No fixed axle dares. Ed will stomp them all(in his sleep even) before we get to even think them up.

(I’m Kidding. Mad respect Ed for takin the dare down.)

Quickly, because ed is only doing fixed axle for a year. Let’s all think of bearing challenges so that we can’t be beat!

I was watching some freestyles and saw some horizontal 3A. I can’t remember any from the top of my head though. I know Alex Hattori once came up to me and showed me some horizontal 3A. Pretty amazed, sick stuff.

I took the simple and made it amazing earlier, visiting my uncle at the hospital. When boarding the elevator, a doctor sees me winding a yoyo. She asks “Is that a yoyo? I haven’t seen those in a long time.” Then she arrived at her floor and left. I get to next floor doing a couple tricks, next doctor boards the elevator, same statement, haven’t seen them in years. They then told me “Show me a trick…do Walk the Dog!” I told them “I’ve got one even better, saves the metal from getting banged up!” and did a finger grind. Their jaw dropped in amazement, describing it as a bird perched on my finger.

Yea, it’s sad, you don’t see yoyos much these days outside of our community but in the long run, even a goof looks like something ‘professional and amazing’ to the general public.
