avfc's scores

[avfc]

I thought i'd make a thread to post my scores rather than just write them down on paper :D. Just had a session tonight, i broke my 30s record for each hand. RH from 4582 to 4708, LH from 4508 to 4521. I was close to breaking my other records with a RH 10529 and a LH 10118.

[avfc]

I've recieved my metal powerball today :D. I've had a few goes on it and my record so far is 7844.

im sure you will break them next time just keep doing 30s

thats a pretty good start after its warn in you should be aiming for about 8k5

[avfc]

thanks, how often do you think my scores should start increasing?

[bman]

thanks, how often do you think my scores should start increasing?
its hard to say for the first two weeks i got a new score almost every other day but you will find that the better you get the harder it gets,now days im lucky if i get a new record a month but i know that if i keep practicing and doing 30s i will get new ones eventually.

so basically don't expect new ones all the time but as long as you keep training they will come

[avfc]

Yeh ok. Also i've only just noticed your first post in this thread because we posted at basically the same time lol and i am going to start doing more 30s. I'm quite suprised how quiet the metal actually is, up until about 6-7k you can hardly hear it, its almost like on a plastic at about 2-3k :confused:

yeah it is really quiet at first and also you should try to keep it spinning for about 10 minutes switching hands when you need to,this will help to wear it in and give you a really good work out

[avfc]

alright thanks, at the moment i've just been doing speed runs on each hand. I'll probly try spin it for a bit longer later tonight

[avfc]

I've just had another go and got 8451 :D

[bman]

well done did you try any plastic spins after

[avfc]

No i forgot tbh but next time after i use my metal im going to try a few speeds with my plastic

[avfc]

I've just tried some speeds with my metal but can't seem to beat 8451 which i got with my left hand :eek: I got a few 8.3k's, i then tried the plastic and got a 10234 lh and a 10497 rh.

[bman]

well done with your new lh score and just give it time and rest and you will soon get some new records all good work keeping your hand even

[avfc]

thanks, yeh im trying to get my rh and lh as close together as i can

[bman]

thanks, yeh im trying to get my rh and lh as close together as i can
thats good because it will really help when doing 2h endurance

[avfc]

Just had a session today and broke my metal score, it's now 8475. Then on my plastic i got a 10281 rh and a 10355 lh. My 250hz pro also now sounds really squeaky when i start it up and when it slows down :confused: does anyone know why?

[bman]

well done and normally when i get new balls they squeak a bit

[avfc]

thanks, does it still squeak after it's been worn in?

[bman]

thanks, does it still squeak after it's been worn in?
nope it stops after a while

[avfc]

ok cheers.
Im not sure why but my lh scores seem to be higher than my rh scores lately and i've broke my lh score each time in my last 2 sessions but haven't had a new rh score for a while.

[bman]

ok cheers.

some times peoples dominant hand isn't there fastest and some times one will be faster then the next day the other ones faster,like if you look back through videos of akis some times he breaks his record with his right and then some times its with he left

[avfc]

alright, i may try and adjust my technique a little bit because the way i hold the ball with my rh feels different when im going for a speed record to my lh

[avfc]

Just broke my metal scores with a rh 8868 and a lh 8565 :D

[Koman]

Great progress man :)

[avfc]

Just had a pretty bad session. i warmed up on the metal and got a rh 8439, lh 8137, then went to plastic and got a rh 30s 4533, lh 4449, then a rh 10366, lh 10050

hey common that's not a bad session give it a couple days and try again its not always easy when you try to restart

edit:also try doing some mid speed 30s so that you can practice and regain your technique

[avfc]

Thanks, im going to try again tomorrow to see if i can get any better scores

[bman]

Thanks, im going to try again tomorrow to see if i can get any better scores
ok then and remember to warm up properly and dont rush in to it do 30s and rest for about 2 mins then go for speed

[avfc]

Had a good rh session tonight, not such a good lh. I broke my rh 30s with 4805, lh i got 4439, metal rh 8561, lh 8068, plastic rh 10461, lh 9865. My arms are aching now :)

