The Amazing Art of Pen Spinning « Wonderment Blog - 1 views

  •  
    ""Pen spinning is a form of object manipulation that involves the deft manipulation of a writing instrument with one's hands. Although it is often considered a form of self-entertainment, multinational competitions and meetings are sometimes held. This pastime originated in East Asia and is referred to as 'pen mawashi' in Japan." When i read this i wasnt surpised on how pen spinning was used for entertainment because very often during class i spin to pass time and keep my attention away from the boredom. i find that pen spinning helps me not only mentally but physically too because of the amount of stress yoru hands take form constant spinning and the mental fatigue you face when your eyes have to constantly follow the pen while your spinning.

    "Here he is, the champion, doing what he does best (other than ignoring his English teacher, I'm sure!) Apparently Mr. Omura here has dominated Japan's first pen spinning tournament to become the "sport"'s ringleader. Congratulations to him. I'm sure he has a future ahead of him, spinning not only pens, but also new progressive ideas like pencils or, for the thrill of danger, trying to spin a pen in my English lesson. (Grr!) Edit: His videos are available, and they are amazing. The real question is: Where does one go after dominating the world of pen spinning? What other sports can Ryuki move into? Well, worry not Omuramaniacs, I've done my research. I think an obvious first move would be into a championship for another game that goes on in school a lot. Janken. (Rock Paper Scissors).

    "3. Pen Spinning We all had a friend who did this, with way too much skill, in the middle class, right? And this friend had long hair and probably saved his old Arizona Tea bottles and filled them with highlighter fluid and stacked them behind his blacklight? i find this to be very disturbing but true because of all the pen spinning videos i research 99% of the good ones were all Asian and there were a few non Asian good ones but if you were to compare the videos i would say the Asian videos took more attention Is it racist to say that Asian kids are always better at dexterity tricks? I mean all these videos say "Korean kids" or "Japanese pen tricks" or something."

    "WORK ON YOUR MANUAL DEXTERITY Researchers in the UK found that children improved their handwriting by playing games that increased their hand-eye coordination. Practice tying knots, shuffling cards, pen spinning or anything else that strengthens fine motor control. Even video games can help - according to a US study, surgeons who play video games are less prone to make errors. If it can help them with something that delicate, it certainly can improve your handwriting." so technically me practicing pen spinning will help me in college but a thing that stood out to me in the paragraph was that hand to eye reaction games can greatly improve your skill in all the things listed in the paragraph which is great because i play a game called DJ Max which is like DDR for your fingers but much harder so now that i know playing these games can help im going to play a lot more
