> [@Oroboryo](#): > > What are you struggling with? Just the second pop? Yeah ☹ It’s one of those things that’s really making me feel rather dumb lol. I know it’s probably something simple I’m missing…and I feel like I should have this darn trick… I think my brain goes blank right as I’m popping the yo up haha…and I forget everything I’m suppose to know about the pop. I’ll continue working on it. I’ll get it eventually…just going to take me awhile. ---

It took me months to get it, I’m a slow learner but it is something you just need to develop a feel for and as others have said it really helps to use your knees for the second pop! ---

I’m enjoying a lot this week’s trick. Just practiced a couple of hours and I confirm that the single elements are not difficult to hit. Doing it smooth in another story though. ---

You talking about spirit bomb or the new trick? There’s no slack in spirit bomb unless I’ve been doing it all wrong lol. If you are talking about spirit bomb, it’s more of an easy rejection. Move your throw hand outward off plane. Do it just like how you double on before the fist hop, just off the inside. Make sure your non throw hand finger hits both strings (the one coming off the yoyo and the one the yoyo is resting on). If you don’t hit both strings, it probably won’t reject. ---

I was talking about the new trick… I found kendama legs to be an excellent tip for spirit bomb, i need to practice consistency on the landing but i got it down thanks @Oroboryo… but for this week i think that flip at the end is slack? My terminology might be wrong… i’m not sure if we pinch the string with the NTH and how do you keep the triangle that flips intact to catch it…? ---

This trick is long and I’m getting a little lost past the middle, but it is a great choice. It’s forcing me to go just out of my comfort zone and I think my play is improving. This might be the first one I complete before weeks end. ---

I only worked on it for a little while today but I’m feeling the same about it so far. I think I’ll have it learned quick but getting it fast and smooth is going to take a while! ---

I just landed a perfect spirit Bomb and followed into a flawless kamikaze… no video, just my own sense of satisfaction. As i finish my daily Subway commute i had the best jam session ever… flowing in and out of all the tricks we’ve done 1-11…(except injection and finger spins)…i even land this week’s trick completely and in a flow with kamikaze… I love this challenge! ---

I met a guy named JordanL the other day. He walked into my brother’s room and we had a throw session. Very cool dude… apparently silent but friendly on the site. Thank you for a good time and inspiring me to learn the plastic whip and gyro flop… [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/d/2/9/d29bdd39169b8ea9dc0742dd08ebb1bbf6f844be.jpeg "Plastic Whip.") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RNcPpnZYPk) Hope to catch up again soon jordan.
