The Vault / World Cup 2012 rumors

In this thread, we post world cup rumors. I know a bit but not everything; some communities are closed. * This is the JEB signups: http://jeb.s3.zmx.jp/viewtopic.php?f=191&t=15134 It's decent but missing some names. The JEB manager is trying to find bigger names like Mesi or HAL to join in. * It looks like s777 is a long shot for FPSB. He's too busy with college. The ace of the team would be fel2fram. There are rumors that Gisele8 might be joining the french team, which would be strange since Ivabra is eligible for the UPSB team. Former teammates would fight each other. * the triple alliance between MyPSC / SPSC / KPSA will be split evenly at 2/2/2. Don't know who's playing though. Post if you know anything!

I asked Gisele 8 why he didn't join UPSB's team cause it would be awesome to see him and Eriror together. Gisele 8 said that he was done with world cups. This happened on the sb btw. @___@

He's overrated anyway. Eriror is 2x as good! -

Think about it :| WC is about theme battle and Gisele8 may be the best speed spinner we might have :|

ivabra is spinning for us. s777 has announced that he is semi-officially-retired. felfram is good, but he wont get any points for a few categories. His combos are all the same, recently, and are ugly IMO.

No one, It's just that since BPSC isn't participating, Ivabra decided to try for the UPSB team. The last time I talked to some of the THPSC members they said that everyone from the WC10 team wanted to participate except for thelegend (either tonnam or tigeroat) but that was a couple of months ago. I think a lot of them have been inactive so it ins't looking too good for them. I think right now only BaiMai and supawit still want to participate. -

Not very good. Baaron is obviously a threat, and as is lekunga, but the others are not very awesome. -

UPSB surely though, being called universal, is for anyone to participate in? Even a JEB spinner, for example? -

we are the UNIVERSAL pen spinning board. If aliens spun, they could feasibly join the board.

Just to clear the air about Baaron, he's with LPSA because he'd rather represent a board with active spinners. UPSB may have a number of cool people and a few good/great spinners, but he's rather fed up with the community as a whole and hates how most of the people here hassle him about the mods he uses, rather than asking/commenting about his crazy linkages. Trust me, even though I don't spin that much anymore, Baaron still shows me at least 1 new linkage every few days. He's always thinking of new hybrids and links, and it frustrates him that all UPSB cares about is the thing he spins. Whether you like it or not, you gotta realize that it was Baaron who decided to spin for LPSA, and if you are a true fan or friend of him, you'd support him and wish him the best of luck. I've seen a couple of people call him out for choosing LPSA, but that's cuz they don't realize how he feels about this board. So if you were wondering why Baaron is with LPSA instead of UPSB, the forum he's been on for over 3 years, that's why. Or at least, that's what I make of it. I've known Baaron all my life, and we're pretty close brothers, so I can kinda understand the way he thinks. Plus, he tells me he blocks the people that ask him over and over about his mods, especially the oh-so-secret Baaron DC, which imo, is a decent mod at the best. xD

Seems like THPSC is changing the qualification type into sending a video instead of public voting now. We might see something new for the 6 people in our team. [I'm not going to participate this year, though. =(] Supawit is guaranteed to be in WC and perhaps, Spinnerpeem.

with regards to gisele, i dont think he is that good anyway. :/ i could spin at that speed and do funky dexteric things too... its making the speed seamless like say dongza that really brings out a combo. but hes a lot better from before. ============================================= with regards to baaron, i dont think ive ever personally pestered him for his mod. Ive actually spun a replica or the real thing, it i agree its an ok mod at best. I think baaron gets plenty of praise for his linkages and style, just look at one of his youtube vids. Replicating mods is also a pretty big thing for spinners, many spinners just like collecting as oppose to spinning. However i think majority of others just like having the mod because they actually admire the spinner and their combos, not because believe it will grant them powers. Like i knew ages ago that s777 mx would probably be average to spin, and i did everything in my power to get it!!! (traded with french spinners xD thanks MEGAS) . The only reason i wanted it was because i absolutely loved s777's combos, style and linkages and so in kinda pays homage to the spinner. (btw the mod spins pretty bad from what im used to lol) Thats why while there dozens of amazing mods made everyday, they dont get as popular say as a Seven MOD, of Buster Cyl. Ivan mod for example as far as i know only got popular when supawit/peem started to spin it. (i could be wrong here, but thats the feel i get) Another great example is MX. Come on, MX is a pretty terrrible mod when you look at it in comparison to other mods. It gets rep and is STILL popular because its a well known mod thats tons of famous spinners have and can use and so people like recreating combos with it. Its just such a shame baaron isnt competing with upsb. I think if anything the bulk of his would be teammates probably never bothered him too much about his mod. eg eriror, vic, pen ninja, jammie. etc. i hope he comes back one day, because he was and still is so integral to UPSB. =============================================================== too bad s777 isnt competing. ive always wanted s777 and pyralux dream tag to come back, and was then hoping for something like fel2fram + fratleym to own some of the tags. i honestly think its clear FPSB is one of the best boards in terms of creativity and linkages if they got their dream team. go fel2fram! go gollumsk8!

