If you can do tricks with it, it can sleep long enough. And, nobody has a perfect throw. Everybody needs some work on their throw, just some more than others.

It sleeps longer than you need it to. That is all you need to know.

The truth is that there is always room for improvement in your throw, but that’s not important. What is important is that your throw is strong enough to sleep through the tricks you like to do.

I’ll be nice and answer his question. ;D I have gotten mine to sleep (sleep, not spin) for probably about 5 minutes. Spin time while doin’ tricks I have never measured, but as these other folks say, it’s plenty.
