just got my revfire and DD challenged me to a stationary spin rate contest.
i got 16 DD got 11. Bucket dad wins!

ok. but that was just stationary spin using nothing but the wrist.
I haven't had the chance to try full pitch yet.

I would think a full pitch with good push off, arm circle and I/R would add to that number.
is this right or is the spin rate based solely on the wrist?

Sucker.....i did the same thing and DD1 was faster, more accurate and spinnier. DD2 was just spinnier. To answer your question though it is not just wrist. The spin is a result of many variables from what I can tell. For instance. Older DD spins 17ish on average with a 4 seam. And 14ish with a two seam.
