Hey! I have seen a bunch of arm tricks, and they’re really cool! Then I attempt to make my own, but they’re really stupid. Can anyone show me a few tutorials on arm tricks, elements, mounts, etc.? I have only been yoyoing for 1 year, so don’t make them too complex. Thanks! :wink:

EDIT: I don’t really care anymore how complex they are… bring on the complex-ness!!! 😃

The opening part of Andrew Miller’s trick “Oscillate” (there’s a tutorial somewhere) shows a nifty way to get into an arm mount and then manipulate the slack that results from releasing it off the arm. It goes into a non-arm tech trick from there, but it’s a cool element.

Possibly! But here’s the tutorial I was referring to:

Here’s an older one by Mark Montgomery that is not too complex, but I think is still pretty cool:

And here’s one from Rafael Matsunaga that is a little more complex/difficult:

These aren’t strictly tutorials, but they both have slow-motion edits and are simple enough conceptually that that will probably be enough to figure them out.

Try Zammy’s trick “Gladiator”, and well as Rethinkyoyo’s “Nix”, and also “False Blitz” by Zammy as well.
