.

    Listen to this man, also you may just be way more comfortable at a slower speed, but you can always change your spinning, know that. You're never stuck with one style.
