Done! Well deserved.

You got my vote! Keep up the great work.

Voted too.

I'm looking forward to your part 2 of the nudging video.

Likewise got my vote, I love your content.

OP -

Thank you for the videos. Just got into pinball and they been incredibly helpful. Glad to see you here to say thanks. (don't have a YouTube acct)

Voted for you

Very nice as always. I’m going to rewatch it and study it a bit closer.

Keep in mind that two tilt warnings is a feature of modern pins and can be adjusted. Some older pins have zero tilt warnings.

Dude that thumbnail is perfect

Unreal… so good!!

Fantastic! I have a lot of friends who are new to the hobby and I’m constantly sending these videos. Nudging is the only thing I do well (out of necessity).

Here's a virtual high-five for your comedy chops -- that slo-mo stare during the "wicked shimmy" section is gold. Just part of what makes these so well done. Nice job!

Yes! The devil eyes

I love the style in these videos. The knowledge is great too but I love how you shoot and edit as well.

Here's a request, can you talk about the range of the flipper and the area it covers? What I mean is when is it better to flip, not flip, or hold the flipper up to prevent a center drain? Is it always a bad idea to hit the flippers at the same time? Does that increase the chances of the ball going between them? I'm interested in how the flipper covers the center in different positions. For example is the flipper further into the center lane when it's at the top position, bottom or halfway through the stroke? Or is it the same?

I love all these videos and advice. My only problem is I always figure out what I’m supposed to do a second too late.

Awesome I can't wait to see it.

This is so key, for me anyways. Every time I let my guard down and get lazy, assuming that ball won’t jump into the outlane, shooting at a scoop on the fly instead of getting the ball under control, shooting half assed into areas I know are dangerous, and the ball drains I call myself a lazy P.O.S. haha.

Also Twippy voted for the fist time.

I just pulled off my first nudge pass and it felt so good. I have Iron Maiden and get a fiar number of center drains off the mummy captive ball and center ramp so this should really help if I can get good at it.

Great choices! My wife and I own both and they’re some of our favorites.

We both really enjoy your videos and voted for you on your twipy nomination. Absolute best pinball tutorials on the entire internet. Keep ‘em coming!

Awesome Stranger things is my favorite. Beat it for the first time a few weeks ago. Can’t wait to see the videos.

Thank you for your video.
Nudging is something I’ve done for ages but I have never done it in a preventative method as you’re describing. And I’m still having troubles with that.
But also I have never shaken the ball out of the outlanes (amazing! Actually works!) and I’ve also never done the slapping which works incredibly well.

Thank you!
Now my games gets a hell of a beating!

Also your videos made me start to pass the ball between the flippers more seriously.

I love these!

Stranger Things is going to teach you a few new tricks lol.
Looking forward to Gz videos

Keep up the awesome work!
Also, any abe flips merch? I want a hoodie with your logo

Theres a massive internet store by the name of redbubble who prints designs from artists and gives them a small commission. Stubby holder, t shirt, hat, poster it doesn't matter i don't think.

They have thousands of pinball shirts etc, great service and delivery within days. I shop there for shirts all the time.

Not sure exactly how it works, but you don't have to do anything and you get paid, so that sounds ok.

From now on, any time a seller list his games as having very low plays,I think he should also reveal how many times its been slapped.

Just the balls?

Did you win a Twipy? First time voter because of you!!!!

Maybe this is covered in your videos somewhere (I just discovered this thread) - but when is it best to double flip?

I see pros double flip saving the ball from STDM all the time, but still far from perfecting this myself.

I'd love to see a video on this. This is one of my banes. It seems that when I do, I can save about half the savable balls. And when I don't, I seem to save about half of the savable balls (they are different).

My other problem is I move between eras of games quite a bit. So I constantly mistime my double flips.

And to be specific, I don't mean chimping both flippers. I mean that timing where a ball is close to coming down the middle, and you just time it so that the first flipper nicks the ball just far enough so the second flipper (delayed a bit) comes up and just nicks it as well, deflecting it back up, or to the tip of the first flipper enough to be hit back into play. I guess commonly referred to as a dig.

That sounds like you want the slap save video...

Yeah that seems to be it. Here's a deadflip example which seems to be the same technique

(right at about 3:48)

Cool!

Yeah. Definitely it is. You can hear the slap-slap on the cabinet

Humm I have only watched PaPa and you on YouTube

Thanks again!!! Best videos period!!

I voted for you. It was great to meet you in person at Fulda! Thanks again for the great pinball video content to help people learn to play better. I continue sharing them with my local pinball community.

Like all your other videos your work and effort you put into is just amazing

Have you done a video on stage flipping?

Thank you for the great videos! The new one with a shorter introduction to multiple skills (as shown on the screen in the picture) is really good for an info display like this. We have set up Chrome to cycle between that video, a list of upcoming tournaments, and the IFPA player ranking list for Norway.

(The screen supports touch input, but we currently have that disabled until we find a way to make the system cope better with drunks who decide to make it show funny memes and such... )
