Speaking of string length, a too long string makes that hook just as hard as a too short string. I find a typical length, like most bulks, is just about perfect. Thatā€™s about an inch above my belly button, and Iā€™m 6ā€™. So maybe add an inch while practicing it. Itā€™s kicking my butt right now. I need to get it to at least 40% success rate to do the trick and get it on video. I hope I didnā€™t start too late šŸ˜• ---

Im 5ā€™3ā€™ your string length would likley reach my chin šŸ˜. I think i need a longer string cause my bellybutton measure might be a little closer to the floor then the average yoerā€¦ ill give it a shotā€¦ but honestly i donā€™t think that 4 inches of string is whatā€™s holding me back on this trickā€¦ ---

I tie the knot at the length of my brestbone intake so around 20cm more then my bellybutton. ---

So guys, I SHOULD have completed the Absurdity challenge, waiting for acceptance of the last trick. So now I will focus on this weekā€™s trick. I think I more or less got it, but I canā€™t really display well the first figure before the last gt. Iā€™ll post a video later ---

Good job man. Those tricks are pretty hard; Iā€™m hoping I can get just the first one done before itā€™s over. Iā€™m pretty confident I can learn the second one, but I really doubt Iā€™ll get to it in time. I think Iā€™ll (try to) do them whether I get them done in time or not. Iā€™ll post my vids here if/when I manage to do them. ---

Iā€™m just proud of you guys for going for it! lol I looked at the tricks and was automatically like ā€œNOPE!ā€ā€¦but you guys didnā€™t back down from the challenge. So well done guys!

The first trick is the hardest one. That hook took me hours just to figure out what was happening. I suggest you to start learning the second, if youā€™re comfortable with Brent stole and reverse hook it will be easy. If youā€™re not comfortable with them, then try the third one first. It looks hard from the video but itā€™s not that hard. ---
