  360 Degree Harmonic 108 Kb   360-T-Normal, 360-T-Reverse 10-04-01  
  Performing a 360 Degree Reverse followed by a 360 Degree Normal, followed by a 360 Degree Reverse, and so on... This infinite combo is one of the most famous among pen spinners.  
  360 Degree Harmonic w/ Break 106 Kb   360-T-Reverse, Sonic-123-Normal, 360-T-Normal 10-04-01  
The "break" I'm referring to in the name of this combo is a Sonic. Just add a Sonic-123-Normal after the 360 Degree Reverse. By simply adding a Sonic to the previous combo, you can change the look of the combo dramatically.
  360 Degree Sonic Harmonic 75 Kb   360-T-Reverse, Sonic-123-Normal, Sonic-123-Reverse, 360-T-Normal 10-04-01  
  Just to show another variation of the possible combos that you can do with simple tricks such as Sonic and 360 Degree. Nothing really impressive here, just different.  
  Sonic Harmonic 633 Kb   Sonic-234-Normal, Sonic-123-Normal, Sonic-123-Reverse, Sonic-234-Reverse 02-01-02  
A very nice combo using the basic Sonics. Not very difficult to master once you grasp the concept of Sonic, but it's not an easy to learn either. It consists of 4 Sonics, the two standard variations and its two reverse variations. This is probably what people who like the Sonic is striving for.

  Extended 360 Degree Normal 51 Kb   360-1half-T-Normal 10-04-01  
  Here's an extension to the 360 Degree. The pen does one and a half spin (first spin around the Thumb, the rest around the index finger). The tricks involved are the 360 Degree Normal and the Index Spin. You have to fold the Thumb at the right time to transfer the momentum to the index finger.  
  Kam's 4 Loop Combo [old movie] 85 Kb   Sonic-234-Normal, Sonic-Twist-123-Normal, ThumbSpin-1half-Normal 02-22-02  
This is a combo that I have been working for years now. I finally got it to be accurate enough to catch it on video. The combo consists, in their respective order, of the following tricks: Sonic-234-Normal (variation of Sonic that start with the pen between the little finger and ring finger), Twisted Sonic Normal, and Forward 1.5. The number of spins add up to four, but I'm currently working on extended versions of this combo that can do five or more spins.
  Sonic Rise 202 Kb   Sonic-234-Normal, Sonic-123-Normal 01-20-02  
  Being one of the most basic Sonic combos, I thought I should post this combo for those who are beginning and want to experiment with combos. This is basically just a Sonic (ring and little finger variation) followed by a standard Sonic. It's just the half part of the Sonic Harmonic, but it's still pretty impressive, though.  
  Fake Triple Normal 529 Kb   360-1half-T-Normal, 360Degree-Thumb-Normal 04-28-02  
  Here's an alternative method of doing a three rotation trick (if you can't do the Thumb Spin Triple). Simply put, this is an Extended 360 Degree Normal, followed by a 360 Degree Normal. However, even though this may be a lot easier than the the Thumb Spin Triple (at least it is for me), it's still not an easy combo to perform.  
  Sonic Bust 364 Kb   Sonic-123-Normal, 360Degree-1-Normal 04-28-02  
  You would think that linking a Sonic Normal with an Index Spin Normal would make the pen change direction. Well, after experimenting with the idea and forcing the pen to stay in the same direction, I got something that looks like a double Sonic (a sonic that does two rotations).  
  Double Charge Normal New! 392 Kb   Charge-Double-123-Normal 11-20-02  
  This is a trick developed from the Charge that has two axis of rotation. The pen spins one rotation between the middle and ring fingers, one rotation between index and middle fingers, then repeats itself. This combo is basically a combination of two Charges and two Passes (passes are parts of a FingerPass).
