This was harder than I thought and time just flew by this month with all the kids sports and events starting. But I get much cleaner with the basic loops so here’s loops on one hand at a time and then both hands.

My son Canaan wanted me to post his video entries for the 2A April Contest, he uploaded what I guess would be a “freestyle/creative” video to his YouTube channel. Is this the right place to post his “entry”? Or do I need to post somewhere else? Brand new Dad here to the forum….or ANY forum, ha. Please help me out! I know the deadline is Monday I think?

Here’s his link:

ha I’m happy I loaned him the loop 720’s. seems like he got into it there. its missing the sponsor banner but I’ll let it slide here. I’m just happy to see him participate.

I think I see one handed inside and outside loops. around the world 2 handed and a bunch of 2 handed hops and loops. good progress in just a few weeks.

side note he won the loop off at DMVT club a few weeks ago. his loops have improved a bunch.

i count at least 3 entries feel free to dispute that.

Thanks so much for all your help Brandon, and the kind words on his tricks, I’m gonna make sure to show him what you wrote.

If he can enter a few times that would be awesome, 3 entries sounds fantastic.

I’m so glad he came to the last meetup, and has gotten connected with the group. Thanks for all the hard work putting it together for us to enjoy.

Found out after that my mic was muted so no ASMR loops or catches ☹
