Just saw some video and website about pen spinning
I wish I could do this but all I can do is watch and possibly fail miserably trying.
Before I get to the video about PenSpinning here is a brief Lesson from Wikipedia:
Pen spinning is a form of contact juggling that involves the deft manipulation of a writing utensil with one’s hands. Although it is often considered a form of self-entertainment (usually in a school/office setting), multinational competitions and meetings are often held
This pastime is also supposedly referred to as “rōnin mawashi” in Japan, allegedly because pen spinning is more prevalent among “rōnins”, or high-school graduates who take a year off in order to study by themselves in preparation for university entrance exams.
Presently, there is no documentation to show who started the pen spinning phenomenon. However, it is understood that a Japanese pen spinner named Hideaki Kondoh was one of the earliest pen spinners to start a pen spinning website.
