I have a friend who wants to learn how to pen spin but it seems that his fingers "lock up" every time he tries to do a sonic. He just keeps doing charges with his RG2T. Has anyone else ever tried to teach how to spin? Was it easy or hard?

It was quite easy for me, since they were quick learners o_o Taught someone sonic in 20 minutes and they could only do Charge with 23. Taught someone else backaround in 45 minutes and they couldn't pen spin, not even 1 trick.

One time I was able to teach a guy thumbaround in around 30 min.

teaching is hard because most people just don't get it no matter how slow i do the trick

Well how "fast" people can learn a trick depends on their hand (and the usability of their fingers) .... Obviously a person with more independent fingers will be able to learn tricks faster xD They may understand how the trick is done, but their hands dont allow them to do so .... >.>

It pretty much just depends on the person. Some people tell me they want to learn but they keep rushing stuff and not paying attention to the actual technique I've taught quite a few people how to do sonics tho lol

I tried to teach them TA but after 1 min, they all start complaining why they can't do it and throw some of my mods :angryfire:

i tried to teach many people, they all would drop a few times and give up or learn like 2-3 tricks and just spam them to death... but one guy actually stuck to it. he knows quad bust, he knows a decent number of linkages, wiper linkages, bak fall [except pinkybak] fl rev ta combos... hes been doing it for a few months now and he can keep a nice FS going for ~10 seconds or so. hes the only person who really stuck to it, and i bombard him with information on a daily basis. i guess very few people have the patience for it, but this guy did and im quite proud of my student when some freshmen walk up to us in the library and ask where he learned it/how he does it, he points to me and i puff my chest out and do a fs infact, he should be signing up on UPSB soon...
