Hey everyone! šŸ˜ƒ Iā€™ve never done a poll before so I figured why not make one after i tried to make a list of all the tricks i know by heart. So hereā€™s the deal. There are some of us that learn a new trick and do it over and over till it becomes second nature and there are others that learn a new trick and move on to the next but is it learned or did you get a little lucky. There are tons of tricks in this world and many different classes to do them in. Iā€™ve put together this poll so we can see how we stand up in our own community. What qualifies in your arsenal as a learned trick? Any trick you can do at least 3 out of 5 times in a row, whether its smooth or not. So count up all the tricks you can do in every division and pick that number on the poll. If you like, you can make a post with how many you can do in each division. Lets keep it as honest as possible. Just facts about what our community is capable of. ;D ---

Yea i did start on the yomegamania dvd way back when, then YoYoExpertā€™s learn list, then high speed, a bunch from youtube, and halfway through rethinkyoyo. But you have to take into consideration some repeat over websites so that why Iā€™m working on a list for myself. Iā€™m up somewhere near 250. ---

> [@\_Z1](#): > > On a personal note, I am too scared to realize how many I can do. Haha, I canā€™t even imagineā€¦ I donā€™t know too many tricks that there are tutorials for. I know a lot of basic ones and some advanced tricks, but for the most part I just make up my own. I really donā€™t know how many I know. ---

Dang I feel like a noob around you guys. I can do just under 60 ā€œtricksā€. Lately I have just been making up combos using parts from tricks, not ā€œwhole tricksā€. I guess Im not bad for only been throwing for a month. ;D Here is my listā€¦ probably TL so DR; :-\ Loopingish?

I canā€™t do many, just moved into learning the advanced stuff. I guess I would consider a trick ā€œlearnedā€ when I can land it more often than not. It is learned when I at least have the mechanics down, without having to think about it. I guess I would consider being proficient at a trick a much higher standard. Being proficient, the misses would be rare. ---
