QUOTE(Crazy.SoT.Gila @ Oct 23 2007, 11:02 PM) I can't seem to flick it fast enough. And I don't understand the wine glass technique hehe.. erm.. actually just think of it this way. from the normal way you rotate ur wrist when holding the ball, now you have to reposition your palm so that your thumb and index finger wraps around the lips of the ball. like how you hold a whisky glass (am i right on this? or is it wine glass? =.=.. i dun drink hahahaha... sorry). so when you wanna rotate the ball, have to change the angle of rotation abit lor. thats why i said rotate like rotating a glass filled with water Used to use strings.

But I can't flick it to be fast enough. Too little space for movement djb, disco light is more suitable |
