A riddle...

A kiss by Eno if someone can tell me what this is... It was THE hottest thing during my new-years eve-party... apart from my girlfriend that is...  :P  ;)

It sure is! Why don't you sent a private mail to Eno to claim your price!  ;)  ;D

Now, let me tell you one thing... these suckers burn! They do! I got about 10.000 RPM on it, but it caused a burnmark on my pinky... as it did on my father's hand too...  ;D

hey Kris, I have one of those myself.
The first time i used it i went overboard and ended up with a blister on my pinkie finger, but after I let it go down I haven't had any problems since. I've also found I get better results holding it upside down, you just have to be damn careful not to get your palm in contact with the the ball. ;)
Whats your best result so far? with my left its 10,120 with my right 10,430. Ironic considering i'm left handed ::)

its basically a gyroscope.
The idea is to spin it with your wrist, the harder you spin the more resistance you get, and eventually the aim is to be spinning it so fast it barely appears your wrist is moving.
