the trick is visible, but it’s not back to the hand. film the whole thing with that lighting setup and distance (and show the yo-yo) and you’ll be in like flynn. sorry to be a stickler, but… ok, yeah not sorry at all about that. it’s round 4. you got this. ---

I FINALLY LANDED MY FIRST KICKFLIP! Holy hell even if I don’t hit this whole combo I’m super excited about it! I’ve been trying for at least a month and just a little extra NTH wrist action is what I’ve been missing. ---

These last 10 days have been fun, it’s helped me keep my mind off of all the rough stuff going on otherwise. It’s always good to have a positive distraction. I’ve used my IPhone for all the rounds As long as you don’t throw the kick flip too high and out of the frame the camera picks it up pretty well ---

> [@DoubleBass](#): > > I’ve used my IPhone for all the rounds > As long as you don’t throw the kick flip too high and out of the frame the camera picks it up pretty well That’s the problem. 🙂 Oh well, I’ve been hitting the kickflip to lunar, which I’ve always had trouble with. I’m just hoping I can hit it again on camera. I’ve got the framing issue down. Either way I’m stoked, I’ve learned StM and gotten a lot of my tricks dialed in. This contest has also pushed me to upload a lot of content, which makes me happy. Anything I can do that unlocks more motivation in anything is considered a wonderful opportunity. ---

About 25 minutes later I hit it again on film and I rejoiced once again.  I think I might have heard angels singing “Tim is on to round 4, hallelujah.” ---

I am out of the running. ☹ I am banned from yoyo. On the plus side get to buy a new yoyo. The wife said no more yoyo until we are finished moving and then she would buy me the yoyo of my choosing. So I guess I have to drop out so I can buy a OD CiTizen. Good luck everybody! Thanks Ed for pushing me to learn new tricks! I am moving 1200 miles and have to load a semi trailer right now. I will be sure to learn these tricks when I have free time again. ---
