these rarely time out on stop n step any more - any point in taking them do u think?

Damn things used to about 90% of the time if not more....

If not much in will always take them on a skill one(jp gems, holy moly, OAR) for a quick profit, but never on a rocket money/top giza.

As above

Can be good if got cheap ... and the SnS might be there.
Bit more luck on SnS speed i find though!

Watch the 'famed' Red 'jump' though, if it doesn't want to give you SnS! I think the only ones that don't jump are where you get the red 'lines' and it goes from top to bottom / bottom to top extremely slowly. The random slow ones occaisionally don't offer the choice of SnS... :(

Hitting SnS on most speeds 'should' be a formality - have hit that super fast one a few times too - just don't let your eyes get drawn into the blur!!! ;)

You should never be more than 2 away from red sevens on the fast one
There is a way to hit it most of the time
Good reactions needed

Agreed, but its really not easy. Still an element of skill in my opinion.

Id say i only pull it off probably 15% of the time.

I really don't think it is skill, I never really try to hard to hit it, according to you lot, I should, I know a few others on here agree with me, i.e danthedude, mattb!

Yeah, no way is the super fast one skill. You cant even see the reels or any fruits on them, so its all pot luck!

Slow/medium should be pot virtually every time.

The slow one should never be missed!

As for the fast if i miss i'm never more than one fruit off.

My way is waiting about half a second after i see the blue bar and i hit most times just out of practice but my friend has a completely different way of doing it. I'd say we both hit about 80% - 90% of the time.

It's also quite an impresser when out with none gamblers when u show them. One mate was determined it wasn't skill.

So i said "if it's not skill don't u think it would give me f*cking cherries....?!"

lol :)

Oh, and not seen a mid speed stop n step in about a year.

Or a super fast for that matter - although i did on a chipped DNA.

do the old trick of getting a mate to wave his hand really fast over the center reel! :)

Holy Moly today was all red and after £20 span in green lines which timed out to SnS.

Hit the fast one (u gotta admit u do smile when u hit it!)

Then next board it was 1 nudge off JP which gambled and went up top for a £50.

Easiest decent red win i've had in a while - took about 10 mins if that :)
