Thanks, I think it’s more useful that double dice actually. Controlling 3 moving objects at once is just too much so a lot of double dice tricks can be slow because only 2 of them can move at a time. This kind of stuff can go into normal fast 5a.

Was working on 360s with both hands, and remembered @adamantiumpops doing GT360s and attempted them myself (sans reversal though, thats too much for me lol). Been having fun with these all day

After I posted this, I attempted the reversals and actually hit them with both hands! Will take me a long time to get it on one throw though. Update when I can lol

One thing I enjoy about 5A May is that so few people on this forum are extremely great at 5A, and most people are average at best, it inspires more videos with less than perfect routines.

I think overall, that mediocrity encourages more people to post not-so-good vids, and as a result more people get involved.

I honestly suck at 5A, so it’s nice to learn basic tricks and feel like a rookie again, and also to know I’m not alone in not being that good. :+1:

(Note, I’m not saying anyone on this thread is good or bad, I’m just commenting on 5A videos in general.) 😀
