Awesome, a new (to me, LOL) tutorial channel! Time to get learning.

Oh, and I’ll do a self-plug too…check out the link in my signature! My channel has four tutorials for original tricks and a fifth one is coming on Wednesday. Tell me how you like mine too!

Watch the pros, like Yuuki Spencer, Jensen Kimmit, or Zack Gormley (just to name a few) and base your stuff off them. You’ll get some great ideas from their trick concepts.

This is good advice to come up with combos, but I believe that originality will dwindle if you base your tricks on other players. Players tend to become generic copies of the yoyoers they emulate.

One way I come up with tricks is that I ask non-yoyoers to watch a trick of mine. I ask them what they think would make the trick even cooler, and I try to replicate what they suggest. It is really a great way to come up with some cool concepts!
