Im sure this has been talked about in the Research Department but im just wonder what everyone thinks about it?

I myself notice i spin better with my all black Rsvp Mx then my red to green Rsvp mx.

so im wondering if this is a load of shit or does anyone else feel the same as me?

this is the question if i wasnt clear enough in my post;
Does the colors on your pen influence your style or how well you spin?

Yea, It's gotta have some influence, but how much I'm not sure.

hmm sure, just like red incites fast speed when driving.

i think the effects are psychological rather than related to pen spinning per se.

yep, I just don't want to spin an ugly pen :P

well I can more enjoy spinning when I like the pen...

other thesis:
you ever heard of this asian color stuff? :ninja:

red: makes you more concentrated but to much red makes you aggressive...
orange: makes you relaxed
blue: concentrated but has more harmony like red because water is also rly relaxed...
and so forth

maybe this has also a bit influence B)

but I think first of all you've to like the colors of you pen... I wouldn't spin with an all blue RSVP... it's so :wacko:

I tend to spin better with a light colored pen. It makes it easier to see.

Well, before I switched to all black I used to constantly change my MX to try and make it look cooler. I guess maybe sometimes if I was spinning and I thought it looked bad I wouldn't spin as well, but I'm not sure. All black for life though.

Black and silver or white.

I doubt colours would do much...

Buuut with people watching, and knowing that you're spinning a crappy pen...

Uh. Not sure how to complete that sentence.

My pen is black and gold (-ish) I don't really think colour has anything to do w/ your pen spinning. Maybe just preference and how easy it is to see. Or it could influence just a tiny bit but not to the point of someone spinning like:
"UGH. MY PEN IS SO UGLY. -spinning furiously- :spin: "
I mean, if you like your pen, wouldn't you spin it more? And therefore be better at pen spinning? :lol:

a pen only made up of Red Yellow and Blue could make you crazy psychologically

i think it might also be the fact that they're not 100% identical...i can tell you for a fact that none of my 3 mxs are identical in weight or balance.

I think it has 0 influence.

i dun even look at my pen when i spin. lol

colours like blue and sky blue make me feel calmer and more serene when i spin, even though i'm not looking at my pen.

its just the thought that i am spinning a blue pen which gives me this feeling. if only i could trick myself into thinking the pen is sky blue. :lol:

Yeah I'm with DeathAngel on this one. I don't usually look at my pen when I'm spinning, so colour doesn't have that big of an influence on my style. And even when I am looking at my pen while spinning, colour doesn't really change the way I spin, or how I feel while spinning.
Like Zombo said, it's more of a psychological thing and the feelings we associate with specific colours.

when it comes to angles, and actually filming your combo, the colour can have a big affect on the final product, both frame rate wise and visual-wise.

Other than that, it does not really have a big effect on me.

This is true, since if you're filming a combo in direct light with a white background, it might not be a good idea to use a light coloured pen over one with darker colours.
