If you had asked me a few days ago if I thought I could learn this trick, I’d have said no way.  Now I see I just needed a little incentive.  Thanks Ed.

Still need to smooth those STM’s out… Please let me know if the last one was too sketchy :smiley: I’ll gladly reshoot the video, thanks Ed!

So apparently if we make it to round 4 we get a 20% off YYE gift code? Will we be given that once there’s a winner? Thanks Andre and Ed for such an awesome contest :slight_smile:

My round 3 submission.  I’ll keep working on my STMs, Ed, please let me know if this is good.

Many thanks.

Jamie, that songs! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

I did it! Only a bit of #yoyodamage and only harassed by security once.

Luckily I kept my tongue. What I wanted to say…well let’s just say I may not have been able to post the link due to graphic language. This video was literally 3 days of filming in the making.

Edit: I’d agree with Andre’s synopsis in the tutorial. Hardest looping trick I’ve ever learned.

I landed it my third try on film and forgot to show the guts. This is taken 2 hours and one string after that.

I had been practicing the Zines as a repeater and at the end I almost stalled it. I did not fumble it. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

The YouTube made me really smile man! I love watching people hit tricks and show that much excitement. If you won this, I don’t think I’d be as happy even if I won.

Video is fixed fellas. Apologies for the error. It’s been on Intagram of anyone wants to follow.

Well. Um, my yoyo’s axle snapped while I was trying to film, so, um… I guess I’m out? XD

This was actually my first time trying to land Shoot The Moon, and I enjoyed the challenge! I only landed the full trick once off of film, and I have to say that landing the stall out of Shoot The Moon feels really, really cool. I suppose I’m going to be in the market for a new fixed axle.

I hope this is ok, have no time for a better take. The ceilings aren’t low, I’m just to tall…
