Finger spinning is popular not only for entertainment, but also as a special sport - pen spinning. Learning this art requires a lot of patience and dexterity from a person.
Instructions
Step 1
Prepare a suitable handle for training. It is desirable that there are no protruding parts on it, it should be of an elongated streamlined shape, preferably with a rubber or other non-slip coating. Check if the rod and the caps at both ends are well secured in its body. For convenience, at the beginning of training, you can disassemble the handle and train only with its empty body.
Step 2
Train your finger dexterity. Raise your hand parallel to the floor surface with the handle, holding it in the middle with your index and thumb. Try to straighten your fingers, toss the handle up slightly, and then sharply catch it with your thumb and middle fingers. Practice this exercise with different pairs of fingers.
Step 3
Learn to do one of the simpler tricks. Pinch the center of the handle between your ring and middle fingers, creating pressure between them. In this case, one of the ends of the handle should rest against the thumb.
Step 4
Try to quickly release the end of the handle that rests on your thumb. As a result, the handle will fly in the desired direction. With the handle free, bend your middle finger back a little, and try to connect your index and ring finger so that they are crossed over the middle finger. Grasp the handle with your middle and ring fingers and reinforce it again. Practice this trick until you know how to do it flawlessly. Try doing it with both hands.
Step 5
Complicate the exercise by gradually loosening the handle on the thumb and using only the middle and ring fingers until you learn to perform the trick without support. After that, practice twisting the handle in different directions, fingering it between different fingers, tossing and catching in the air, etc.
