I don’t really play responsive very much. I have an Oracle and a sage. Which would be better for learning shoot the moon?

The Oracle is the more imperial shaped one yes? If so thats the one that would likely be better.

I landed my first StM yesterday. Struggling a bit with the timing, but I’ll get it down. So far I like my Delrin Gamer better than my RBC for this, but maybe that’s just because it saves my beginner knuckles some wear and tear.

I haven’t ventured outside of 1A for the past 10 years or so. It’s refreshing to try something new.

Just saw this. Been working the moon for a few days just got to 5. Hoping to get into double digits by the end of the year.

Using my trusty duncan :wink:

Hands down, my favorite yo-yo to do this on is the old school Henry’s Viper - there’s something about doing it on a super bouncy/rubbery v-shaped yo-yo that’s both thrilling and easy, haha!

Been working STM… I’ve even improved my left a bunch… nothing 2 at a time yet (that’s some scary stuff to practice! )

Question whats the string torsion you guys STM with? Do you keep it tight or neutral?
