I’ve seen it exists but I’ve never been able to find anything that shows even one picture of what it looks like on the inside, so I’ve always been hesitant to purchase, haha.
Buddha’s Revenge is one I usually go to while warming up. Here’s a sloppy rendition I filmed quickly so I could enter~
Brain twister
First trick of the day
First trick on a new yoyo
Learnt it in 90s felt really cool but eventully stopped throwing.
About 2/3 years ago i grabbed a magic yoyo double pack of a n11 and a k2.
Grabbed the k2 strung it up landed a brain twister.
Hooked again.
This time its for life
It starts with the other yo-yo sites “first speed combo” and transitions into “the matrix.”
Here’s my little “warm-up” combo… it’s a mix of 2 tricks that I picked up from past Trick-a-Week posts, Bonesplint and Sector Y.
This is my go-to trick. It’s not perfect, it’s a bit of a mess. But it’s the first trick I ever invented. The one that sucked me into my favorite hobby. It was the first trick I could be proud of.
I can usually do better. But I was recording, and nervous. Haha
First off thanks for organising this event, it’s very cool of you and that is a gorgeous yo-yo
This trick has probably been my default autopilot trick for not that far from a decade at this point honestly.
I think everyone who started yoyoing around 2009-2011 or so probably has come up with a trick using the classic Jensen bounce from an undermount into double or nothing lol. I really like how I can play with the cadence of it and the angles to completely change how it looks. Next tidbit about this trick is that I was taught the central slack elements at worlds 2012. Sadly idr the name of the guy who taught me it (or what the trick was called) but it was probably my first more advanced slack trick and i’ve always loved it. Around the time I made this trick I was also experimenting a bunch with wrist mount exits, hence the bit tagged on at the end.
Side note but @yogurt your execution on that trick was awesome impeccable flow and that rejection at the end is great.
Thanks!
Very unique combo you got there too, love your flow. I can almost hear the music in your headphones just by watching you play lol
The Jensen bounce is also one of my autopilot elements simply because it’s fun. Sometimes I just like to do it over and over again untill I have to bind
Thanks for hosting this giveaway! Stuff like this is why I love this community.
My go to trick is the bee sting aerial! It’s one of the first really cool 5a tricks that I figured out and I love how just for a moment you aren’t touching any part of the yoyo yet you are still in full control. I ended the combo with an electric triangle which isn’t quite in autopilot status yet but I want to master it so badly because it feels so satisfying to hit. (Plus repeating triangles is badass)
I haven’t really been yoyoing long enough to feel like I have a true autopilot combo or anything, but just simple efan elements like make up a lot of what I do when I’m just doing mindless low effort yoyoing.
Thank you for hosting a giveaway! That is very kind of you.
I do the tricks that I have made up a lot as autopilot tricks so I combined them all into one combo. I hope you like some of my tricks. It wasn’t the best looking take but I landed all my tricks.
the timeless classic
Was that a regular beefhook at the beginning or something else?
Heck yeah! Cold fusion is probably my #1 go to. Will have to upload my super brainless combo with it soon.
Here’s my autopilot trick. No fun story behind it or anything, both parts were just super frustrating when I was first learning them ………and feel incredibly smooth when put together
just a regular one!
What trick/elements was that after the beef hook?
Sometimes it is Kamikaze.
I feel like this one and spirit bomb are the tricks that make you feel like you are no longer “intermediate”.
But most of the times it is this one (check the first clip):
Just a combination of gentrified and a couple of Rei Iwakura tricks. (Naoto triangle, bermuda triangle and a few others).
We have the same T-shirt (see my vid above)
Heinz you’re the man. Thank you for setting up this giveaway
