Hey gang, family and I are down with the big coof again, I have a ton of time to burn and limited brain power lol, whatchya got?
I already know skin the gerbil, matrix, Buddha’s revenge, rancid milk, scarlet begonias, some stuff like that, but I’m looking for something that’s not too step-heavy to work on. Rancid milk was a real struggle because of all the steps.
So what are some fun, somewhat easy to learn 0,1 or 5a tricks?
Or
What are your favorite tutorials that you’ve enjoyed learning from
Even if you’re not picking up new tricks, 0a is super chill, not sure what 0a stuff you already know, grab a comfort throw and just chill (without the fever of course)
I recently unlocked the cursed art of -1A. My latest discovery in this inverse paradigm is getting hit in the face by the yoyo. My tutorial is: please uh don’t do that.
On a more serious but not very serious note: I’m calling it -1A now when you do trial and error, experimentation, and just get into a transcendent level of messy, absolutely screwing everything up. Some examples, I got hit in the face because I impulsively reached out and tried to boop the yoyo with my finger when it was already utterly out of my control; but I was experimenting and I could’ve done something amazing… well, in a way I did—I discovered the actual power of the yoyo as a weapon ha ha ha. I decided that when I start to throw a Double or Nothing but just let the yoyo go around and around my throw-hand index finger, winding the string around it, I’m naming that -1A trick ‘Circulation’—because it cuts off my circulation, and the yoyo is also circling me. It’s like a modified Around The World, but with extra pain, and it’s really hard to recover from because to do it properly you’ve gotta do enough revolutions that the yoyo has no string left to wrap around your finger, by which point it is usually already dead.
I know how to stall and do a kick flip basicallly. I think I know making da zines, but I feel like there’s a step I’m missing before it repeats back into the stall
Basically you pop out of the stall as though you’re gonna do a fly-away dismount, and regen, repeat. It’s another feel good trick for me.
Also, do you know Split the Atom? Technically it’s a 1a string trick but you can loop out into a stall, or if you feel really bold, loop and shoot the moon finale (I have not unlocked that ability yet with StM finale). Split the Atom just feels better on an old school responsive.
I’d wait on shooting moons til you feel better, it can get violent if not careful…I’ve had close calls and it used to scare me as a kid when I tried to learn off of my Duncan VHS tape
