I compiled a list of basic 1A elements for future reference. I’ve found it useful to look back on the foundations of tricks for inspiration in trick creation and freestyle play. I hope it helps you to realize your full potential and ascend to a higher plane of consciousness.
Feel free to comment if you have any additions or questions!
Yes that’s right😄
In the houdini mount picture the string goes over the thumb of the left hand. If that string would go into the gap of the yoyo instead you would find yourself in a kamikaze mount. That’s how the two mounts are connected.
I think horizontal would just be a variation of existing elements on the list. I’m not too well versed in horizontal. The only trick I know of that’s exclusive to it is the banana turnover. For the behind the back stuff, I’ll add body tricks to the list and that would also cover arm, leg, and neck stuff.
Casual yo-yo tutorials did a very good job of categorizing and demonstrating. Jacob, the creator seemed to have abandoned the idea, but it was excellent, still is…
Never seen these before, I’ve been checking them out. Really useful videos! This is what I was going for with this list, just breaking it down to the most basic moves and elements.
