The Concept: I've always seen the Devil's Sonics, and Demon's Sonics, ect. and wondered, what if there was the other end of the spectrum, Angel's Arounds. I've thought about the idea for a while, and come up with something that i think is reletively new to pen spinning. I decided to name these series of tricks "Angel's" tricks because they are balanced on top of the hand, without holding it, almost as if it were floating. Hopefully some people will like the looks of these tricks, expand a little more, adapt, and these tricks will become a part of the Pen Spinning community.
The Tricks: Angel's stall This would be the basic way of getting into the position to do these tricks. Obviously there are expansions to this, and other ways to get into the same position (Ex. Twisted Sonic > Angel's Stall ect.)
Angel's IA This is the basic trick once you get into the Angel's stall. You basically let the pen drop into 12, then do an IA. It can also go back into the Angel's Stall position
Fingerless Angel's Around IA This would be the next level above the Angel's IA. This is more of one trick then Angel's IA is, because it is never caught until the end of the trick.
Fingerless Reverse Angel's RA-I don't have a vid for this one yet, but it is pretty self explanitory. It does the same thing as the Fingerless Angel's IA, except around the ring finger, and in the other direction.
Backroll This is a pretty cool idea that i had to expand on this set of tricks (IMO) Once in the Angel's Stall position, you roll the pen along the back of the hand, as far as you want, then roll it back into position. I was actually able to get the pen to go all the way down to my elbow and back in Chemestry class one time.
Angel's Drop-This is just the basic way to get out of Angel's Stall. It is pretty much just the first step in the Angel's IA. For example, if you wanted to do an Angel's drop 23, you would simply pull the ring finger out from under the pen, and let it fall into the 23 slot. No vid here, because I thought it was simple enough.
Obviously, I am not the best or most experienced pen spinner on this board, so I havent come up with all the possible variations from this set of tricks. Some, I have come up with, but am not able to perform them myself. If you try out these few tricks, try expanding on them some. I have only showed the basics of this set of tricks, and there are probably many more possible variations out there, and I encourage you to find them. I havent come up with anything for Angel's Sonic, so if you like this concept, try to figure something out. Thanks for reading.
EDIT: sorry the vids werent working earlier, they are up now :D
