The best spinner?

Can anybody recommend a good spinner?
I've heard great reviews of the Tempest spinner from OscarControls. But unfortunately, I can't order anythihg--seems like they're closed (anybody know what's going on?).
Any others? How about the SlikStik?
Thanks

I think the SlikStick Tornado (

) Is the best, but it really depends on your personal preference. I prefer ones that have a long spin time.

I have the slikstik tornado and its a very nice spinner. I haven't used any others to compare it to but its made very well and I would recommend it to anyone.

Since oscarcontrols has been off-line for sometime... the Slikstik spinners are the only real option.
They are of excellent quality, there's no doubt about that, though.

Retroblast had a spinner roundup a while back.

The Tornado, last time I checked, did not work under DOS.
