Copied and pasted from a different thread, but:

How long were you throwing, and what caliber of tricks were you capable of, before you really started focusing on making your own tricks? I just started working on the spirit bomb today and even landed it a couple times! I think my experience from ~8 years ago is accelerating my progress a bit, but it’s still exciting.

Also, can you explain what the creation process is like?

Thanks again, Evan!

Wow, congrats! Spirit bomb was the hardest trick that I could never land for years, lol. I’ve been yoyoing for about 21 years on and off, but I wasn’t always good. Here’s a [video of me in 2009](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pOKYGK8Mb9Y). It’s pretty embarrassing tbh.
