Powerballs

Well, i got mine up to 11,504..

but it seems to have developed a bit of a vibration.. scratchy sound.. it doesnt look good :( only had it about a week..
 
Vibrations/scratching are from poor technique. If you use a decent technique you will wear the ball smooth again. To break 12500 you need to have the technique down really well, only then does strength come into it at all.
 
my powerball arrived this morning, now fter 25 mins of trying to make it work its apparent that i have no idea what im supposed to be doing, followed the instructions that came with it but it still sees to spin at first but then slowly die down, any ideas?

When you pull the cord out the revs should be enough to have the neon lights going... make sure... otherwise you might find it hard to catch it

hold the ball with the counter towards your palm..

use a slow circular motion with your wrist, big slow circles to start, dont move your arm.. youll feel the powerball inside pushing against where you catch it right and thats when you build the speed
 
w00t got it to work, thanks for the advise gord! I bought the normal one as im fed up from blue neons, seems that a lot of things that i own happen to have a blue light (phone charger, laptop, desktop, monitor etc etc)
 
I managed to break the 11K rpm barrier with my right hand yesterday (snigger)!

Don't over do it at first, my wrist absolutely caned yesterday because of too much ball abuse. :p
 
my best is like 11k but i find it very difficult to get the speed going, i cant seem to move my wrist fast enuff to do it? or in small enuff circles :(
 
I hadn't touched mine in months, just tried it again and smashed my last record of about 10.5k with a stonking 11933!!!

Im so proud

Can anybody here start it up without the string? Apparently it's hard but i can do it easily with a quick flick of the thumb!

It's quite easy if you do it with your hand facing down and where your knuckles are hit the gyro from the side once or twice and it should then be fast enough.

Im not so good with using one flick of the thumb. :p

I've got the Blue Neon with counter. I think most people get that one. I'm about to start my second spin-up of the day with mine, trying to get my wrists and forearms not looking quite so skinny by using it every day.

Thers other ways of achieving that.

Exercise twice a day for 10-15 minutes.
