Is this already enough for starting the scoreboard Enda?
I mean..please don't forget the self-advertising effect of a dual-run scoreboard. People will say: "Hey, what is that?" "Man, this guy is unbelievable (me :-P)!" "I am going to try that too!! :-) "

P.S. Akis, did you already see my dual powerball runs? Are you impressed or does it make you laugh, because you can easily hit 30000rpm? Did you ever try it yourself?
Yes I saw it. I was impressed (not with the score of course :-p) with your effective co-ordination on both hands simultaneously.Originally Posted by The Force
For me it will probably not work so easily. I can achieve high scores on each hand, but I require absolute concentration and dedication for the specific effort. Furthermore, I use different technique on each hand, therefore it would be almost impossible to co-ordinate both hands movement in the same time.
Due to the above actually, my powerballs would rather get bashed and devastated during the effort (and I believe you realize how much I care for the welfare of my precious powerballs!).
Nevertheless, should it be decided to launch a dual run scoreboard, I will not ruin the party of course and I will submit a score even if it is not as good as expected.

Concentration? You weren't really concentrating very hard at the start of your 19689 90s run, and you were easily hitting 14000 rpm with your right hand. And yes, you have a different grip with each hand, but you keep your arms down by your side for each one, and I think it's arm position that's important.Originally Posted by Akis
...I have every confidence that you could get over 28000 on your first attempt, and that 29000 would be attainable.
Prove me wrong!![]()
And thank you very much...I finally found something in which I can excell and Adrena1in begs our powerball champion to kick me out of 1st position :-(Originally Posted by Adrena1in
Mammy!!! They are teasing me here :-P :-P

P.S. Man, I am so pissed that I want to make a 28000+ run..right now!! :-) Haha :-P :-P (Just kidding ;-) )
Nice to hear that I could impress you. That stimulates me enormously. Looking forward to posting my first 27000+ video, then 27500+ and then the ultimate goal 28000+ ;-)Originally Posted by Akis
And you are right about the technique thing. But believe it or not, but my single-handed techniques are also different left and right (left is wrist-rotate technique and right a wrist-twist technique). The funny thing is, however, that when doing dual powerball runs, my techniques become the same, being the wrist rotate technique. Still I just can't get my fastest hand (left hand) getting close to its record. Strange, but true.
Yes, we fullly understand that you are protecting your powerballs with your life :-PDue to the above actually, my powerballs would rather get bashed and devastated during the effort (and I believe you realize how much I care for the welfare of my precious powerballs!).

Let's wait until Enda decided to put the dual-run scoreboard online. Hopefully, I will have a good score by then, so that I can resist your scores a little bit better ;-)
Best regards,
The Force
EDIT: I now start to doubt about my dual-run techniques...it might very well be a wrist-twist technique for both hands, which better explains why my right hand scores higher most of the times.
Your wish is my command :-)Originally Posted by The Force

Very nice!!!...I will see to posting my score soon.

P.S. And I ask everybody politely to make a dual run video too, so that the scoreboard fills up quickly![]()
Thanks for putting my score online so soon.
Would it perhaps be a good idea to advertise this new scoreboard in the scoreboard comments below?
