I can spin the ball for 5 min is my rec but all tell u one thing that it is easyer to spin the ball with the NEW PRO BALLS like the one that they just barely kiked out. IT TAKES PRACTICE i mean alot u need to biuld the strength in ure fingers. when i spinn it i have it land on my middle finger because it is the strongest finger.

Hope that helps

yeah it takes a lot of practice.....and what do u mean spin it with the same fingers?.....do u mean by having the ball spin on a hand and spinning it with the same one?....cuz if thats what u mean then u need to have a lot of skill being able to switch fingers with the ball

I found out after watching a tommy baker freestyle that if your right handed you spin the ball anti-clockwise on your right thumb (flip these instructions if your left handed) and use your fingers to keep it spinning so better keep pratisiting coz it aint E Z. honestly (unless u already spin it anti-clockwise). Check out the video i posted on streetball media of tommy baker look at his finger and thumb in action.

i can spin it on all five fingers and the faster u can spin it, the strength of ur fingers dont matter cuz i catch it on my pinky and it doesnt hurt, u just gotta time it correctly. the first few times can be a bitch but ull get it soon enough. try it while ur watching tv or something i got it in a day that way

I have spin the ball in my finger(am a right handed) my record is just 2 min not too long but I can control it with my left hand too.. and yeah it needs a lot of practice just practice it when your watching t.v or something that it can interest you to practice your spin..

hey
I can spin the ball on my finger for ages, and all it takes is practice but when i first started tryn to do it, i practiced at school, at home and i found the best way was when your watching tv.
iv been doing it for a while now and can spin it on all 10 fingers, change hands/fingers and spin it on a pen.
Try it on a pen its lots easyr to control and you can keep it going for longer.
