Title: THE CHALLENGE
Description: multiple RTA spins?

OK, so recently, I mastered 1.5+ thumb spin and have been messing around with it. I've done a form of TA harmonic except with 1.5 spins on the thumb around normal. Anyways, I then tried to do 1.5 on RTA and found it impossible. Is it even possible? I know it must be because I've done it before on accident but still. If anyone could post a video and some tips on how to do it that'd be swell. :bowdown:

NHK could do ThumbSpin Reverse 1.5, as I believe can Tohlz, and I'm pretty sure you will find a video of TS 1.5 Harmonic on one of their sites.

Try doing fake reverses, but catch the pen between t1. David Weis does this trick a lot, just check out his site.

eriror can do rev ts like 6.0 consistantly

myself i can do like 8.0 normal, 4.0 backwards harmonic...

Where do you guys come from? Are you even human? <_< lol

I remember the good old days when 3.0 was impressive :rolleyes:

Well, if you can't do them, don't feel bad. But they are possible.

First of all, make sure you know the difference between ThumbAround and ThumbSpin. I find it unlikely that you are talking about a TA 1.5 Reverse, as that doesn't really go well with a ThumbSpin 1.5, not to mention it's a really unusual trick.

But if you want a Harmonic combo to go with your TS 1.5 Normal, you got two options:

perform a Fake Reverse 1.5
or do a ThumbSpin 1.5 Rev

The second will look more of a harmonic, but both spin on top of the Thumb, so you can go with whichever is easier for you (I'd say the Fake Reverse is easier).

yo TAP, KAM commented in your topic! now, u need to give me some pens xD. and ive shown u thumbspin rev i thought?

this trick is actually pretty simple. just do a rev TA but push lighter, then when its going around, duck your thumb down and let it spin

Why the hell would you push lighter?

practice. I can only do it if I bend my thumb down.

There is a guy in my class who can do reverse thumbspin 1.5 onwards easily but can't do a thumbspin. As for me, it is very unpredictable as sometimes I do rev. thumbspin and sometimes fake reverse.

I feel like I'm human, yes. But 6.0 is kinda an exaggeration. There are other things way more important than a silly ThumbSpin. :P

When I do ThumbSpin Reverse, I first do Fake Reverse, and then do a thumbs up, so the pen goes around my thumb.
