A co-worker loaned me his recently. I hated it too when Wes showed it to me, but I think I have it figured it out.

That thing is soo much fun, only took a few tries before I really got it going. If I had a commute to work I'd do it the entire way.
Screw you guys. I'm going bowling.

It's a great warm up when your hands are cold. The secret is to wobble it, not wave it!

The gripsaver is pretty good. The rubberbands seem to be a double edged sword because they seem to work nicely but they are a little annoying to put on.

Those things are cool. It is tricky to use one until you get used to it though. I could never start it without the pull string, but have seen people who can.

Just flick the inner ball and it's easy to get started.
