As far as I know, this is an original element, but if it’s not, feel free to say so. [![]( " - YouTube") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTkwZbpvqvQ) Just some freestyling involving the concept of a string hold. (Dismounting, but not letting go of the string) ---

Ok this might sound a bit Noobish but, What are we all talking about? Um The String Hold Thing. Sorry for the odd question, but I’m still learning. Only been 5-6 mths into the practice thing, I used to throw when I was like 13-14, was all that good mostly basic. Now I’m 33 and learning is alot more fun and easier. I just want to keep up on my lingo and tricks I geuss. Sorry for blabbing. String Hold?? and Elements?? or is it together Elements string hold?? ---

Elements are what make up tricks, IE: String rejections, folds, etc. The Hold is just an element.
