    For sure many of you spun in class, and most among them (us) was shouted by some of the teachers for spinning or even the teacher had your Buster :( I was thinking that how can we spin in class but not being shouted by teachers. One of the idea is spinning only in one direction, such as only horizontal that the pen is always parallel to our desks, so that it won't be so attractive. Any other ideas? Feel free to talk!

    I like your idea, except it'd limit the tricks we could do if we just spun horizontally. Good idea though =D And you could put a book or jacket over your desk so it wont be loud when/if you drop it. And never do aerials in class. NEVER.

    cant think of anything... i dont think your teacher would confiscate your rsvp mx if u spin it since it looks like a pen...

    To wotu1: Yes I always spin on a book but my teacher would mind seeing me spinning. And I mean perhaps we can develope some new tricks? (p.s. pun kan in class XP) To J74Q: So bad I love DCs and I believe there are some mods that looks more like a pen :)

    Our spinning is often so magnificient that almost all teachers cannot ignore it, can you see xD Just joking xD I often spin with 1 or 2 books below, to reduce the sound made by my Mod dropping onto the desk :) Or, spin behind someone's back, teachers cannot see you (as long as you don't move your hand too much) Also, I never spin when my teacher doesn't allow ...

    i pull my chair back a bit and spin over my lap. teachers can't see it ( i'm in the back of the classroom) and makes no noise. I sometimes do some aerials.

    Spin in each class to get a feel of who minds and who does not For the teachers who mind, take precautionaries not to get caught.

    If I make a loud noise I try to be as discrete as possible and not spin for another 30seconds. A rule of thumb, don't do aerials too obvious and it looks like you're extremely distracted. To be honest most teachers don't mind, it's just my class mates who think I have aspergers syndrome of being obsessed with pens. ^.^ Also I'm not amazing at spinning yet so people don't mind.

    Just spin in classes where your teachers dont care.

    I sometimes do it in labs, but teachers don't care much actually. I was spinning a Dr Grip yesterday, after finishing my exam, practising combos. I dropped once in a while and my teacher took notice. She walked over to my table and I thought she was going to give me a disciplinary form for my nails. Turns out she stood beside me and gawped speechlessly :rofl: I finished, looked at her and winked :D

    Why would you spin in class if your teacher doesn't like it? The attitude in this topic is already wrong in the first place. What you guys are doing here is trying to bug someone for the sake of bugging them, after letting you know that what you're doing is bothering them.

  14. kydd
    Date: Thu, May 19 2011 01:42:59

    don't try to learn new tricks, or do tricks your not sure your going to be able to catch/finish. that way other than your teacher noticing, they can't really shout you down for being a class distraction. then again, you shouldn't need a teacher to make you stop bothering the rest of the class.

    I drop my pen all the time. I only spin when the teacher isn't talking and when i have a book for my pen to land on. (but it usually drops to the ground) But there was this incident where my English teacher saw me spinning while i was reading something she told me to stop because it was disrespectful...to who?

  16. n3wby
    Date: Thu, May 19 2011 02:35:45

    be smart and your teacher won't mind that much. unless it (and usually will) distract others. lol. otherwise, find other spinners and make a mob at lunch.

    Use an RSVP and don't drop it. Problem solved.

    Date: Thu, May 19 2011 03:29:53

    i just push my chair back a bit and spin in my lap. if i ever drop the pen on the floor and it makes a noise, i just don't move at all and wait a while and pick it up so the teacher doesn't know it's me but sometimes the teacher gets mad cuz i'm looking down so they know i'm penspinning.

    If ur teacher cares so much and takes away ur mod, spin a mod that looks like a normal pen, not a baton If ur spinning like a MX, she can't take it away cuz it looks like a pen If its like a buster, it's basically a baton so they would take it away Best choice; spin unmodded stuff like a normal RSVP or a pencil

    well first, if your teacher doens't allow you to spin, just respect your teacher and dont spin it. I just freestyle and spin while the teacher is talking. I dont really concentrate and look at my pen. Its the other kids that my teacher hates. They like take alll their energy and concentration to do a sonic or a TA and the teacher doesn't like it when people aren't concentrating on him/her. So just freestyle and dont be too distracted with it. But in my spanish class, the teacher is weird so I legitly practice my midbak 1.5s in her class.