[bman]

nice one keep it up and you will be heading for 11k

well done and good luck next time, also remember to rest

[avfc]

also remember to rest

Thanks, i dont think my left hand had enough time to rest from yesterday because i just couldn't seem to get that good scores, and normally my rh and lh are basically the same

[bman]

Thanks, i dont think my left hand had enough time to rest from yesterday because i just couldn't seem to get that good scores, and normally my rh and lh are basically the same
im sure next time your lh will be up to speed mine always goes up and down

[avfc]

Just had a small session with my metal, got a new lh record of 8607 and a rh 8701, which i think i could of beaten if i carried on

there pretty good scores well done and i expect some plastic improvements to follow

[avfc]

Thanks, i want to try and get 11k soon. Not sure how long it will take me though :(

[bman]

if you have proper sessions with the right rest it shouldn't take to long and when you do get it you will probably wonder what the fuss was about

[avfc]

After going to the gym earlier i had a session and got a new rh 10741 :D

[bman]

After going to the gym earlier i had a session and got a new rh 10741 :D
very nice i hope you can continue to improve

[avfc]

Thanks i have sort of changed my technique by trying to make smaller circles and it seems to work with my right just still adjusting to it with my left.

[Koman]

Glad to hear it worked for you :)

[avfc]

Not powerballed for ages, so i thought i'd go for a quick speed run, got rh 8754 lh 8625 metal and rh 10517 and lh 10093

[Nick the Greek]

hey mate i am 14 years old just be patient and find a lot of free time to get spins.

i can tell you my tecnique if you want to:)

[avfc]

yeah, i don't really spin as much as i used to. So i haven't had a proper session in ages.

[avfc]

I haven't touched my powerballs since November, and that was only for a quick spin. But a mate at school was talking about getting a powerball so i showed him mine a few days ago and today i thought i'd have a go and see what scores i could get and i broke 3 of my records :D

RH 250hz - 10741 to 10840
RH 350hz - 8868 to 9124
LH 350hz - 8625 to 8863

Congrats! Metal scores have more to do with strength then technique, you must be getting stronger. :cool:

thanks, yeh i've been hitting the gym lately so that must be why :)

[Installed]

Same thing for me dude. At this age you'll get stronger automatically but working out helps. ;) Have any videos posted of you powerballing?

[avfc]

Yeh, i think i had the technique right but just lacked in strength, might start getting back into powerballing to see if i can carry on improving and nope, no videos yet i'm afraid lol

[Installed]

Yeah don't stop powerballing but put working out first, you'll be better off in the long run. Unless you are an extremely scrawny 15 yr old I think you cando a lot better. ;) 15 year olds have gotten 14000rpm+ before... not to make you feel bad, just to make you practice more. :) But of course it's up to you, powerballing is about fun anyhow.

[avfc]

yeh thanks for the advice ;), and no i'm not some scrawny kid :p

[avfc]

Just had a quick spin when i got in from school and 2 new records:
RH 10906
LH 10456

hoping to get 11k next time :)

[Installed]

Cool! :cool: Quick spins won't always do such wonders though, you ought to be having some good length practice sessions a few times a week.

[boazam]

very nice!!! Im betting on over 11k for you this week.

[avfc]

thanks guys, yeh i used to have frequent sessions each week but i've been quite busy lately. I think i'm going to try and get back into it now i'm starting to make some progress :)

[RyuKa]

Good progression here.
Enjoy the flashing counter :D

[avfc]

lol thanks, just been gym tonight so i'm going to have a few days rest and then go for 11k at the weekend :D

[neutron]

You will get 11k this weekend and you know it... ;)

sorry mate only just seen your comment and iv already had a session this morning and my arms are aching so i don't think ill be doing it again today :)

and i got 11k woohoo :D:D

RH:
metal speed - 9042
plastic 30s - 4732
plastic speed - 11061

LH:
metal speed - 8916
plastic 30s - 4538
plastic speed - 10804

very happy with scores overall, breaking all my lh scores and getting 11k rh :D

[Installed]

Congrats!! Why don't you get on the live competition and hang out, there's a couple guys spinning now. :)

[boazam]

welll done!

