Although I kinda just made cameo appearances, I still have had a great TaW journey.

Thanks gang!

Nice. That’s a fun one isn’t it? Nice and quick, but so satisfying to land on the string that flips around.

It definitely is! Took a bit of messing around to find that sweet spot for the rejection (and figure out how to exit the knots) but its fun to pull off

Okay so the submissions were judged, it was super super close.  
To be honest I personally think all 6 submissions were more or less equal, I expected it to be more rankable but it wasn’t, and I know this is a cliched thing to say, but it’s apparent in the results that all 5 judges ranked everyone completely differently.

Your judges today were : me obviously, @twitch77, @ryanmcg, @ANGVS, and @AKYOYOMIKE

Taking an average of everyone’s ranking.

we have a tie for the first place, which is kinda awesome as it goes with the spirit of the competiton.  
Funnily enough both of our winners actually ranked them selves last in 6th place, but still ended up coming first.

So drum roll please~~~! the official Trick a Week Annual Competition #1 ranking and submission videos are!

**1st place** : @AKYOYOMIKE & @ryanmcg

Congrats to everybody for coming up with 1 minute of combos.

Before I didn’t think it possible to enter these online contest because I didn’t think I could get that much content. Now I see it is possible. So this was a great experience. I just know I still have a lot more practicing to go.

Special congrats for winners.

A problem I have with alot of boutique string is that the slipknot turns on my finger. I tried doing a double slipknot but it gets so tight getting it off my finger is not an easy thing and most of the time it all just melds into the initial knot. Zipline has a rosin ball but that is sold out. The turning slipknot is what keeps me from using a lot of the boutique string I have. I rarely ever have the problem of a turning slipknot with Kitty so my throwing is not the problem (I guess). Am I the only one with this seemingly newb problem?
