Learn to Win Absurdity - Presented by OPYOYOS x YoYoExpert

It would be nice to just start paying myself!

I like the tricks, and I should try the other ones a bit. TBH, I’m slow at this stuff. I have my own tricks that I still can rarely hit, even after 10 years at some of them, off and on. They are much easier than these, too.

I also have too many interests to not be a dilettante at most of them. :smirk:

I’m still a big kid having fun, and that’s what most important to me. :wink:

I’m really impressed and excited by how well everyone is doing. Genuinely. I can’t help by show that by congratulating everyone.

It’s also really cool that people are learning my tricks. I couldn’t be happier with how all this is going.

Trick counts too!

Thank you so much for running the competition it’s been great fun and has really pushed me.
Thought I would put a little more effort on the video as there was no way I would hit all the tricks with my experience and trick library!!
Really loved it.
Face is fine thanks it was a complete brain fart moment and glad I got that on camera😁

How’s everyone doing? It’s not long now, Thursday is the last day for you to submit your videos.

Don’t forget, if you’re stuck and want some help, you can DM me or post in this thread.

I’ve almost got #1 down. I can do the whole trick, but my success rate with the hook is stuck at about 10%.

Record as much as you can. Your goal is to get it on camera, not to get it perfect every time.

Idk if I can get the third one in time but I’ll try. I’ve only watched it a couple of times, so I don’t understand most of it so far. The end just looks like you’re dropping it in a green triangle knot.

The start is just a slacky way into wrist mount. The rest is all red triangle based mounts. You might have a twist in the string but if you drop it you won’t get a traditional axle knot so it’s lower risk than it looks
