    New concepts only seem impractical until someone really dedicates to perfecting it. I'm sure most people probably would have thought 90% of penspinning moves were absolutely impractical before penspinning even existed.

    Forget about concepts and tricks. Just focus on your own spinning first.

    No. You are wrong. Bosco Wong promoted pen spinning. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0MfU8WVTbTA I assume you don't know who he is. So just so you know, he's a famous Hong Kong actor.

    LOL newly joined spinners 'mastering' power tricks? don't make me laugh. i am far from mastering power tricks, it would be safe to say even supawit and tony have not mastered power tricks - as long as there is some other power trick hybrid/s they can't do, no one has mastered it...maybe spinnerpeem has, but he could invent more variations etc. as for non-power spinning, snow's demonstration of using 2 hands/2 pens shows that there's still a lot which can be done in that area (i.e. even snow's R5 combo, which is insane, could be improved in terms of integration), asynch/desynch spinning is very undeveloped, as is 2p1h; use of body and environment, the 'simultaneous trick' concept etcetc, it could do on for ages... maybe you can say 1p1h spinning has 'peaked' in a way with s777 and vicgotgame to a small extent, but that isn't true either...is there a spinner who can do everything s777, vic, spinnerpeem can do with one hand and combine them effectively? no. and after that they'll have to be able to do it with something which isn't a stick. :P

    i dont think that it has peaked yet, im sure there are loads more tricks waiting to be invented, its just that no one has found them yet
