How do you get through your frustration? Because failing is really frustrating and that feeling corrodes your motivation... It has to be your core skill for this channel. And that spinning book looks so good in slow mo ^^
thats funny, we used to sit at the back of the room during guitar classes and have spinning book on finger competition. Taking books out got banned during guitar classes after that.
I have managed to spin a book for one minute after five days of intense learning and I must say it really paid off. There is actually nothing better you could do in these hard times of Coronavirus.
Goal Guys you gotta keep trying different techniques, I can do it and it did take a while for me to master it. But it is possible. I spin it on my middle finger on the left hand and it spins toward me. Try that and you will have a better experience
Ahhhh yes, I do this when I’m at the library 📚 and I get so many people who are impressed, longest time for a spin is 3 min. It took me about 5 days practicing for around 2 hours a day.

UA-cam adds a second, just for no apparent reason. So the video is actual post editing 9 minutes and 59 seconds long. but UA-cam just does this stuff. Edit. Forgot to mention that this is only the case on the mobile app.
I think these videos are not about learning quick, they are about perseverance. At least, that's what I see and I think it's even better! I hope you apply it in other parts of your life.
DaP84 can you give an example of something else with a displacing center of mass? No way I’m going to risk my money by doing it with a pizza lol. I’ve done it with a zipped binder that had a loose book inside, does that count ?
Yess! Today I reached my milestone for bookspinning!! (Only I did it with a cutting board) I set my milestone at a one minute spin. Today is day 9. At day 8 it just clicked in my head and I was able to do consistant 30 second spins. It feels so good to achieve a milestone!! I hope more peaple try to achieve this skill becouse the proces of learning is very fun!!
Umut Ysr easy asf, did in the bathroom one day, tip: slide one of your feet, flatfooted, next until it’s behind the other one then pull your heel up, repeat with the other foot. Make the transition smoother and smoother each time, looking in a mirror can help you get a better look
Random Some Guy and another tip to really smoothen things out, when you “slide” your foot, it doesn’t actually touch the ground, you slightly hover it while putting all your weight onto the grounded foot until you pop your heel up and switch
Or a language that not many people know or which is nearly of fully extinct. That would be an "advertisement" for the language and even harder, because of the lack of resources.
120 wpm is such a hard skill. My max is 104. Increasing this record is such a hard thing to do. I think if Mike's base speed is less 100 he won't be able to achieve that speed in a long time (I think a couple of months at least).
Learn a color guard triple on rifle or a double on flag. I am a senior on my highschool color guard and have committed countless hours to hone my art.

Learn something cooking related! How to dice an onion in x seconds. Pull a buzzfeed and learn to make omurice. Idfk I just want to find a way to get you to collab with my boy Babish.
Learning with a heavy square pillow is the best way to get the motion down, start with your finger slightly offset from the center and kind of push it around in tiny circles. that’s how I learned and it translates really well to books.
Old video, I know. But I never knew this would be considered a skill, or that there was a record for it. I learned to do this as a child out of pure boredom. Amazing.

It doesn't work that way. Something which can be called a skill is subjective to a person. Therefore they will never consider a Guinness record.