[avfc]

thanks guys :) going for 12k next :cool:

[avfc]

just had a quick spin and got another 11k, only 11002 though, and got a new rh record of 9254 for the metal

[Installed]

That's good to hear man! Try those longer sessions, maybe a hot mode will come and you won't believe the scores on your counter. ;)

[Adrena1in]

just had a quick spin and got another 11k,

Well done, but if you want to improve you'll need to have more than a "quick spin". Powerball sessions of 10 or 15 minutes up to an hour or two are where the improvements come from. ;)

[avfc]

ok, thanks for the advice :)

[avfc]

just had a session and got 2 11.2ks :D, first i got 11226 and after that i got 11250 :D and a new lh 30s record 4622

[Adrena1in]

Nice going! :)

Work those 30s scores hard and you'll be topping 12k in no time! :cool:

[avfc]

Ok thanks, i've started to include more 30s into my session now, so hopefully 12k soon :D

[avfc]

Just had a session and broke my 30s records for both hands (rh 4869 & lh 4731)
no new speed records :( but they were close - rh 11197 & lh 10764

[boazam]

very good!! do you think spinnign the metal powerball helps you with the scores on the 250hz?

[avfc]

i haven't used it for the last few sessions but i used to use it to warm up with, and after that the plastic seems much lighter. It's also good for a nice workout, so you can really feel your muscles aching :)

[Installed]

Way to go, great session! And your speed scores were right up there too so no need to worry, you'll have a new rpm record soon. :cool:

[avfc]

thanks, yeh i was hoping for a speed record today, but nevermind ill aim for one next time :)

[avfc]

just had a session and broke my speed records :D but only by 2rpm and then 6 more for rh (11252 and 11258) and my lh a 10950 and 10857. So im aiming for 11k lh next time and hopefully 11.5k rh

[Installed]

Well done. :)

[avfc]

no new speed records today :mad:
my rh scores keep hovering around 11250 each session, today i got 11241 and a 4818 30s
I tried a 90s run today aswell, it's the 1st one i've done apart from when i first got my ball and i got 13555 not sure if thats any good?

Edit: Oh yeh, i forgot to mention that my powerball is vibrating constantly untill about 10k and then it stops and when it slows down, just before it stops spinning it screeches. Does anyone know why this is?

[avfc]

Just had a metal session, broke my rh record 3 times 9277, 9315 and then a 9534 :D lh wasn't very good though, best i got was 8870. After that i went for a rh speed record and got 11298 which beat my old record by 40rpm lol

[boazam]

very nice!! are you tring with the same technique or tring diferrent ones?

[avfc]

thanks, im just trying the same technique

[Installed]

You did it! :D Don't forget to take breaks. No more than three hard sessions a week in my opinion.

[avfc]

Thanks, i'm going for an only metal session tomorrow as i'm waiting for new parts for my plastic. Then i'm going to take a break for a week and see if i can come back and smash my records :D

[Nick the Greek]

well done bro keep it up ;)

PS:I am still better that you and you are 1 year older than me XD

[avfc]

lol thanks, don't worry i'll soon catch you up :p

[Installed]

well done bro keep it up ;)

PS:I am still better that you and you are 1 year older than me XD

Now now, there will always be someone better than you so play nice. :p I think there was a 14 yr old here awhile back who got 14k, there's something to inspire you. :D

[Nick the Greek]

yaa but i am 51 kg and 1.68 m height...

really thin!

[avfc]

it was ESL wasn't it installed?

[Installed]

Yes I'd say you must be lightweight to go fast in a cart! When I was your age I was around 57-59kgs and I was pretty skinny but taller than most. Now I'm the same height and 10kgs more lol.

Yeah that's the name! Couldn't think of it. He may have actually been 13 I'm not positive on that, but he was a hefty boy.

[avfc]

yeh i was just looking at a thread he created about rpm/age and he posted 13765/13 so he may well of reached 14k by 13 :eek:

[Nick the Greek]

Yes I'd say you must be lightweight to go fast in a cart!

you mean kart?
no you shouldnt be lighweight,cause we have a weight limit for that and i am under that and i have to put on weight round the seat so i loose time from that.

