Hi all,

As a random present my mate bought me a Blue Neon powerball form OcUk and i've been using over the past 2ish weeks or so and he bought one at the same time.

First it was a race to 10k, which I got first.

Then it was 11 which I literally just got.

Now for 12k!

This is brilliant and I love this little thing.

Everyone else, post your high scores

Basically you rotate your wrist and see how fast you can rotate a gyro inside the ball

What does everyone find is the best technique for a high score?

Personally I will go as fast as I can, and really feel the burn and try to keep going through the burn for as long as possible. Then once my arm has recovered I seem to get a better score when I go for a quick blast.

Does anyone else have any tips/techniques they wish to share?

Ja (: · 23 Jan 2007 at 00:12

The neon ones are pretty

Check Youtube out for vids before you decide what to buy though!

I find it best rotating my hand anti-clockwise with my arm slightly bent and just in front of me o.o

i get it going with my right hand which is slower than my left then quickly change hands and floor it with the left

Get it going with my slower hand (left), swap to right and give it all I can for about 10 secs. That's how I get my best scores - on 11267 (pretty lame tbh

!).