@neoknux_009 i agree on everything you said. people like to have mods from famous psers. s777 and pyralux tag is the best tag i've seen so far. fel2fram is crazy. FPSB will win WC-12 withfel2fram. but freeman is a threat to other boards too.

gsk8 dropped off a lot. disappointing at WT11 R1 and poor results in the FPSBT. He is no longer considered elite in FPSB. -
Date: Wed, Dec 21 2011 06:05:45
Personally I don't like Lindor's spinning xD He's good at creativity and (maybe) execution, but Fel2fram is much more better at both mentioned aspects ...

really? that makes no sense really :/ his WTR1 vid was really really good. Lindor makes sense for creativity themes. Futhark is cool too, but his combos confuse me. sometimes i feel creativity emphasis , othertimes i feel smoothness emphasis..i guess im not feeling the synygy with his trick families. FPBS is at least still very strong. cant wait for fel2fram to step up. of course a13x will take care of any power trick theme x) -

It makes no sense if he is a UPSB spinner, but have you seen the general standard in FPSB? It's way tougher there to be elite. -
Date: Thu, Dec 22 2011 18:02:35
FPSB is becoming a serious threat. Fel2fram and lindor are really good, and powertricking can easily be handled by A13x. They are starting to look just as good without s777.

@SJ for this WC, boards are allowed to team up if the individual boards can't get 6 strong members to participate. So KPSA, SPSC and MyPSC teamed up together to form a team.

Personally i think that the drop off s777 in FPSB´s team is not going to be a problem for them. for Power they have A13X,maybe creativeness Lindor or Fram,and some other potential psers that they might got there. BUT,the WC is a Team tournament,and as fang said once,they got no team spirit,even if theyre a big deal to other boards

You do not need team spirit in this competition. :dunno: It's quite a 'solo' team effort. -

I have to disagree with this. The last WC was evidence that if a team is united and knows how to work together effectively, they can go further then where their ability can carry them. BPSC got all the way to 2nd place when they weren't expected to do very well. They played their strength and worked together in the doubles battles very well and I believe that was the biggest reason why they got so far. JEB on the other hand seemed to be messing around with their battles and if not for ponkotu, they wouldn't have made it to the top 4. THPSC is also a good example. They were already the strongest team but they were very smart when if came to which spinner participated in each round like saving peem for the last 2 rounds which sort of confirmed their victory in the WC -

I agree that BRPSB are unlikely to do well this year. I think other boards are coming out with some strong teams and BRPSB would be extremely lucky to make it to a semi-final this year. However, I don't think those clips are not impressive. For the level that pen spinning is at right now, those are some pretty good spinners. Top 3: THPSC, JEB, FPSB. -

I dont know what you see that is so great about these videos. There have been 2 pretty good spinners, but even though wont mean much against spinners such as A13x and snow. Also, I know those spinners are above my level. That in no way means I cannot critique them. Just b/c they are better than me doesnt mean that I have no idea how spinning is suppossed to look.

