    Well I have quite a bad hand My fingers (especially the 3 first fingers) are so curved that they make my "presentation" so bad. They don't affect my spinning, but they're always making me feel embarassed Well you see, the fingers "rise" while I think they have to be straight (sorry for my explanation) Here's my pic [SPOILER=Mine] [/SPOILER] The index bends at the second "(I don't know how to name it)" and "rise" at the first "..." The middle is quite straight but also "rises" at the first "..." And so does my ring ... =.=" So ugly =.=" My friend's hand (He spins better than me) [SPOILER=Friend] [/SPOILER] His fingers don't "rise" up like me, and they seem to be better than mine =.=" - - - - - - - - - - - - - Even my left hand is just ugly as my right one =.=" So...is there any suggestion for ... well, bettering my fingers ? Cuz I think they're tooooooooooo ugly =.=" And I hate them =.=" - - - - - - - - - - - - - Sorry for my bad English, again =.="

    Spin faster so they don't look at your hand.

    Alvaris' hand is something like that, if you lurk around. I don't think it looks bad. Even mine bends to this degree sometimes. Do you have hitchhikers' thumb?

    grow long nails and nobody will look at your ugly fingers anymore.

    So ... there's no way to straighten them ? If it's true, so I think I'll have to live with it =.=" And yeah, I'm trying to grow my nails so that they can make up for my fingers =.="

    @Kari-Chan has a distinct bend in the first joint from the knuckle. It actually looks nice with her spinning and it has became her style. I like her style IMHO.

    got a bending on the first joint from the knuckle if i put some tension in my fingers, and when I put full tension they bend abnormally, its hilarious to freak people out with it xD [spoiler=like this] [/spoiler]

    Double jointed maybe?

    what is double jointed?

  18. Olji
    Date: Mon, May 16 2011 06:29:14

    If your fingers are double jointed it means that you can move your fingers more than normal

    Huh ... I don't think my fingers are .... Who in our board has "double jointed" fingers anyway?

    "Ugly" fingers is a relative term. There's no real way of defining whose fingers look nice, and whose look ugly. I think the best way to deal with this problem is to develop a spinning style that will look best with your fingers, regardless of how they look.

    Doesn't that help for tricks like palmspins and inverse shadows?

    Honestly I wouldn't worry about that, they look fine to me! People tend to be really critical of themselves. I'm sure nobody else notices, they'd be too busy watching the pen fly around. When I clicked the expanding thing to see the pic I expected to see really deformed weird looking fingers. Not slightly curved ones lol. Really not a big deal.

    @Nachoaddict : Why does that help ?

    Seriously? And you call that creature a friend? The only person that criticise me is my sister because she hates me lol. Just ignore those kind of people and keep practising your pen spinning because it might slow you down^^

    I agree with nacho o-o I kept having trouble with inverse shadows because my hand wasn't getting flat enough. But you can like bend it back and it'll be so easy :o

  29. Nachoaddict
    Date: Thu, May 19 2011 23:11:41

    Yeah if you can bend your fingers back, the don't obstruct the pen as much for tricks where the pen needs to spin on your hand. Sometimes I'll do a palmspin and my fingers aren't back enough so the pen gets caught between them or hits one of them.

    My fingers are even more ugly because I have eczema on it. Its when it gets really itchy, and the skin is always dry, also it doesn't go away. Sometimes when I spin while i just itched it, it hurts a lot.

    i got a twisting on the first combined from the knuckle if i put some stress in my fingers and hands, and when I put complete stress they extend extraordinarily, its very funny to addict individuals out
