    Me my self , At least 2-4 hours a day. More if I can, and if I don't have a lot of time. Then I try to get in 20 mins here, 35min there! So what's a good rule of thumb for a noon like me?

    I practice like 10 minutes a day, plus all the mindless tricks I sometimes do while on the computer or while thinking. I used to practice a little bit more several years ago.

    I think I practise incidentally Tricks while an combo or learn a linking. But sometimes I practise different tricks or linkings: perhaps Hai tua after that then Twisted Sonic Multiple Bust or other cool Tricks. In my opinion, it's bad when you always do the same trick,therefore you can not anymore.

    Hmm... on weekends I would pick up a pen now and again so I'd say for a total weekend around 1 hourish.

    Well now that I'm home it's going to be a whole lot more! I got all the fundamentals down and a few of the harder tricks , so now it's combos time! Yay I haven't had Internet for a while and now that I'm back! It's f-ing on!!!

    Almost everyday, if I can. I just grab my guitar and try to improve finger dexterity and try to make my fingers move faster. But I don't practice penspinning at all, if that's what you're asking.

    Only when I'm in the right mood. Usually.. an hour a day now, maybe more or less.

    I usually practice throughout the school day during classes. That amounts up to about 4 hours (i don't practice during lunch, nutrition, or when the teacher's giving important info) Then at home, I'd say about an hour. EDIT: holy crap. I didn't notice the bump I just did. Whoops. Sorry people :unsure:

    1/4 to 1 1/2 hours a day, depending on if i feel like working on anything in particular

    I always freestyle(almost) but real practice and training should be about 30 mins and it's not everyday.

    If you're talking about how long is our practice session, then mine is only like 15 mins. I take PSing seriously there. But if you're talking about how long in a day we pen spin, then I pretty much do it when I have a mod with me. Like 12 hours? lol

    For a day, How long should you practice pen spinning and How long should you study for school...for short how can you balance your time in practicing pen spinning and studying.

    There already a thread made for this

    Date: Tue, Nov 16 2010 03:23:43

    and the thread title is horrible edit: thread title changed from "pen spinning" title gives some indication of what the thread is about... being on a PS forum and all

    I always spin when i am watching TV, so just practice whenever you watch TV

    Just practice as you're studying. You can spin when you're reading, you have a pen/pencil when you're doing practice problems, it's all good. It's like two birds with one stone.

    I don't really have time to pen spin since I do Photoshop graphics and yoyo as well lol :)
