which powerball??
-
I didn't think to check REI. Got mine at Big 5 for $20, and ended up having to order the docking station, since I can't get it spinning quick enough with the shoestring. LOL.
-
Hmmm, I'm liking the idea of the autostart one… Wouldn't need to purchase a docking station.
-
There should be a little hole in the inner ball that the end of the shoestring feeds into. I have never had issues getting mine spinning fast enough with the string. I ahve also played with getting it spinning just with the thumb flick. I cannot do it with one flick but I can get it spinning.

@ sensualscimitar – I had a toy that had similar mechanism as the self starting one which hair/dust tends to get stuck more often so I went with the normal one. (even with the lifetime warranty…I’d like to avoid using it if possible…lol)
I really hope the powerball can help me increase some wrist strength!!
-
I manged just a few minutes ago to get it started with the string. Yay! Think I have a new take with me anywhere toy https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

Whichever one you get you will be certain to see fantastic changes in your grip strength which will have a major impact on your pole work!
I love using a powerball and caught onto how to get it spinning very easily but I've seen some of my students have a very difficult time getting it started. Although I've never been able to start it with the thumb flick.
-
btw, should I bother with the speed meter on the NSD ball? I was looking at the basic model since it still gives a lot of toque and has a high RPM, but it's cheaper.
-
I wouldn't bother with the speed meter. Mine has it but I don't use it, I can feel if I need to spin it faster or slower.

Thanks Rachel. Just ordered my ball! YAY! Hopefully this will help with my wrist tendonitis.
-
This thing is addicting to use. I keep picking it up and using it.
-
I ordered it with the quick starter, so hopefully it will be simple to start and use! 🙂 I'm excited…maybe I could play with it at work…
-
i picked up a dynaflex from the vitamin shoppe near my house i use it at work and when im watching tv. the results from it are amazing!!!!!
-
My powerball just came. My dogs got all interested and one started barking at it. The weirdo…
-
LOL Sensual, my cat just looks at mine with wide eyes and then will roll over and go back to sleep. Been slacking on using it a tad bit. hehehe. They're thinking mommy got them a new toyhttps://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

Yeah, I'm sure if I turned it on and put it on the floor they'd be all over it.
