Enjoy!
omg so good! I love how you end with the same clip that you started with. reallllly nice.
do you film yourself?
Thanks man! ;D
Yep, just a DLSR and a tripod. Makes things more difficult because getting shots in focus can sometimes be a nightmare with such narrow depth of field, so if thereās anyone around to help me focus a shot then I might ask them if they can help out, but this one was a strictly solo deal.
Iāve tried filming on a DSLR and my ānifty fiftyā (50mm) lens. It is difficult to set up the shot and get things in focus, lot of trial and error until you hit that sweet spot, the results can be stunning and definitely give a certain look you canāt get on a phone or Gopro.
The multi angle stuff, do you set up more than 1 camera or do you splice together multiple takes of the same trick from different angles?
Cool stuff, now that itās becoming lighter out later, I should pull out my DSLR and start filming some stuff Iāve picked up on over the past few months.
Loved that under-leg bind at :57. This is a really great video. Nicely done!
Very well done video as always Gambit, love it! You just earned yourself a repost on instagram ;D
So great. Youāre batting 100 on full-length videos so far.
Love seeing that signature trick of yours making a reappearance. You know the oneā¦the one I still havenāt learned yetā¦
So good
This is more like a meditationā¦ I really enjoy your filming style and how everything flows well.
Same questionā¦alsoā¦for how long have you been yoyoing sir gambit??
And did you add the sound effects later or does your garden actually sound like peace
-
I only have one camera so I set it up and film each trick from different angles, then splice them together at the end.

Iāve been yoyoing about 3 years. I donāt really think Iām as decent as I should be considering thatās how long Iāve been throwing, haha. I really should practice more, itās just finding the timeā¦

Nope, those are the actual sounds. Itās actually my friendās garden, I chose it because itās so peaceful. My garden just sounds like cars, airplanes and the occasional police siren.
Thanks so much for all the kind words guys!
That was beyond-awesome of you to do man, I was shocked when I saw it! Thank you so so much! I woke up this morning with like 50 more followers (1000 here we comeā¦)!
I know I already owe you guys like 10 rounds of drinksā¦ but some day Iām heading over to YYE HQ and personally shaking all of your hands (/hugging for those more tactile staff members) for everything you guys have done for me. It is all very much appreciated. ;D
Just keep making awesome videos man, thatās thanks enough! Oh, and the rounds of drinksā¦ Iāll take those!
Iāve said this before, and Iāll say it again. Cheer up! You said itās because if you did youād look like a madman. So you should do a video with your fastest most insane stuff whilst grinning like a madman. (And an overdramatic evil witch laugh)
Anyways, great video, I really loved that weird GT where you bring the string around it and a rejects and then it slacks down andā¦ Andā¦ You get it.
Incredibly well done video. Rich with interesting tricks and paced perfectly.
Beautiful video Gambit!! Always a pleasure to watch your stuffā¦
I need to start an Instagram just to follow youā¦ Cant wait to see whatās next!
Also the degree of slow-mo youāve used is super awesomeā¦im practically tired of seeing vids where the yoyo moves in jagged directions as if itās executing brownian motion ā¦ this one was a breath of fresh airā¦im going to download it and learn all those neat flow-y tricks of yours(promises to himself)
P.S.-i agree with Fuzzwadā¦look like a madman , but keep your tricks flow-y and kinda calmā¦that way youāll look like a calm madmanā¦more or less like a cold blooded killerā¦spookkyyyā¦hehe(forgive my wry sense of humour)
