    I am pretty much brand new to this stuff. All I can do is a thumb around. My question is: what pen should I use? and what do you guys use? thanks!

    Welcom! uhm you could use a bic or waterfall w/o signo tips. I prefer waterfall because it's balance and light weigh w/o the tips. For me, I use my Awesome Bic mod and some of my personal mods. If you don't know where are tutorial for all tricks. Visit penspinningonline.com. And to buy pens or mods visit penwish.com Goodluck!

    NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO. Just use a bictory. NOTHING ELSE. All of the other mods suck balls. Never ever touch another mod other than the bictory. And just a plain bictory. No grips or tips..

    As they said above, BICtory's are nice, but my first ever pen was a Personal Comssa DC mod, it didn't have any tips, just grips. Welcome to UPSB.

    Sup man! Hope you have fun in UPSB! I highly recommend an RSVP MX, you'll learn a bit slower, but you'll have style, which is rare nowadays. BICtory is fine for school, and a Metallic Comssa gives a very smooth feeling. Your pick. Stay away from any heavy mods, like the Buster CYL and Viggotgame mod. Don't even pick up a Waterfall mod yet!

    you can learn info on the mods at the UPSB wiki page :3 or you can just google the names of mods xD im new too, i can only do a thumbaround and a little bit of a fingerpass and a charge. but yah im using a BICtory and the mods i know (and know how to construct) are comssa, buster cyl, tornado, and RVSP MX. i reccommend something light like an unsharpened pencil

    Welcome to UPSB! :D I would suggest one of my favorite pens to start with... A RSVP nx mmt and a metallic comssa. ^_^ What trick are you learning now?

    :welcome: to UPSB! I would recommend you to start off with a buster cyl or vicgotgame mod. Reasons - high momentum and easier to learn tricks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Don't start off with a heavy mod like a buster cyl. You want to start with a relatively light mod.
