Hydr0a double trapeze is nutty.

Anything goes!  
My mantra for 0A is No Rules, No Points!

That being said I do like using the upgraded Proyos. Leather caps bring them into the 49-52g range and to me at least the modified slimline shape helps with tricks like that double trapeze

A swipe of chapstick on the tip of the string (the part around the axle) helps you tune your response! It can also help make a scratchy wooden axle feel smooth, but the main purpose is tuning the response!

If your yoyo is to “Slippy” on the tug response; A lot of us put a dab of Chapstick or bees wax on the end of the loop around the axle to add more resistance and increase response.

Hi everyone! Here’s my first entry. Finally got some time and decided to participate a little. In the video are all the tricks for beginners and three Jerrod’s tricks.

Tape Measure  
Trapeze Stall  
MakinDaZines  
Sidewinder

Banana Slide  
Dolphin Flip  
Ghost Trap

I chose the Duncan Special - it’s like a cheaper version of the Imperial - because I like the color, but it doesn’t play very well to be honest. Thanks to all the organizers and participants for another cool event. If I did something wrong, write, I’ll try to redo it. I hope to post something else by the end of the week. Good luck to everyone!

We can rebuild it, we have the technology. Stronger, faster, and the low, low price of $6,000,000.

Seriously though, I’m kind of glad that the 2A players haven’t just smashed out the Hydr0A tricks. I had no frame of reference for how hard this might be
