aeroguy Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 My connection speed is not good enough to for video until the middle of the night so I can't see what the hype is until then. Is there anything watch related in the video or should this be considered "off topic"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slay Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 could you explain how to do the spinning around the hand thing? most of the rest I can do too (of course much slower lol). I cant shorten my chain though, cause I dont have the right equipment. mine has about 7links! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugwash Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 could you explain how to do the spinning around the hand thing? most of the rest I can do too (of course much slower lol). I cant shorten my chain though, cause I dont have the right equipment. mine has about 7links! You need to get it in a flat spin where the force of the spin keeps the sticks pointing away from each other. It will roll around your hand like a stick, but if the chain is too long, it will end up in the wrong place. You need the chain to be set to your hand. To learn the hand-spin, the easiest method is to start with the ice-pick grip (chain hanging from the other end of the hand to the thumb) and start some nice reverse-grip figure eights. Nice and smooth. Then just release the stick, slow your hand and watch the loose stick come round. Grab it between the meat of your thumb and palm and keep it flowing. Once you've got that, you'll have a feeling for how to flat-spin the sticks in the ice-pick grip. Then, you can move to the much harder foil-grip (standard position). Good luck and practice with plastic if possible as this can go horribly wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrono903 Posted December 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 I have 5 links in my chain. If i recall, i bought the links at home depot, they have a cutter. As for spinning the chucks around your hand, Pug did much better job trying to explain it than i could. There are 5 different and unique spinning moves i know,meaning, not just variations of one. It is fun to make the videos so i am going to make more. I will do "how to" videos. I always break the moves into fighting moves and spinning moves. Not that i would have the ability to fight with them, thats just what i called them. They are a great tool for hand speed, coordination, strength and a lot of fun. Unfortunately, everytime they come out, some billy bad ass feels obligated malign ones good intentions. Not that that happened here, but in general.

slay Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 I mean I COULD go to some home depot store and have them resize the ting, the only problem is, those things are considered a banned weapon over here, which means high fine or prison sentence. You cant even own them with a gun license, they are just totally illegal. How long should the chain be? as long as my palm? btw. I bought it in france when I was young in case anyone wonders where I got it, since its illegal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugwash Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 It's been a while since I've twirled a pair of chucks. You've inspired me to dig my old sticks out and give it a go. No video, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Tracy Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 Pretty impressive... I'm also versed in them.. I know you know, that most of those moves are just for show and would give someone the chance to take then away from you... Do you know your blocks ? Now that you have mastered the two pole,.. try the three pole,.. much more fun with a large variety of surprising tricks and locks that can take years to master...
