Looks like you’re having fun with it, which is the point. ---

Terrific! This is how the obsession begins. Once you can land the trapeze and perform a basic bind or two, then you’re off to the races! Well done! ---

Nice tricks. I never actually learned that one where you rotate the hands around the yoyo (forget the trick name), but it looks pretty good! ---

Yea, that’s it. Was definitely a notch above in technicality vs the other tricks. Though I never learned it because im just not a fan of doing front mount tricks. I can do brain twister and the other basic classics though. ---

The more you throw the easier it gets. Soon enough you will learn a handful of tricks and start combo-ing them into each other. It’s a great feeling! ---
