Hey String Burn LIVE!

First I want to thank you once again for the Cuper 360 spintop I won a few weeks back on Episode 51. In the immortal words of McDonalds, “I’m loving it.” I’m really digging that you’re doing spintop shows, hopefully there will be a lot more in the future.

I also want to give a tip for spintop beginners. When starting out it’s rather easy to chuck the top, string, and button across the room on a hard throw, which even experienced spintoppers do from time to time. To prevent this, what I do, is double loop a rubber band or hair tie around the two fingers holding the string and button. This make the string and button a lot more secure. When doing this there will be a few tricks you won’t be able to do easily, but the trade off is a lot less broken items in your house. I always do this when playing inside as an extra safety measure.
Keep up the good work,
James
