Please see below for my Week1 submission!
All three tricks, still have a bonus at the end coming into MRM as well apparently, haha.
Also, included one trick twice since I HAD to bring my Imperial with me to start things off (just in case).

(For Note: Flipper and Bounce House should be Split-Bottom Stalls, not Undermount Stalls. I re-shot in a separate vid)

Also really enjoyed Bounce House!

Ah yes, this is very true. Needs to be a Split bottom Mount not an Undermount. Sorry, that’s kind of my bad for not explaining the trick well enough in this video. For the coming weeks I’ll try to be more descriptive.

Check out the alternate tutorials for each trick. @DocPop does a better job than I at explaining Flipper. Especially when it comes to the transition from Split Bottom Mount to Alternate Hand Planet Hop.

I brought shame to my club, hopefully this re-do of Flipper and Bounce House will rectify it. :pray:

I wouldn’t necessarily call it shame. You did bless us with a new trick… No Throwz Sticky Booger.

Also, is there anything that makes these tricks more modern responsive and the tricks last month more fixie? Or nah it’s kinda just all 0a and those are just different types of yo-yos to appreciate and enjoy playing with?