[avfc]

just had metal session, broke 9k lh :D (9039, 9216, 9231)
no new rh records but got a 9464 and 9452, it seems like i can't get it any higher because it keeps slipping which stops me :(

[Nick the Greek]

if it keeps slipping try washing your hands before spinnig it helps a lot!
:)

[avfc]

thanks, i do that already but i think i might need to wash the support band and see if that helps

[Installed]

you mean kart?
no you shouldnt be lighweight,cause we have a weight limit for that and i am under that and i have to put on weight round the seat so i loose time from that.
Oops my apologies, I'll remember to say kart from now on! :rolleyes: How much weight do you need to gain I'm curious? More live weight (as opposed to dead weight) will help you manuever better won't it?

Good progress on the metal avfc, always remember to keep your hands and the ball very clean. Before each session remove the grip band and wash it then wipe the sphere down too. A very important tip is to make sure you are using non-moisturizing soap! Find a soap that will absolutely dry your hands out.

[avfc]

ok thanks for the advice ;)

[Nick the Greek]

i need to be 165 kg total,85 kg is the kart + 51 kg myself.Remove that from 165kg and what you get is the extra weight i need to put around the seat :D

[Installed]

Man they sure allow for some fat kids!

[Nick the Greek]

Man they sure allow for some fat kids!

oh yea!
we loose weight during the race thats why F1 racers are 60 kg hehe:p

[Nick the Greek]

as i told you,try some 30's and 90's.

[avfc]

ok will do in my next session :cool:

[avfc]

I have just replaced my old rotor with a new one and was just wondering how long will it take to "wear in"? because i can only just get it over 10k at the moment :(

[Adrena1in]

Sometimes 10 or 20 minutes, sometimes a few hours, but don't worry, you'll see the scores rising up again soon. :)

[avfc]

ok thanks adrena1in :)
i'll try and wear it in today ready for a session tomorrow :D and hopefully should get some new scores :p

[avfc]

Just had a gooood session:
broke 5k 30s! RH 5042, LH 4788 :D
new rh speed record - got 11240, 11167 and then a 11441 :D
highest lh was 10647 :(
tried a bh 90s and got 14146 :)

[Adrena1in]

That's with the new rotor is it? Well done, looks like a race to 12k is on between you and Nick the Greek! ;)

[avfc]

Yeh that's with the new rotor, i spent about an hour yesterday trying to wear it in and i could only just get it above 10k :mad: and then today after i tried a 30s i got an 11.2k with it straight away :eek:. Haha yeh we are both close to 12k now :D

[Nick the Greek]

nice scores!i am going to do 12k first nuah nuah :p:D:D

[avfc]

haha you have a 200rpm head start aswell :p
may the best man win ;) lol

[boazam]

I am waiting for you both at the 12.5k then we will race to the 13K:cool:

[avfc]

ok but your 1000+rpm ahead of me so you might be waiting a while :(

[boazam]

Im curently taking my time with the HS score.

[Installed]

Gotta love competitions, they're fun to watch and even better to be included in. Reminds me of the good ol' days when me and Pete and some other guys were fighting for the top spot. That's the real fun of powerball I think.


I am waiting for you both at the 12.5k then we will race to the 13K:cool:
Taking your time eh? :p

[avfc]

haha yeh, it makes me want to reach 12k even more :D

[avfc]

new rh 30s 5060 :) lh was only 4777 :(
bh 90s was just 5rpm under my record 14141 :eek:
highest rh so far is 11199, lh 10610 :mad:

[Nick the Greek]

well done!!!!;)

[avfc]

thanks nick, but i was hoping for a much higher speed score :(
lol mainly to try and beat you :p

[Nick the Greek]

try 90's to see if you can beat me ;)

[avfc]

haha i did and only got 14.1k :( i think its because i waste loads of time swapping hands :o

[Nick the Greek]

dont worry.you will get it up.!!!!!
New 90's score!!!!:D

[avfc]

new rh 30s 5113 and lh 4812 :D
best rh speed i got was 11320 & 11316, lh 10815 but no new records :(

[Installed]

Good job man, I know powerball is exciting and hard to stay away from but I might help your scores to take a few days' break. Your muscles need time to recover.

[avfc]

ok cheers :)

[avfc]

arghhhh :mad: was just going for a 30s run and instead of pressing the button to reset the timer i pressed the function button by mistake so it didn't count my run and it felt like a really good run aswell

[Nick the Greek]

I have that problem with the metal!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When i do 30's when i change hand it resets and goes back to 30's!!!!
it happens 99%!

[avfc]

just got 9532 with the metal - 2rpm off my record :( lol

[Nick the Greek]

no worries....

i did 3 30's GRIPPING,scores around 4400 then 1 90's and i did almost 10K speed run!

try that right now ;)

[avfc]

just gave my hands a wash with some fairy liquid and got 9772 :eek:

edit: went for lh and got 9383!!

[avfc]

the race is on to 10k now nick :p

[Nick the Greek]

you are going to catch me :p
Well done!:)

I am gonna rest these days and i will come with10k scores !

Love comps!;)

[avfc]

haha thanks mate, me too :D
when i see you get new records, it motivates me to try and get a new one :p

[Nick the Greek]

I know powerball is exciting and hard to stay away from but I might help your scores to take a few days' break.

I hate staying away from powerball!!!!!!!
I W-A-N-T T-O P-O-W-E-R-B-A-L-L!!!!!:D:D:D:D:D

[Waukeen]

Same here lol, but i'll have to calm it down a bit, the blister is very close i think, but at lest i broke my record :)

So now, a little rest will be welcome, i'll just do some endurance run at mid-speed :p

[avfc]

second spin of my metal session and a 9798 already:D

[Installed]

Nice! Maybe you'll get higher.

And some advice, don't get too busy posting on the forum during a session but rather focus only on your session.

[avfc]

you were right installed, 9953!! :D so close to 10k :(

edit: didn't see the last part of your post, i don't usually but i thought i would post my new score as part of my rest

Well done!;)
Maybe I will buy a heavy metal next week:)

[avfc]

cheers, go for it mate :) you won't regret it ;)

[avfc]

i was doing a metal session and was getting quite low scores, so i went for a plastic run and got 11482 and then went back onto the metal and got 9982 :D
not massive improvements but it was still nice to see the counter flashing :) hopefully next time it flashes on metal it will be 10k :cool:

[ZenDen]

Good work!Yes, next time 10k will be!;)

[Installed]

Records are always exciting!

[avfc]

best i got was 5042 30s, 11378 plastic and 9740 metal speed :o

[Nick the Greek]

any 90's???

i told you to do lot of time ago cause they will boost your speed but nobody hears me i am really dissapointed :(

[avfc]

nope sorry, i was doing a metal session but just went for one plastic speed and 30s. once i break 10k metal i am going to focus on plastic more, especially 90s to catch you! ;)

[boazam]

you should rest. the gym can realy make you hands tired.

[avfc]

just finished my session
started with a 14k 90s
plastic rh 11432 and a 11498 :D lh 10803
metal rh i got 3 9.7ks but no 10k just yet :( and 2 lh 9.1ks

Endure, master Wayne. You'll have 10k yet. ;)

haha thanks mate, i'm going to rest metal for a bit and just have a plastic session to see what scores i get

[bman]

haha thanks mate, i'm going to rest metal for a bit and just have a plastic session to see what scores i get
Sounds like a good idea see if you can crack 12k then go back to metal

[avfc]

yeh cheers, i've got my GCSE's starting today so i need to try and find some time to make a session :(

[boazam]

Try multitasking :D
learn for your GCSE's and powerball at the same time, its good for you coordination.

[avfc]

haha, don't think so :p it would be too loud for me to concentrate! :rolleyes:

[Nick the Greek]

what's that GCSE ? :confused: :rolleyes:

[avfc]

exams at the end of school ;)

[avfc]

finished my second exam today :) next ones not until thursday so ill try and have a session on saturday :cool:

[ZenDen]

My congratulations on breaking 11,5k!;)

[Nick the Greek]

by the way did you try any 90's? with that speed i am sure you will smash it!:)

[boazam]

Very good, go for 12K now!!

[avfc]

thanks guys :)
Nick, i didn't this time because i was focusing on 30s as it's improved each time in my last 2 sessions so i'm trying to keep it improving but i'll try some 90s next time ;) and go for 14.5k :p

[avfc]

The liquid chalk arrived today :) i tried it out but the scores weren't that good, probably because i was tired from my session earlier but it felt quite good. Anyway i washed the powerball and my hands and then i thought i'd try a 90s run and i beat my record of 14.1k with a 14445 :D so it must help with there just being a bit left on the ball

[Nick the Greek]

i beat my record of 14.1k with a 14445 :D so it must help with there just being a bit left on the ball

[avfc]

thanks a lot guys, yeah nick my endurance does need improving to catch you up :p
i keep breaking my speed records each session now :confused: not sure why though, last week i couldn't even get 11.5k, then i got 11.6k on tuesday and today 11.8k :) which means that it should be 12k next time :rolleyes:

[avfc]

Now your aim is 15k in 90s!:)

[Installed]

Awesome session man! :eek:

[avfc]

Thanks guys :)

[Nick the Greek]

very good,now aim for 15k ;)

[avfc]

very good,now aim for 15k ;)

Thanks nick, still don't know how you can get 16.4k with a similar speed to me :eek:

[boazam]

very good records!! specialy the 30s!!

[bman]

great work mate keep going for the top100 in 30s and i expect you to score a 12k+ very soon.

good luck

[avfc]

thanks :) that 30s was only rh so i'll probably try a 2h one next time and see what happens.

[Adrena1in]

If your speed is fairly even on both hands then a two-hand 30s would be a good idea. My speed and endurance are so relatively rubbish with my left hand that if I do a two-hand 30s my score will always be lower than if I do it with just my right hand.

Oh ok, thanks for that Tim. Usually my rh scores are about 1000rpm faster on average so i might just use my lh at the start for about 5-10 seconds then go all out with my rh :cool:

that's what i did to get my current record but like Tim i prefer to use just one hand plus it gives your arm that extra pump for speed

[avfc]

Had an alright session today
no new speed records :(
tried a 2h 30s and got 5543 :D
new 90s bh 14931 :D

[Nick the Greek]

very good so close to 15k :eek:

[brumtown]

very nice mate!

[ZenDen]

Well done mate! Next time 15k 90s will be yours!;)

[avfc]

thanks alot guys :)
yeah hope i can get 15k next time :cool: and maybe 12k speed :rolleyes:

[bman]

great scores definitely on your way to jumping over 12k

[avfc]

thanks ben :)

[Installed]

Good scores :) I usually never make endurance records and speed records on the same day. You could possibly make better speed if you don't do any 90s that session.

Ok thanks, once i get 15k 90s then ill stop doing them for a few sessions and see if i can get a 12k speed ;)

[avfc]

also new bh 30s record 5562 :D

[ZenDen]

Well done, avfc!

I hope you will reach 12k next time!;)

[boazam]

Very good 30s. im sure that with good warmup and HS dedicated session you will get that 12k if not higher

[avfc]

Thank you ZenDen and Boazam :)

[bman]

great scores mate you must have nick worried. I hope you and continue to push allot more.

Good luck and forget 12k because im expecting allot more

[avfc]

haha, thank you very much ben :)

[bman]

haha, thank you very much ben :)
Your welcome mate i know how much peoples comments can motivate and change the way you think about spinning, i would probably have never paid so much attention to grip if it wasnt for what Rob posted about my first upc scores and people like Tim expecting more made me want more as well.

So make sure you smash 12k then hunt down a good 5k8 30s

[Installed]

Nice work. ;) Onwards to 12k!

[avfc]

yeah i know what you mean ben, thanks once again :)
and thank you installed :)

[Nick the Greek]

great scores mate you must have nick worried. I hope you and continue to push allot more.

Good luck and forget 12k because im expecting allot more

[avfc]

I want to see his 90's first ;)
