> Love starting with the fundamentals. I’ve always been the type to skip things like that and go straight to the top. Skip Waikiki lessons and head up to Pipe (some of you know what that means :wink: ). So this is getting me working on those things, and not just doing them but really getting them to where they are second nature. Not there yet on that but still working on it.

Agreed. This has also pushed me to up my game in general. Came up with a multi-stall picture trick today after rerecording my entry for round 2 as well as working on under stall kickflips. Check out #fixedcircle on IG, only one post each from Berto and I this far but trying to get this thing going. Will be posting a video soon of my new “pic-trick.”

Well here’s mine!&nbsp; Please note, Mr Haponik, how red those poor gorilla fingers are at the end of the video.&nbsp; From spending hours outside, as it got colder, trying to land that trick on film.

That cheap thrills looks nice. I need to pick up one of those versions. I’ve got a maple.

I wish my camera was better so that you could make out the yoyo a bit better while it’s spinning. The grain and the inlay make a beautiful pattern.

Mine is raw maple with the blue caps. It’s awesome, but has nothing in the way of grain. I love how light it is.

Just saw this thread, and I have to stay late after school tommorow, so here I am nearly 11 o’clock and I just hit the trick on cam. Little rough, but i think itll be good enough. somebody let me know if it isnt.

Alright! Round 2 is OVER. No more submissions or edits please.  
So I guess that round was pretty easy. We only lost a couple folks. (And why that may make the contest short on drama, I have to say I prefer it for now.)

My favorite part of this is watching some of the celebration catches, where you can tell some folks honestly didn’t expect to get it. I have been there SO. MANY. TIMES. So anyway, here’s the list of folks continuing:

FinalFantasy9001  
Pineapple Jumpsuit  
DoubleBass

Adam Brewster

baconNeggs  
AaronW  
jon walker  
yomartyo  
TwilightMagester  
Malushi  
Logi  
yoyojoe  
Sergio  
RSGR

After the clarifications following Round 1, there really shouldn’t be an excuse for not getting your trick up by today at 3p (unless I full-on forgot, which is no prob since it’s timestamped). Otherwise, move on to the Round 3 thread as soon as you see it. That trick may represent a gateway for some of you, but it’s an important one.

NICE JOB! 🙂
