modrod "GET A GRIP" contest update

Contest will begin March 1st.

It's a combined contest. You can spin, or mod, or both.

The contest will run until April 15th.

At that time the UPSB will vote on NINE different categories. The winner of each category will win $50.oo USD.

Here are the categories:

Best overall mod
Best use of color
Best use of modrod grips
Best use of modrod barrel
Best classic mod *
Best original mod **
Best use of grip cuts ***
Best spinner
Best modder

* A classic mod is mod where a tutorial already exists, but where modrod grips or barrel have been utilized in whole or in part - which would certainly not constitute a new mod.
** An original mod is a mod where no tutorial can be found. If there is some disagreement here, it will be settled by UPSB vote.
*** The grip that is cut does not have to be a modrod grip - of course, that might be very impressive considering they where not designed for that purpose!

RULES are going to be very simple.

#1. Has to have at least some part of a modrod grip or barrel on the mod you are displaying or spinning for it to count.

#2. One spinner or modder can only win up to two categories.

#3. As many entries allowed per contestant as they desire.

#4. There will be one vote once the contest is complete to determine the winners.

#5. By placing entry on the modrod thread, you agree to give free license to modrod for the use of all photos and videos that you post in exchange for the opportunity to win cash prizes.

#6. All spinners please include a still photo (or video close up) of the mod that you used in the video.

#7. All modders please include parts list of your mod. Lengths and weights are appreciated, but not mandatory.


These rules/categories are not 100% final, and are subject to change prior to launch of the contest.

Website Update: moved from http://www.modrod.biz to http://www.modrod.com. Currently under construction by our one and only iColor. :-)

Product Launch Update: modrod Grips and Barrel available for purchase only on PenWish.

modrod "GET A GRIP" contest update

modrod Grips and Barrels are going to go on sale starting Jan 31st, 2012.

modrod "GET A GRIP!" contest will run from March 1st to April 15th.

**Note regarding future grip colors**"

We have been receiving a lot of requests for different grip colors - especially black and white. We really appreciate the feedback, and hope that it will continue. Please send all requests via PM.

We are compiling a list of requested colors, and beginning the process to acquire new colors in the order of preference. Please be very patient during this process, because it is just that - a process. There are several steps that must be taken to actually make it happen. Unfortunately, it can be very time consuming so please be patient as we try to stock more colors.

Also please submit via PM any requested changes that you would like to see in the grip. The changes have to be minor in scope, for example: hardness, groove depth, wall thickness, etc.

We REALLY appreciate your feedback, and we hear your voice. We sincerely want to deliver to you the best materials for you to make the mods that you envision.

Please support our effort by the patronage of our products.

Thanks and Happy Spinning!!!


When the modrod pen was posted on the UPSB a few years ago, the mod was HEAVILY criticised (and rightly so!) for it's lack of serious attention to the grip design. For that reason, modrod has decided to be the first company to make grips especially designed for pen spinning. This is the first glimpse of the design.

Please post all feedback here on this thread, as we are trying to decide two things:

#1. What colors are the most desireable.

#2. Should we even have these made in the first place.


Please feel free to post your opinions, as they certianly matter!!!

(colored grips, more colors will be made soon too)

Traduction :
In my opinion, the clear grips without groves are the most likeable, looks like dr.grip and it's all good. But the groves are fine too. Otherwise, the red one and the green one are just okay, but i think, blacks ones or whites ones will be great.

In think that grips with groves are better because they are more original, they give more personality to the mod ;)
And I prefer the clear one because we can choose the color by puting an insert, and I think that a clear grip with a red insert is more beautiful than a red grip =)

The second grip is great. (Dr.Grip sub) Then I like lime green, skyblue and pink. And some grips with groves may be great (as an anyball sub).

Otherwise, the brand name on the grip could be annoying and hateful. If you want some new colors, I'd say purple, black, white, red, yellow, some fluoro grips, etc...

Je pense pas qu'ils retireront le nom de la marque sur les grips ^^'

On ne sait jamais, ou qu'ils trouvent quelque chose de moins gênant.

thanks for the nice feed back and more colors will be realeased whenproductivity sells more so modrod will have the money to make them any further questions please go ahead and post them here
