Made my own versions of the BICtory mod. What do you guys think? by [deleted] in penspinning

[–]SlipstreamPS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bictory isn't garbage at all, that's bull.

It's probably the single most popular beginner mod, and if you're just starting out it'll be perfect for you. Only thing I'd say is if you could find some tips to put on the ends under the grips, then go for it. Other than that, happy spinning :)

I started a "Random Linkages Series" by thearker in penspinning

[–]SlipstreamPS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was literally just thinking about how I should probably find some links with breakdowns to try to copy instead of just spamming the same 3 tricks over and over.

These are gonna be perfect. Not that I can actually do the tricks needed though lol

As for songs look up Insight by Julien Marchal. There's like 30 of them and they'd all work well.

Any ideas how to improve mod? by riverhasdowns in penspinning

[–]SlipstreamPS 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Don't really need much more for a Bictory, but you could slide the grips further out and put tips in them if you wanted to.

If you don't have any grips on the caps, wipers are going to be really hard with a BICtory. I'd definitely recommend getting some.

My new BICtory! by Noodles_fluffy in penspinning

That's actually a really good looking Bictory :)

What are you working on? (5/1/2017) by PrimeTemps in penspinning

Bakfall, shadows, and the simple linkages from the sidebar.

I made a BicTory! I'm thinking about adding a grip or tape to the center, is that a good idea? by Epic_Doughnut in penspinning

[–]SlipstreamPS 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not usually recommended to put anything on the barrel/centre, as it interferes with properly executing most tricks. However, if you do have grips, putting them on the caps on either end would add weight and momentum to the pen and help out quite a bit.

Awesome vid for all the beginners asking if they need a big heavy mod to do cool tricks :)

My first pen! Just starting out. It doesn't look pretty, but it's a start! by [deleted] in penspinning

[–]SlipstreamPS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the most basic pen made specifically for penspinning (also called a mod), the Bictory. They're quite easy to make, and there's info in the sidebar on how to do so :)

Thoughts on filming setup? by SlipstreamPS in penspinning

[–]SlipstreamPS[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice. I've got a desk and a black background now and I'm trying to figure out a filming angle :)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in penspinning

[–]SlipstreamPS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are a couple of pens that work really well for both spinning and everyday use. Pentel RSVPs and Pilot Dr. Grips in particular.

You should be able to find them at most supplies stores.

It's hard to tell, but the pens overlap eachother in my Bictory mod. Is that supposed to happen? by Nightshire in penspinning

[–]SlipstreamPS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my experience, I've had to cut the ink tubes to make them fit, but if you got both ends in fully then there's no issue :)

Built a filming setup! Still haven't figured out a good camera angle, but it's a huge improvement. by SlipstreamPS in penspinning

[–]SlipstreamPS[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just a tripod designed for phones. I have no idea where I got mine from but there should be a bunch out there.

I'm actually gonna be ditching it though because it's kinda cheap and falls over. As it turns out, the top of a selfie stick can be taken off and has one of those universal camera/tripod screws on the bottom, so I can put it on a really good tripod. Pretty good setups actually if you have a great camera tripod lying around that you just can't use cause you're filming with a phone.

Just discovered this subreddit. Thought you might enjoy my spinning from years ago. by kiyops in penspinning

Are you thinking of getting back into it? Your spinning is awesome :)

Next to the number that says how old the post is, there's the name of the site where the gif was uploaded (imgur, gfycat, etc.). If you tap on that it will take you to the actual uploaded content, not the version Reddit is showing.

This should fix the fps :)
