Pinball Nudging Skills Basics

Very basic nudging skills video I threw together. Action is slowed down around 30% to make it easier to follow.

- When the ball is heading for the inlane/outlane area, nudge forward off the top of the sling or inlane post. Your goal is not to bump it into the inlane, but to just get it out of that area entirely.

- When the ball is heading for the middle, nudge left/right.

- Left/right nudging is more dangerous than forward nudging. You are more likely to get a warning or Tilt.

- Practice using just enough force to save the ball but not generate a tilt. Set your game up with a loose tilt and then gradually tighten it over days/weeks.

For more detailed information about nudging check out Pinball 101 (rentable on youtube).

The two players in the video are Walter Hurwitz and Andrei Massenkoff of the Bay Area Pinball Association.
