How do I increase my trigger speed?

I just got my first electronic gun, and since ive seen every one else shoot like crazy like 15+ balls per second and making it look so easy, what should i do to increase my trigger speed. Is there a special technique i dont know about or should i just try to keep playing so as i get better at it. Its not as easy as it looks {I have a shiny new spyder pilot.}

ok well first are you walking the trigger. it is where you use ur middle finger and pointer and motion them back and forth, tapping the trigger with each finger on every time.

now for a technique on how to get faster fingers take your pencil in skewl and practice walking that.

Basically what enal said. Walking the trigger, you move your fingers in a walking like motion on the trigger, where your middle and index finger go back and forth at different time.

Ways to practice..walk everything, pencil, pen, desk, anything. Don't forget about walking with your left hand too! Also, it will not happen overnight, so don't get frustrated.

Spyder triggers are pretty stiff too, with a heavy switch, so you probably won't hit 15bps, even with practice.

Basically what they all said, just keep practicing on your free time on everything and your fingers will get better at it. If your going to get into speedball bigtime id suggest a better gun.

Yep yep,

Im better at it with my left hand and im right hand dominate. Kinda strange eh? Its strange, the trigger switch doesnt want to fire as fast as i think my fingers are walking it, could it just be getting a better trigger switch or something?

The triggers teh guys you see are on $700+ guns and the microswitch is very very light. My gun doesnt even have a microswitch, it uses a special magnet sensor to sense when teh trigger moves.

Your spyder board- chances are it won't shoot past 13bps

IF you have a newer spyder, flip your gun upside down and look at the trigger frame near the trigger. Tehres a silver allen screw in there... Scre wit in until your trigger is flush with the microswitch

theres no special technique in walking. do whatever is most comfortable and can help you shoot the fastest. i hit about 11-12 bps on my buddy's pilot and thats about as high as it was going to go so dont expect a whole lot more. like it says in the other threads, its just personal preference.
