What is your very first throw of the day like? What trick do you autopilot as the very first thing that comes to mind?
For the month of December, I decided to record the first trick attempt of every morning before my workdays (So everyday except my weekends off) to see what results I would get.
The main rules for this were that no matter what the throw ended up like, I would keep the take and put it in the video. That meant even if the trick failed, or if something happened like getting a knot or the trick was sloppy, I would still document it.
What you see here is the very first throw of the day. I allowed myself a “safety throw” if needed but otherwise, what you see is right after I hit the “record” button on the camera.
Some unique things happened, some mistakes, but to me, this was true throwing and a look into the most natural kind of yoyoing for me and it was a fun experiment to try!
