General Discussion / It would probably be a good idea for someone to delete this.

    There should be a day where a bunch of spinners from anywhere just go out to the most populated area they know and spin as much as possible. You're probably gonna say "shit thread" But I think it's a good idea and we should set a date for it. [FONT="Arial"][SIZE="6"][COLOR="red"]TRY TO SPREAD THIS AROUND AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT] We'll probably just be discussing the date for a while. It'll probably be a good idea if more spinners know about it. Then we might set the date. It would also probably be a good idea to tell some people on other communities too. I think I would be a better idea to do this on a weekend.

    Agreed :D! We did this for contact juggling and it was a lot of fun. Maybe film peoples reactions or what you did and come back and share experiences. /in.

    Maybe you could find someone who is in your area to spin with you. If there isn't, just spin, find a friend and walk around. Even if they're not a spinner.

    Why not do this September 13th? In honour of Bonkura? Could give you something to talk about too :shrug:.

    Good idea... but I want more people to know about it before we actually do it. It would really be cool though.....

    actually,if ALL of us adhere to this, we could be on the news

    Imagine a non-spinner walking around their town seeing pen spinners every 20 minutes.

    Its not a meet up, its just when you go to a local hotspot (like a mall) and spin to attract attention and get reactions from non spinners, and maybe even film some reactions :)

    It would be a good idea to also see if you guys could spread this around on other pen spinning communities too.

    I'm in. I agree with @shoeman6, spinning on September 13th in honor of Bonkura. Too bad I lost my Bonkura KT. I think I'll just sit down and start spinning....like the whole day, in school and on the park, during dinner. :P

    Same, wouldnt hurt to go up to some people, maybe have a friend help out and ask them if they've ever heard of pen spinning, introduce them etc. Might get a lot of weird looks/ ignores but it should be fun/interesting experience at least. I'm in for it :)!

    If you were to spin in public, think this: It I were a non-spinner, what trick would be really impressive? For me, It would be fingerpasses and double charges. Because I can do those smoothly and quickly.

    It would also be a good idea to do it on a weekend. That's when most people are outside.

    So has anyone decided on a set time to do this?

    We have to let more people in on the discussion.

    If we let more people know, We'll just figure out which weekend people would be out....
