When I saw Trelax's thread with pics of his pinched cyber, I went out and bought one so I could try it out. I played with it in practice tonight and it is awesome.

Do you measure from the inside of the head or outside? (its fairly legal... :naughty: )
I will never pinch a head another way again. Trelax you're a genius.

It's too small, I can tell you that. By about a quarter of an inch.

Ya I realized that when I took the picture. I'll shove a pencil in it and heat it up a bit over the stove. I dont know how that happened considering I pinched it with a pencil 6.75" long in it. Hmmm at least the ball doesnt get trapped anywhere, that'd be a harder fix.
EDIT: I shoved the pencil in the back part of the sidewall on top, so the back is legal with about 1/4 inch to spare but the front is illegal. Hard to explain but I will take a picture tomorrow. If anyone understands what I'm saying, is this legal?

I know what you're saying. But I think the rule mentions that the 6.5" part (the widest opening) is measured on the front of the stick. I don't have my rule book with me, so I can't say for sure.
HA! Got you. I don't even HAVE a rule book! Sucker...

That is work, though. I am totally not into that.
OFF TOPIC: The song "Relax" by Frankie Goes to Hollywood is way more graphic and suggestive than I expected it to be.

Off topic? Why would that be off topic? :imparied:
I don't see what's so special about pinching that way, I mean it does the same thing and you're still boiling the head.

Your head looks kinda warped to be... but other then that nice job.

Its just tipped to the left because the pocket is under the sidewall. Trust me I made sure it was perfectly symmetrical

Wait are you sure it's symmetrical? :chuckle:
Thats the best way to pinch a stick, been doing it for as long as I've been playing.