OK,i know,just wanted people show more respect for other boards. ive seen people flaging boards like IPSB and even KZPSC,just cuz they havent got spinners like Snow or A13x. as in the latest WC,nobody expected that BPSC would get to the finals. @taichi1082 ^^^^^^^read -

Ok, I took a look at the BRPSB videos, and I have a few comments: [B]darkinhex[/B] - he looks like a copy of baimai... but while baimai has flawless execution (or can fake his way through it), darkinhex makes obvious execution errors. BaiMai set some high standards with his style and combos, and darkinhex fails to give that style a little personal taste. [B]well[/B] - 2p2h in the beginning is ok, but again with the it's-been-done-better thing. there have been some amazing 2p2h combos recently, and well fails to live up to those standards. also, the use of hand movements in his 2p2h is really overused. and he has control issues. [B]dashhh[/B] - by far, the most non-world level spinner. there's some okay minicombos in there, but there's a lot of spam going on in between. [B]darkness[/B] - This guy reminds me of the old peem: power tricks and fundamentals, except that his fundamentals (non-power tricks) are clearly underdeveloped. again with the it's-been-done-better thing. [B]sanozucke[/B] - pretty good, though I find some of his finger movements awkward. maybe that's just me. 0:22 ;_; [B]mirek...[/B] - obvious lack of smoothness, last fl ta really wants to make me cry. overall, he has an underdeveloped style. technical spinner, but without the technique. I think BRPSB has passable spinners. A lot of them are falling into the "copy others" trap, but then they don't add something new to the style or spinner that they are trying to copy. It gives a feeling of deja-vu. Control issues are rampant among these spinners, and some of them really need to go back to fixing the basics. Standards are also changing. In WT'09, it was all about technical stuff (difficulty), but it's been slowly moving toward artistic ability. I hope to see a lot more new tricks/ideas this year.

Ok then. just one comment. as i saidbefore, Darkness video was from 2010. he evolved alot more than this. Dashh can be a non world level pser,but for a spinner with 1 year and some months,hes just amazing,dont you think? from mirek,hes got a unique style(only my point of view),and amazing linkages.i personnally dont like his spinning too,but hes by far,oneof the most amazing spinners in my board Darkinhex is really a copy of baimai.if you read the description of the video,youll see it.BUT,i really think most of them are hiding stuffs for the WC.so dont judge only a combo. and come on guys. you guys compare only the spinners from other boards like PSH,FPSB.what artistical spinners does UPSB got that are entering in the WC?UPSB natives.not people like Gisele and Ivabra,that may join in the UPSB team. @hoiboy

4 Spinners from GPC are already final: kirua Sponge Minwoo Josh_Pr Currently, there is a public vote for the remaining two spots: http://forum.penspinning.de/viewtopic.php?f=148&t=28122 Deathfish, Pudels Kern, Sekutor, Swob And there is currently a discussion on whether or not LPSA Votes should count since they all vote for Sekutor (formerly known as BonkingElephant, GPC/LPSA inside Joke)

Finally kirua. It's going to be the best WC ever. If Pudels gets on that team they're going to be my favorite.

Are you misunderstanding something? Im saying that UPSB would beat BRPSB, not PSH or FPSB. Neo, Hippo, and Eriror and the other WC spinners of UPSB would beat the spinners from your board (IMO). Not spinners from FPSB. Also, we have a DECENT team. Not freakin THPSC 's team. Also, Ivabra attempted to qualify for us, and we would be fools not to accept him, so that adds some. -

only in the WC to see it. are you a psychic? can you prevent the future? also,my board line ups are not decided yet. and most of the videos i posted here are not that recent. so lets just see it.IF you guys beat BRPSB,you would probably lost in the next round to another board like THPSC,TWPS and GPC -

I havent checked that page in forever. Also, its ok if he chose not to compete. If he didnt make the cut, well, then FPSB needs a judge change. -

well there goes my hopes for s777. V_V im not a fan of gisele, but joining fpsb is interseting i guess. i guess there goes ivabra for our team, really strong player for FPSB though. i think if fits more than BPSB combinesn with FPSB. For Jeb, where in the world is Hal? I suppose if ponkotu really wanted to partipate he would have sent. shame though. Kay...hahaa his style is really intesrtig. so aggresive with his 2p1h. i suppose it could work if he improves control adnd smoothness. the times they are a changingggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg

The artistic battles aren't looking that great without ponkotu and Freeman. Looks like only Lindor, f2f and Baimai can produce super creative combos.
