    Default Tips & Tricks

    Hi all,

    I have used the search and cannot find this anywhere but i think it would be a good topic to have so all other powerballers can see our tips and tricks!!

    E.G.Before every high score run i take off the support band and clean it in soapy water along with my hands... As Some Of You Know It Works Wonders!!!!

    Anyway i think we should all try to post something this could turn out to be a very helpful topic indeed

    Best Regards

    As I have only just started powerballing my highest score score is in my avatar, only had it around 4 days so not major.

    I tend to wet my hands then dry them, then dry the band round my ball.

    Then start the ball up with my weaker hand (Left), then switch to my right and give it my all

    My main tip is for the relative beginners - i.e those whose high score is under about 13000.

    If you really want to increase your scores, but feel you've hit a bit of a wall, try some endurance. Set the Powerball into the 90-second Strength mode and see how much you can score without switching hands at all. Do this with one hand, rest a minute then do it with the other hand, then rest again. Repeat this a few times, rest for a few minutes, then go for some speed.

    Alternatively, if the above isn't enough of a "hard" session for you, set the counter onto the first setting, (total RPM/100 mode), and keep the Powerball spinning for anything from 20 minutes to an hour...try to maintain an average of at least 9000 to 10000 rpm. Afterwards, rest for several minutes and then try some speed.

    Hi,

    I would also suggest keeping the ball spining very slowly, instead of a complete rest, so as to maintain the muscles warmed.

    i know its been said before but, pull a balloon over the powerball, then what i do is wear a latex glove at the same time, its virtually impossible to drop the ball

    wash your hands before you try to set a record, helps a lot with grip!
