  • Just wanted to add my thanks. This is the only video that explained this Technique properly. I've finally started to do it, but it's not as consistent as I would like. Any tips?

  • Practice, practice, practice! In no time at all, you'll be able to start it EVERY time with your thumb.

  • what the point of this powerball things...like what is it what does it do ?

  • What exactly is a Powerball? It's a hand-held sphere within a sphere that can provide you with hours of fun as it simultaneously gives your fingers, hands, wrists, forearms, biceps, and triceps a great workout (via its powerful gyroscopic action)!

    It's a wonderful tool that aids in the prevention and rehabilitation of carpal tunnel or other repetitive strain injuries affecting the wrists.

  • great explanation....

    so where can you get one ??

  • From me on ebay...do an advanced search for seller: bradd78

  • GREAT VID! managed to do it on my 8th time trying many thanks

  • reaches to do 1500rpm with thumb but impossible to continue the rotation,

    just lose speed..

    any advice??? cuz i'll become crazy to don't succeed that

  • I've just ordered a Neon green powerball with rpm counter and I'm hoping to get it tomorrow or the day after that. And I'm hoping to learn this technique quickly as it looks way more convenient as a string

  • with just one try. amazing!

    Cheers!

  • it took me bwt a day (which is long) to learn, but i cn now do it with both hands nearly evry 1st tym :)

  • Back in the days of the Dynabee, we used to run them down the side of our leg. I never thought to use other hand.

  • got it! brilliant, thanks!

  • thank you!!! xD

  • good technique... another way that Ive found to be effective is just striking it against the palm of your hand. make sure you strike the palm in the same direction of the guide line then start rotating. this way gives you more power so its easier for beginners. also if it doesnt start good enough the first strike then u can hit it against your palm again, the technique he shows is good but a bit more advanced
