	XPXH is a term used to refer to the use of multiple pens or hands. While Multipen isn't covered extensively in this page, the notation for multiple pens will also be included in this section as it still falls into 2H. As there are many variables to take into account, XPXH notation is notoriously difficult to design neatly. Most of the ideas presented were developed in the FPSB laboratoire in mid-2009 by Lindor, but some others are from RPD.

	==~~2H1P~~==		==Transfers==
	~~===Unlinked 2H /~~ Transfers~~===~~		Transfers involve a 1H trick or linkage where the motion is continued to the other hand, which effectively transfers the pen in a purposeful manner.
	~~This category encompasses everything that isn't linked 2h.~~

	~~====Manual Reposition====~~
	~~The non-dominant hand is used to grab the pen in the middle of the~~ trick ~~before repositioning it to another section~~ or ~~slot in~~ the ~~dominant hand. Anything under this category are mostly spinless. This~~ is ~~the lowest depth of Unlinked 2H.~~

	~~====2H Assisted====~~
	~~Tricks done that are assisted with~~ the other hand.

	==~~==Transfers==~~==		==Fingercrossings==
	~~Tricks are started in one hand and~~ the ~~motion continues to the other hand~~.		2H Fingercross involves overlapping fingers of both hands on top of each other. This is a very broad concept that covers every trick that involves interlacing the fingers.

	==~~==Direct 2h Translations==~~==		==Simultaneous Tricks==
	1H tricks ~~where the fingers in the main variant is replaced by fingers of the other hand~~.		Simultaneous tricks involve performing 2 separate tricks within one single motion.

	==~~==Simultaneous Tricks====~~		==Fingerstuck / Linked 2H=
	~~2 tricks are done at the same time in both hands within one single motion.~~		Fingerstuck both hands to be linked by the fingers in some form. Essentially, this allows both hands to operate as one.

	~~====Visual Effect====~~
	~~An alternative utilization of the other hand where instead of directly using it for mechanics, they are used for adding visual effect of tricks.~~

	~~====~~Linked 2H~~===~~=
	~~This category is also known as~~ Fingerstuck~~, which requires~~ both hands to be linked by the fingers in some form. Essentially, this allows both hands to operate as one.

	As more fingers are linked together, movement becomes more limited which adds another level of restriction to 2H. However, it also opens up more positions to be utilized and it is up to the spinner to navigate through those positions.

	~~Another thing we may want to write down is a second or third pen. For that, we can extend the apostrophe idea to dot notation:~~

	~~.’ = Second Pen~~
	~~.’’ = Third Pen~~
	~~1 Pen in 12 and 1 Pen in 23 = 1.2; 2.'3~~

	~~The semicolon is used only to separate both parts. In the case that each mod is doing a different trick it may not be necessary to notate both, but only what’s relevant to that trick.~~
	~~Using apostrophes here can make notation hard to read, so another option would be to use a different symbol (preferably one resembling a dot) for the second pen, for example:~~

	~~º = Second Pen~~
	~~Thus, previous slot can be 1.2; 2º3~~

	There is no well established xpxh notation, so this is a matter of personal preference. In the case of completely independent 2p2h (one mod in the left hand and another in the right with no exchanges) the easiest thing is not to use any apostrophes but rather to write each breakdown in separate lines:

	~~MIA 23-12 > PS-PU Fl inv shadow ~> Fl TA > PU-PD IA ~ inv sonic rev~~
	~~MIA rev 23-T1 > PS-PD sonic T1-T3>34~~

	~~To give information about the simultaneity of each trick, a table could also be used.~~
