Do rollerball pens skip?
Due to their reliance on ink flow, rollerball pens can skip under certain circumstances. If the pen is left uncapped and the ink dries out, the pen may skip until proper ink flow is established. Also, if the writing surface does not properly turn the rollerball, the pen may fail to apply a smooth, consistent flow of ink; that occurrence is common on waxy and glossy papers with which the smooth, slick surface fails to properly engage the pen’s ball.
