[QUOTE="Shaneus, post: 142563, member: 204"] You're crazy. I can do it on my High Speed and pulled it off several times during my visit to Texas on a couple of WPC/95 machines and newer Stern ones. Bang-on. If you just tap the flipper, it shouldn't go all the way up unless you hold it. There's something else I've noticed either as a result or is a symptom of the above, and that's if you look really carefully at the flipper when you engage it and let go, you can see several frames of animation when you disengage it, but when hitting it it only seems to go from off to on with no intermediate movements. The flipper should be treated like a car's accelerator... when you put your foot down the RPMs don't go from 0 to 8000 instantaneously, just like they don't go from redline to 0 when you release the pedal. Same should go for flippers. And it shouldn't be that hard to do :( [/QUOTE]
