Swuck

Fratleym performing a Swuck in the 23-3 slot

First performed by Fratleym, Swuck is a fingerswitch trick from a non-palm slot immediately to the palm.

The main variation involves having the pen goes from being held between two fingers to being held between those fingers and the palm, with a charge rev motion. Afterwards, there is a direction change and the mod changes fingers again, now going to Tf.

History

The trick was popularized by Fratleym, who did it twice in his combo for the first round of Pen Spinning World Tournament 2009. Afterwards, a discussion thread was opened in the FPSB laboratory. There, Fratleym named it swuck, a word formed as a combination of switch + stuck (fingerswitch and fingerstuck). This was a bit controversial, as fingerstuck was used when two fingers remained together during an extended period of a combo and Lindor argued that there was no fingerstuck in a swuck.

Formal Notation

swuck 23-P3 = (PS) charge rev 23 ~> (PD-PS) fingerswitch 23-P3
swuck around 12-12 = swuck 12-P2 > IA P2-12
