ulgrim Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 Now we need people to start doing one finger powerballing, one in each hand, powerball behind the back, etc =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clay Edgin Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 Porkbone and I are bringing our powerballs to the Venice Beach gathering this weekend to see how fast we can get both spinning at the same time. I'm guessing that a dual 10,000rpm effort would be very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldGuy Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 Is that one in each hand or two in one hand? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milkbone Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 Anyone try to powerball with one hand and write with the other? That's not really a feat of strength, but it is hard to do ... at least for me. I was on the phone earlier today powerballing with one hand and went to write a note with the other and had to stop powerballing because my right hand wanted to monkey what my left was doing with the powerball.

Dargath78 Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 My friend does 1 in each hand. Starts them both himself too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zevich Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 If you can spin one in each hand and one top of your head you might find employment with Barnum & Bailey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suterp Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 I've been keeping the powerball in the car and doing it while I drive. No accidents yet! Do you guys go clockwise or counter clockwise? Palm up or down or to the side? I do palm down. Right hand goes clockwise and left goes counter clockwise. I can do the other variations but those seem strongest. And do you put the meter in your palm or facing away? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dargath78 Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 I try to change positions all the time. I have done it while driving too, it seems like I can get a better score, I cant explain why I just feel like my body is still and solid and I can concentrate on just my wrist. I have held it with the rotor both ways and another way of getting a good score for me is to hold the ball above my shoulder to the side and pump my arm up and down while turning my wrist. I know this isnt a very good description but it may get people experementing with different ways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ulgrim Posted July 17, 2004 Author Share Posted July 17, 2004 I hold it with the meter tucked into my palm (I have a bruise there now) with the rotor facing roughly left, and I spin it so that if you were facing my palm, it would be going clockwise.
