Title: Memories

Your favourite, and least favourite, pen spinning memories.
I think my favourite is the maths lesson in which I learnt my first trick, TA.
My worst memory has to be the closure of UPSB V2, such an awful day.

My favorite time period would have to be the California Gathering...
- hanging out some more with SubParSpinner
- meeting kam
- meeting the sexy kaisen
- getting my first true AMMX made with SubPar and kam's help
- getting my first RSVP MX (with a spiffy made-by-kam insert)
- seeing a few extremely frustrated people after a LONG time making an irisgito (which I didn't pay much attention to, so I can't help anyone make one -_-)
- watching kaisen's rubixcube skills
- learning to do a 1-hand card cut
- learning to shuffle a desk of cards w/out using a table
- watching kam show off his speed cup skills, and everyone try their hand at it
- watching SubPar say to a few passing people "what are you looking at? We're not weird... you're weird"
- Seeing SubPar's MASSIVE pen collection
- hearing kam answer his cell phone as "kam"
...good times.
My 2nd favorite time would be a close second:
Recieving my first traded pens from michael2010:
- 4 Dong-A Sign Pens O_O
- 2 Lakubos
- 3 F-3000s
Worst memory: losing my very first Comssa mod, SubPar gave it to me when we first met. T_T

Favourite:- "Hey man, its possible to do this trick (TA) without any fingers, i dunno if i can do it though...never tried"
*does FL TA*
"WHOAH!"
Worst: "Are you a baton twirler or something"
:XX:
Eso - July 4, 2007 04:10 PM (GMT)
Best: When I became friends with most of you guys.
Worst: When radio became more or less dead.
Ephem - July 4, 2007 04:27 PM (GMT)
Best : "Getting my first Rsvp Mx <3"
Worst : "Wait, you could be like those baton twirling girls that prance around the streets"
Dr1v37h38u5 - July 4, 2007 04:32 PM (GMT)
BEST: seeing how far UCPSB has gone through the years. starting as a chill, hangout spot, to becoming one of the most influential and prominent boards.
WORST: losing my first fake MX.....
OTHER WORST: and then UPSBV2 closing.
OTHER OTHER WORST: losing an HGG tip with my first prototype comssa retr. I was spinning it without gluing. Somehow, it flew off and disappeared somewhere in my house. i really don't know where it went as i saw where it landed. unfortunately, it's gone. (it was the only HGG tip i had at the moment. this threw off my modding plans for a while until i could get a replacement.)
Zombo - July 4, 2007 05:02 PM (GMT)
best: when UPSB+PDS was finally released
worst: first spam attack ever on UPSB by bojo, firebird.
strat1227 - July 4, 2007 05:04 PM (GMT)
Best: The feeling of accomplishment when something actually worked for me lol (Hybrid notation, UCPSB Pens, Sponsership)
Worst: uum, the feeling like shit when people flame you for those accomplishments.
Pearl - July 4, 2007 09:30 PM (GMT)
My best memory would be the first time someone looked interested about the passtime I've had.
Worst : « Hey man, do you play drums ? » « Oh I know, you play drums right ? » « Bah, It's easy when you play drums. »
WTF ? I don't play drums ? :pullhair:
Tainted Elements - July 4, 2007 09:42 PM (GMT)
best memory:
ill always have a good memory whenever someone comes up to me while your spinning and says "hey, can you teach me that?" that feeling is pretty awesome.
worst memories:
theres always that one person, like health,ephem, and pearl said, that calls you a baton twirler or some kind of drummer. but then theres that one kind of person..
"what the fuck are doing?"
"its called pen spinning"
"you must probably have no have no life, huh?"

nobody's ever said that to me... they always just say 'how do you do that?!?! ZOMG !11!!one!!"
and that just pisses me off... i mean, how do you answer that?
"It's magic."
Pearl - July 5, 2007 12:11 AM (GMT)
Ahaha That's a good one
It's magic, I'll remember that
TiNY - July 5, 2007 12:51 AM (GMT)
Lol when people ask me how I do that, I just tell them that it came to me in a dream :P
Best: When me and my friend Cory (CaKe (from UPSB)) were just starting out spinning, man those were good times... I remember we'd always have huge plans of future collabs/promotions, one time we discussed how when we were "pro" we were gunna make a video and imitate all of the best spinners like Tohlz and NHK.. And when we were gunna make a vid of both of our hands in the same shot (he was left handed) and act as if it was one person and just bust out the craziest combos :P
Worst: UPSB's closure obviously, which also brought an end to my best memory <_<
Webo Splash - July 5, 2007 02:05 AM (GMT)
Best: Eso's rant about random shit. But him saying Jessica Alba is fuckin hot, that made my day. Eso is one of my favs now.
Worst: Seeing a spinner teach some one else the stuff I taught him.

Webo Splash - July 5, 2007 02:29 AM (GMT)
There are barely any spinners in my area. And when he taught them, he never said that I taught him that and it pissed me off a litt.
InhumanElmo - July 5, 2007 03:12 AM (GMT)
Fav: Me getting all of my spinning pens taken away from me by a teacher and then him giving me a bic to write with only for me to spin it again.
Worst: 1 friend of mine who learned spinning -_-

so? do you credit every spinner whose combo you were inspired off when making your own?
rodi - July 5, 2007 04:54 AM (GMT)
Good: Sorry if this is kinda long....But the first guy I ever saw do thumbaround is one of my Boss's at work and he told me it was "magic" and I'd never be able to learn it, I was intrigued and it lead me to the interest I have in psing today, that was only about three months ago, and I was in a meeting with him a couple of weeks ago at work and I had an MX with me and was just freestyling, he looked over and stopped the whole meeting and told everyone to watch cuz I was doing "amazing" things with my pen...Aww it will never get better than that!!!
Bad: I broke an F-3000 the day I got it
K4S - July 5, 2007 05:28 AM (GMT)
Good: When i was searching for an active pen spinning forum and stumbled upon UCPSB.
Bad: When i decided to get back into pen spinning from a 2 year hiatus only to discovered that USPBv2 was shut down
TLDScorp - July 5, 2007 04:18 PM (GMT)
favorite: when my friend begged me to make him a "spinny pen" and i told him to get the pens i needed, i gave him the pen for him to notice that it dont spin on its own, and u have to work at it lol.
worst: when someone wanted to spin my MX and broke the tip and lost it soon after i made it.
Lunchboxx - July 5, 2007 05:18 PM (GMT)
Best-Learning TA and Sonic...and finding this board

KenIchirou - July 7, 2007 11:58 PM (GMT)
Well the memory that I've remembered was, during lunchtime. I was pen spinning and I was doing infinity then I released it, and when I was about to catch it I wasnt even close to to catching, then my pen broke.. :( that was my last time breaking a pen.
AzNwAr3oR - July 8, 2007 06:21 AM (GMT)
AHAHA if ppl ask me how do you do that? I say very carefully.
Best: Learning Shadow (I squealed like a little girl (really))
Worst: Losing my favorite pen under a shelf at a store (well actually after reaching under the shelf and getting my arm covered in dust I got it <_<) so nvm that one actually.
Real Worst: When someone said that some dude was better than me and all he could do was infinity :angryfire: and I was doing a sweet combo too :banghead: (then again I showed him the infinity then he agreed that I was better)
OKAY REAL WORST: When someone said wow its like baton twirling
