I noticed noone put a book spinning topic here so....
can anyone spin a book on their finger really good (like 5 seconds)?

I never really got into book spinning.

I got mad pillow spinning skills though. :P

never heawrd of it

Theyre the same thing except pillows are much lighter. I can spin my huge science textbook for like 2 seconds

Kaoru, all you have to do is put your finger slightly off center of the middle of the book then spin with your free hand. while its spinning you gotta move your hand in a clockwise motion to keep it going.

i can spin books with index, middle, and ring forever...still working on the pinky and thumb on my right hand.

for my left hand, i can only use my index and middle to spin forever.

sweet thanks ICDATA
i can do it for 2 seconds
and change your name it kinda hard to address you

book spinning looks cool IMO

Doesnt Subparspinner spin a tray in the beginners collab at the end?

um, how exactly do i change my name?

make a new account

no way, im not making a new account. ive got like 25 posts already that id be erasing

There is some info on Bookspinning on hantricks.com for anyone interested.

post count doesn't matter that much...

anyways, when you get a lot better in the future and you start participating in videos and stuff, would you want your name to show up as i-cant-do-a-ta?? gives a pretty stupid impression if you ask me...

dude i cant make a new account cause this account is registered under my e mail and we cant have 2 with the same e mail...can i get someone to delete this account so i can make new one??

u should ask nigel

Or you can remove the email in you this account.
No idea if it'll work though.

Sorry for off-topicing.
Just pm me with the name you want, I can change it for you.

nigel said he would change my name but id rather not...can't think of anything cool since someone else already has name Loki... :SORRY:

How about change your name to I-can-do-TA? :lol:

Back on topic: Book spinning is very limitted because there are only a few tricks that can be done. Spin in either one way or the other, which dosen't really look diffrent imo. Throw it from finger to finger or to your knuckles even. Throw it to your other change and change fingers again. But other then that, nothing much you can do.

I can pass it from my thumb knuckle to all fingers except pinky. Its also fun to spin with other wierd stuff like trays (subpar) or dry pressed clothes or a keyboard etc...

That wouldn't help because it would still be really hard to address me like someone said earlier. I dont really care if i give a stupid impression to people watching videos.

heh...your name gives you the impression of a huge disrespect for yourself..

it is very easy to address you....just say ta then you'll know im talking about you.

*ahem*
so bookspinning...you can also do an interesting presentation by having two people and 2 books. they can exchange books in midair...which should look very cool.

Still can't think of a good name :( . Anyone got any name ideas??

lol don't go off topic.
ask in the spammer's bin :D

tokuwee if they just started calling me ta you would never know if someone meant the trick or me.

I found out about this a while back when I was just starting to PS, never had time to try it due to all the pens,...

Here are some examples:

Well, I'm gonna try it out. Can any one here do this? If you can, how 'bout some tips?

Kangandgeon has a little something about book spinning on hantricks.com

I wish to join you in learning ^_^. Only a few can spin books at my school. Time to join them ^_^

Book spinning thread.

YEAH! Thats where I found it! Thanks for the link Sketch! And I hope to challenge FFF soon!

You'll own me :XX:

I wanted to learn to spin books until I suffered a few book spinning injuries. Pointy/hard corners =(

I can generally do the tricks shown other than the tossing(tried before but gave up) and the one with extra spin by the other hand(never tried before). book spinning is actually the first form of manipulation i start to do about 4 yrs ago, and started spinning thumbarnd and charge the following yr which make me stop spinning books

yea i do this everytime!!!!!

lol used pillows and books

specter could prove it ... i was spinning in his house lol :lol:

EDIT: ill prove it myself here
youtube

lol kinda sloppy i havent done it in a long time ::new found determination arising::

lol :lol:

i hav a friend that can transer the book on to each other hand by throwing. its sweet!!! :lol:

haha. i can do that to. but i have to transfer the book back quickly cos i can't spin the book with my left hand well. well, book mods anyone?

i can kinda do that its just like spinning a basketball ..............almost

omg, it looks like pure pwnage, but I don't think I gots any books in the whole house :jawdrop:

way too catchy. If I did that in class, my teachers would murder me. If I did that out of class, well...I have other stuff to do :P

however, my one of my friends does it too all of his books. Funny thing is that every book has a small circle in the center from being worn out from the spins
-Ko

the only problem is that there prolly arent that many variations u can do.

ROFL@ What Ko said!

Fallen: But It looks soo cool!!!

Off to attempt to spin my Physics book!
