The key to the basic stall is moving the non throw hand along with the counterweight to kill its momentum and redirect it. I found giving it a gentle arc toss up and over and then moving the non throw hand along with its motion helped. When the weight moves momentum, move the non throw hand back outward along with the counterweight to help aid its momentum to swing back up and over. Be ready to catch. ---

Thanks so much @ryanmcg. Not bad for some guys that wanted to be professional ravers😉 We’re way overdue for a new promo vid though. Maybe I’ll shoot a short fire eating video this weekend. I can shoot the moon with that too. And there’s a trick called shoot the river (pretty tough one). ---

I know it’s not this week’s work… but i did this tonight after a long day of 2A×5A… which equally 10A… not my best joke… ![20200506_004634](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/b/9/5/b957cf8b211d638c17d094660a03fd385ec8de95.jpeg) so i figured I’d take a break tonight… maybe Michael Jackson messing with my head 🕶. Anyway i got a kick out .if this, this was tonight’s play list… some smoother then others. Heavily influenced by TaW so i figured it’s acceptable. ---

Heist is great. Actually very playable. I need practice, but i can land most my tricks with it for now just not very consistently… but after 20 min on the heist playing a normal yoyo seems easier. If your looking for another mini to complement your mini Slepinir (?) You won’t be disappointed… and i think it’s cheaper :wink:. I’m not trying to persuade u to buy anything but i don’t think you actually bought anything in 2 days… ---

have you been using the AL for freehand? lol I’m too chicken to still. I’m really good at chucking my yo onto the ground…and it’s not so much the fear of dinging the AL up, it’s more of the fear of dropping it and causing a cap to pop out or to ding it in a way that makes it vibe real bad or something. ---
