I've always been reluctant to get violent with the expensive piece of precision machinery (I'm an engineer, it feels disrespectful), but you've convinced me to start trying, I think.
This is excellent advice, and the best overview of the top-level basic moves I've seen. Nudging is the great equalizer--if you keep playing you get more points! A lifetime practice to be sure. Would love even more in-depth analysis of stances and specific nudge situations.
Wow, I learned a lot watching this. I will need to replay it for sure. That wiggle that (potentially) saves a ball from sinking down the side is a mind-blower for me.
This is a great video with things I never thought about. I hope you keep pinball tips coming. BTW you did a great job with programming Black Knight SoR and LED Zeppelin. Both machines are currently my top pinball machines of all time.
I had rubber (hard wood floors) feet on my ACNC, and DP. I recently swapped them out to felt. Probably couldn’t have left DP alone but the felt feet on Alice certainly help, and I need it. That machine kicks my butt, but also think it makes me a better player overall. Nice tutorial video🤙
Just curious the group thoughts on this… Girl at a tournament yesterday told me that if she held her leg and braced it on the leg of the pinball machine that it was physics and that would absorb some of the propensity of the machine to tilt. I’m not an engineer, but this just didn’t sound Realistic to me, but I’ve only had one physics class in my life so there you go…… thoughts?
@@juniorjr. Can't do much to stop it when it's rolling up. Try to nudge it out of the outlanes. Also, they're always caused by drop catches so check to see if you slow the ball down more on the catch
Pinball is an acquired skill !!!! You can't teach it !!! Sorry but if you suck at pinball you're always going to suck at pinball !!!! It's OK there are plenty of other hobbies !!!!😂

I always wanted to understand how tilting works, but that sidestepping is a new one to me. And the wiggling too
Great video mate
Nice!
Awesome video, I have a bad back and sometimes I hurt myself when I move the pinball machine wrong, this video helps a lot
Thanks Man I used your teachings and finally feel nudge worthy !

Great video Tim,very helpful ,i struggle with nudging but with your tips it will help a lot
Great video! Gonna test this out and practice
Thanks a million for these videos Tim.
You're welcome! Glad you're enjoying them.
Thanks so much! I really need to work on my nudge game. This video helps a ton!
Great video man! Love the tips! :D

Thanks! thats very helpfull advices. Im noob at nudnging - hope it helps me to improve
Won’t this damage the part where the legs go into the cabinet?
Great video, thank you!
My name isn't just a name it's a way of life! 😂
2 videos in 6 years !?!?
Never thought to hip check the person playing a machine beside you. Is tackle Pinball going to be the new thing?
Depends how cute she is I suppose….

very cool video
Cat cameo! (Flipper, it looked like?)
Any advice on balls that go up the inlane then roll down the outlanes? I hate it when that happens.
They are a downside of learning how to drop catch. You can see me handle one at 0:28
@@TimSextonPinball So do you nudge it or stop it while it's rolling up or slap it when it's nearing the outlane?

thumbs up if you are here to collect ideas for your VirtualPinball cabinet legs/foots

* nudges *
You damage the machine in the long run.
