Your tutorials are more than clear. And it turns out you’ve invented a new trick😁

I take that as a yes. Doing your version counts for ladder entries.

I know the independent tangler but your is different.

Finally got around to getting this done.  
Please see below for my 5A May Week 4 submission.

All Tricks: Shoulder Pop, 360° Green Triangle, Tangler, Nunchucks, Grounded Meltdown (if it counts, if not, still fun) Schway aka Thread The Needle, and Freestyle Fun Times (5A Revolutions, and some secret surprises)  
Bonus at the end!

Thank you all again for the months of fun and excitement, it’s been a ride and I’ve had a great time especially tapping into some of the 5A skill-sets for the first time.  
It’s been real, it’s been fun, and it’s been real fun!

Here’s nunchucks, I can do all the others besides tangler, and I’m too lazy to learn that, and since I can’t get the second entry bc of that I’m too lazy to record shoulder pop and stuff 😜 so here it is for me to close out 5aMay!!  
Thanks so much @YoYo-Boomer-Club for putting together all these fun events!

It leads pretty nicely into a bind which is how i’ve seen most players use it. I can’t really time the bind after the counterweight catch immediately though so I always end up doing one extra yoyo pinwheel into the bind, it still looks kinda nice even with this easier variation though imo.

Incomplete trick ladder because my tangler doesn’t look like a trick.  
Secret ladder trick  
Bonus trick that might count as a freeform?

Flying Lemon proto by Spinworthy with a long string is exactly how I like my 5A setup. You nailed it @anon5341354

This is the balance for me. The Secret Ladder Trick and a Freeform entry. I’ve been working on Red Windmill for a while. I was hoping to demo a hand switch in this video but I couldn’t make it happen.

Boomers are taking June off.

There maybe a little something in July?

Can you send me proof of that deal please? I am not recalling agreeing to those demands.

As the resident bean counter, I have yet to be bought. My price is way higher than the prize packs combined.

Have Fun.
