They were a fad last year at mine. They had a team for it. It was pretty gay actually.

I can do them in about 15 minutes. It was a fad for like a day when a few I guess nerds brought them in. Its definitly a skill worth learning. It definty impresses girls, just as long as your not a geek too. And if anyone asks just be like I figured it out rather then saying you went online and read the instructions.

There huge at my school now for some reason. I was just thinking about making a thread about this. The kids are crazy at it too. Basically every kid that has one does them in under a minute or something, I don't feel like wasting my time.
