Hey guys! I was wanting to find a way to make my vlog more interesting and actually have more of a purpose rather than simply recapping my day, so I’m going to start learning counterweight on my vlog. Every day I will work on a new counterweight trick, starting with the ones in the tutorial section here on yoyoexpert then I’ll expand from there when I exhaust these ones. I assume when the tricks start getting harder that it’ll take me longer than a day to master some of them (unlike the first few). But anyways, I’ll just edit this post to add the latest video to the top as this progresses, if you know of any tutorials I should take a look at when I run out of YYE tutorials let me know (msg, fb, youtube, replies to this thread, etc.) This should be fun! Wish me luck, These dice hurt when you miss the catch! haha :wink:

Forgot to update the thread for about a week. I’ve finished part one of the counterweight section, I’m now on to part two and I’m learning from Miggy now :wink:
