Hobby's Pen Spinning Blog

I previously tried to make a video talking about my experiences with GlobalSpinFest , and my process of creating my video submission. But the motivation to do that faded. For me, I'm thinking it's better to ride the wave of interest and get it done then wait until later. And so, I'm writing this directly after I finished filming for the CV, fresh in my brain!   My submission to the 3rd official pen spinning collaboration video of GlobalSpin Inc. Full video here:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ox9jreQj5r8 Goals of the Combo In GlobalSpinFest I focused more on refinement, for this submission I wanted to have more highlight moments to be able to keep up with others.

I’ve meant to make an all-encompassing guide on finger positioning and it’s been too daunting for me, so this is just my way of getting these ideas out of my system. I hope this article may be helpful for others as well! The Artistic Eye Having an eye for aesthetics is something you develop and learn. It’s something you have to understand intuitively .
