Ok, so the moons were hard for some people. I appreciate that. If you made it through them, you might be awesomer than you expected right? So you deserve a CHALLENGE, right? And everybody loves a Kickflip-Suicide combo, right? [http://instagram.com/p/2O8Pxhkp0P](http://instagram.com/p/2O8Pxhkp0P) Kickflip to Lunar, then Stall-Suicide (no flip) back to Trapeze Stall, and finish with a Double-Kickflip. First catch on the thumb, next two on the index - NO string-grabbing ;). Post your vids in this thread by 6p EST on Wed, 5/6 to move on to the terrors of Round 5. Slow-mo is NOT at all necessary, but I MUST be able to see the double-suicide clearly (along with all other aspects of the trick). So don’t film from too far away or at 8 fps or something. ---

Nice combo!!! Just need to practice the double flip on the end… Just ran through the first two steps 😃 Quick tips, use your knees, new string with zero tension, and be sure to give yourself enough room to work when you land that first stall. Not too close to your throw hand, but not too far out… Also experiment with your stall loop size. Good luck to all!!! ---

[https://instagram.com/p/2PQ1ZFjreA/?taken-by=nationalkyle](https://instagram.com/p/2PQ1ZFjreA/?taken-by=nationalkyle) Dudes, this is a very hard trick. Everyone who hits it deserves the highest honors. Try a high walled yo like an Imperial for solid kickflip loops. ---