    i was told the same thing... senseless, i know ============================================================================================= my teachers dont care. for the most part, one of them that duznt is a complete jerk that nobody and he gave me a uniform infraction for wearing vans.... so messed. but this is what he said i was spinning, my teacher looks over, "mr bue, please put your baton away" i had to bite my tounge to keep from cracking up. here is my guess, he said 'baton' cuz he assumed, most stupidly, that if he said pen i wouldve put all my pens away and wouldnt have countinued to write. well chew on this fat for a bit, i didnt have a baton, i shouldnt have put any away. godang, i friken hate the stupid teacher...

    just don't be like my friend, constantly attempting hai tuas and cont. ext ta in spanish class with his bonkura kt or his buster.. he's always dropping it on the floor and loudly on his desk, and sometimes even flying away from him as he scrambles on the floor to get it. luckily our spanish teacher doesn't seem to be very mad with it. :D

    My maths, English and science teachers have mentioned my spinning before (just in things like "Are you guys just going to spin for the whole lesson", but in this case I was doing work :P) but I've only got told off once by my English teacher when I was practising the thumbaround in the early days and kept dropping it. Once me and my friend were even trying to do the ta really quickly with whiteboard markers before a lesson and they were flying around and he didn't really care. I have friends who put all their concentration in maths into doing the ta and they drop it all the time, I think their teacher gets really annoyed. I never try to learn new tricks in class unless I can do it more than 3 out of 4 or so times and my pens all have grips on the ends anyway so they don't make much sound. tno

    If u spin ur pen mod and the teacher comes to ur table,quickly put ur pen on ur lap or ur pencil case and take a pencil and spin it. It always work...especially in geography and math lessons as my teacher find it annoying tht me and my friends spin the pen.

    Heh my teachers dont care because i pay attention in class. its the ppl who are non-psers that are so concentrated to your psing that get the teachers mad. Im still very new to this world. im currently spinning a bictory. Putting grips that puts a bit of distance from from the barrel itself from touching the floor helps alot. it cushions the impact and makes less sound (less area touching = less sound). Erm i also have a question does anyone have any writable mods suggestions that arent a rsvp mx variation?

  29. Fail
    Date: Sun, May 29 2011 23:15:21

    Umm...A kt? But never, NEVER spin a kt/minwoo or a buster or any other mod that involves airfit or kt tips (vicgotgame) and let the tip hit the desk...especially airfits...IT'S SO LOUD.

    Date: Mon, May 30 2011 01:15:05

    Sir those are great mods but the thing is they arent writable =P

    Kt can be made writable. And same with Buster.

    i usually don't do any hardcore spinning during a lesson or when my class is really quiet i just do a TA harmonic, sonic rise, or double charge in my language arts class my teacher gives us a lot of free time to do our work i just do hardcore spinning when it doesnt matter if its loud

    LEan back and spin above your lap. So it doesnt make a sound if you drop :D

    Date: Wed, Jun 8 2011 14:39:03

    i dont think you can invent a new of of spinning for class, its either you spin so that your teacher cant see, sping behind another student etc...or you dont spin at all in class

  37. Cloud
    Date: Wed, Jun 8 2011 21:02:17

    another thing you can do is put grips over the tips. for example the waterfall, just pull the dr grip grips over the tips and it doesnt make as much noise when you drop it. if you really want to, put foam grips over the body of the pen, but that will change the mod quite a bit. @Fail i dont think a kt can really be made writable. a couple of drops and the mp tip will seal up. its too heavy and the tip dents too easily. airfits bp are much easier, considering there is a lot of more room for err. the lead in mp mods have to be kept tight otherwise they will wobble.

    @Cloud No, I've made a KT write before. Just sub the Marker ink with RSVP/Profile.

    spin unmodded, its more impressive to non-spinners if you can do it with the kinda pens they have used all their life rather then a "special" pen spin over a book or binder to cut down noise when you are still learning keep your trick repertoire to consistent tricks only Keep in mind you are in class to learn, in an ideal world, only spin if you think that class is unimportant to you. Don't spin while there is a guest speaker or something of the sort. Respect the teacher if they ask you to stop. If you are failing a lot give it a few minute break at least.
