Yes and I would suggest to keep the slipknot loop not exaggeratedly big. I’d say to have it embracing half of your finger circumference. A big loop will not have enough friction to keep the slipknot firm on your finger. I’m not sure I wrote very clearly, sorry 😅

Greeeeaat @AKYOYOMIKE!!  
Try this, a millisecond after landing the last hop, let go all the strings! You’ll see it will bind

i did it! twice! it was amazing. i figured out a way for the first hop to be easier. if you hop kind of to the side and up, then quickly move to the correct string, you can get it easier, and it shouldn’t stay on the same string and snag, and bind on you.

Hi all,

Just dropping in quickly as I’ve put together some more of the tricks I have outstanding into a video. This should only leave Kamikaze and fingerspin left to be all caught up.

@ChrysaeThrows I really like that bind! Did you stumble onto that while learning sands of time by any chance?

Honestly I don’t remember, but I just saw now sand of time tutorial and it was on my “watched” list, so I guess that the answer is yes.

I am getting to a stage now where I am feeling quite comfortable with the hops but I am really struggling to get it to bind at the end. After countless attempts I have managed to get it to bind perhaps a handful of times but to be honest that feels mostly down to luck than skill. Still, I am enjoying it immensely!

Landed one complete with a bind!

/sigh…still not very confident on this one. Dang it I struggle with popping the yo off the string (to do the first hop) and with the last hop.

Still a few days left to get it though!

Like Ryan said, do a double slipknot! Totally eliminated the problem for me and twitch’s video is easy to follow

I get my best practice sessions on the subway… people often grab video (which probably goes viral on IG) with out my permission, but i try to put on a show anyway. This guy was nice enough to actually forward me the clip… kamikaze and mexican duck
