That’s the 4WD selector actually lol, last correction I swear :sweat_smile:

I have a few times actually, it is very capable! I’ll try to find some vids later and start an off topic

I see that @Nic_from_Adelaide counterweight in the bottom-right. I actually have the same one!

(edit: well, as same as a hand-made counterweight can be)

Am I just not seeing the trick challenge thread that’s usually posted for themed months?

Edit: Just seen one posted above. I’m blind.

Yo this tentacle trick is harder than i thought it would be. The momentum of it is just weird but I think I can get it better tomorrow.

After trying to 5a with several of my throws I came to realize the Haymaker OG was the one for me… with this huge and soft CW from @TryCatchThrow This combo is very stabile and controllable. It also doesn’t hurt that I already really love the OG. My kitty approved this message. :blush::+1:

Those barrels are great fun, I keep mine attached to my shutter. Very comfy and confidence inspiring, easy to catch. Good stuff!!

Still polishing up Suspense and starting to work on Turbine.

Anyone know any good tutorials with some redirects? I want to get better at redirects.

Yo do you mean redirects like in 1a? Or do you mean rebounds where you’re reversing the path of the cw? You said redirect but bc this is the 5a thread, I feel like you meant rebounds. I could def be wrong tho so imma link a vid for each lol

This is quoc anh’s newest tut that has a couple simple rebounds and is just cool looking.

This is the absolute best vid for understanding redirects
