He! He! 2nd day into having my PowerBall Pro Amber.
Addictive? Not as much as I thought but ya... on and off you just feel like spinning it. Just give you guys what I got... Here is a pic when I opened the package. 1 ball, 2 strings, 1 colored instruction leaflet, 1 warning leaflet. And a box. ![]() And, here is my highest score for the day. And seems like I am the highest now. Kekekeke... ![]() Oh ya... guys... do you guys feel difficult to hold the ball? My small finger feel like coming off when I spin....

Hi guys... I come with new scores again...
Now, I want to beat the 12k mark. My struggle is not because no strength (well, for first few seconds I mean) but it is more like catching the momentum of the spin. But trying too hard will just make you lose all your energy... haiz... Anyway... here are 2 scores I did last night... give you more reason to work hard... ![]() And my best score for the moment... ![]() |

QUOTE(daijoubu @ Oct 14 2007, 09:37 PM) damn timothyy you almost hit 12k already in just 2 days >.< Kekekek... but 2 days already... can't break my own record. Today I tried but only 117xx. Too lazy to take pic. Now, my ring finger hurts. My arm hurts... hahah ppl will tend to wear our the little finger first cause its the weakest its hard to grip at high RPMs cause the amount of force is crazy. you have to be strong to hold it haha yes it is safe. its like an exercise tool. if you keep wanting to pump iron non stop without resting your hard will feel like its gonna drop off too But heck... I wanna get 12k. Added on October 15, 2007, 5:14 pmI am not happy! My Powerball got klik kluk sound!!! Arrrgghhh.... I thought it was temporary but its seems like its permenant. Someone help me!!!

QUOTE(daijoubu @ Oct 15 2007, 08:14 PM) yo timothyy dont worry, the kluk kluk sound could be temporary as u use more Well, it was not there when I first got it. Just yesterday, it came out... Anyway... its OK. mine had the kluk kluk sound previously, and now it wore off already, but instead, the smooth brand new feeling is gone it really depends on how u play if u spin it very very fast and hit high topscores, and do not brake it slowly but instead just grip it hard and try to stop it, its bad for your powerball in the sense that it reduce its 'brand new' feeling but worry not the performance will not degrade much if not at all. i've compared my battered signature which feels like 1 year old after letting lots of noobs try so yeah, the powerball will slowly loose the brand new fluidity over time, and how fast that depends on how harsh you treat it, but worry not it wont degrade in performance I guess you are right when saying "it will slowly lose the brand new feel bit still manage ti give the top score" He! He! Here is my new top score for today... » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « This post has been edited by timothyy: Oct 15 2007, 08:47 PM |

QUOTE(daijoubu @ Oct 15 2007, 08:55 PM) crap ur spewing topscores non stop >.< i can see u were doing so hard, ur handprint is on the rpm counter >.< lately i've been trying hard to get 11k but i still cannot wonder how u do it whats ur secret? use steriods? kih kih kih You noticed!!!! May be its because you use Signature Series. Akis only did 14k with his Signature series but 16k with normal one. Don't worry... after Raya, all those who bought your Powerball will start showing their scores. Now holiday time... not many spammers. I think teenagers will be able to do it with higher score... |

QUOTE(Crazy.SoT.Gila @ Oct 15 2007, 10:28 PM) My best so far: My secret? No secret la... may be I less TFK... so, all the energy saved... Kakakaka....![]() Right hand is struggling to break 11k whereas left hand struggling to break 10k. Both fail..fail and fail See the red lines around the ball? Two starting cords And again... may be its because its Signature series... Go buy another one from daijaobu... About the thumb flicker... I've been trying that but not hard enough. The problem is I can't use my left thumb to flick as my left wrist is injured. But I thnk after few flicks, I should be about to start it. So, you start using 1 hand or 2hands now? Akis is using 1 hand right? QUOTE(daijoubu @ Oct 15 2007, 10:59 PM) hahaha i've mastered the art of concealment What made you think I did not do the same like you? Pretty good, but i've edged you out for the signature title xD Today, brought it to office... they all blur... didn't bothered to find out about the product. Tried it and gave up. Kakaka... |

Kekeke...
There are 2 movements in the PowerBall. 1 vertically and another horizontally. The vertical movement is the one that make the F1 sound. And this is the one that gives the RPM reading. The horizontal is the one that balance the inertia. This is the one that is making the klik kluk sound and wong wong sound. Hence, that is why they claim it will not effect the efficiency of the Powerball. Anyway... how come no ppl put up score. djb... lets start the 30 sec challenge... |

QUOTE(Crazy.SoT.Gila @ Oct 18 2007, 10:21 PM) My PB is getting worse Wow... 11499. That's good. Try using both hands to get high speed. For me, I am off as my wrist injury is getting worse after playing it. Kekekeke. Now, I got to use my wrist guard again.On the plus side, I achieved a new highscore of 11499! Added on October 18, 2007, 10:23 pmOh and, I would like to ask, is it okay to stop the ball straight away (use finger to stop it) while it's spinning? Anyway, I can get thumb start with every few tries now. My left wrist injury is making it more difficult as I can't use my left thumb to flip or hold it tight when my right thumb flip. QUOTE(daijoubu @ Oct 18 2007, 10:55 PM) yes but you'll burn your hand I guess we have to bear with the wear and tear. It is just a ball made of plastic. What can we expect? No matter how good is the ball bearing, it still uses the plactic as th rail. Sooner or later, it will wear off.you can use your shirt too, but it might introduce lint into it hmmm apparently it seems that the heavy users are the one facing this problem cause mine also have the same prob, but after the cleaning its fixed so i highly suggest u do the cleaning read the first post, under DIY Opening and Cleaning did for mine and it feels much much smoother now |

QUOTE(daijoubu @ Oct 21 2007, 09:00 PM) U also steriod user la This guy not steroid user but ganja user. That's why no energy. Kekeke... About there. My difference about 1.5k >.<. Right arm slightly larger than left somemore hohoho now training my left with the powerball thats why not doing at topscores 0.o another? *prays the camera battery is out forever* xD hahha same also Anyway, its normal not to get same score for both hands. First of all, you can control better movement on your right hand or the one that you use to tfk. Try using your other hand to tfk and you will what I mean. You can't control it as smooth. Whatever you do, be careful of your other hand as it is not as strong. It will get injured easier. |
