Sorry for skipping over your comment Eos :frowning:

Thanks for the suggestion on Miguelā€™s channel! TONS of great stuff there!

Weā€™re always open for suggestions and ideas :slight_smile: ā€¦I gotta be honest though, Iā€™m personally afraid suggestions from you are going to be beyond my current skill levels :dizzy_face:

Thanks @AKYOYOMIKE, and @MoonageMin. Itā€™s a cool trick, and the kind I have the most trouble withā€”not terribly hard step by step, but making it flow is hard and what makes it look good. Iā€™m gonna keep working on this one.

But Iā€™m ready for a break, gonna try to start 5a today. That should be funā€¦ or funny :grin:

I donā€™t think I made myself clear lol. What i meant is, from the vast selection of tutorials that Miggy has on his channel, I could give you some suggestions on specific tutorials that could be beneficial for your 5A learning regimen, as it is mostly based off the tutorial order YoTricks has. Miggy uses quite a different approach and level system compared to what YoTricks does, specially because YoTricksā€™ tutorials is quite a bit weak mount-wise, and Miggy recommends learning those early on.

The reason Iā€™m telling you all of this (lol) is because weā€™ve hosted 5A May learning events in the past, and those have seemed to work very very well for people who have never done 5A before.

Loving 5A and having a blast with it so far! A few general thoughts as I practiced today:

  • My catch still sucks
  • I think I should make my string even shorter
  • Still keep catching a bit too far ahead of the cw sometimes causing it to get wrapped up

Good news is my playdoh counterweight came out to 10g on pure luck! Also, I now have an excuse to buy another plastic yoyo!

Still struggling with bee stings but finally got a little brave and went for a 5a grind (as seen on Dylan Kowalskiā€™s channel). It ended with a runaway yoyo. I am amazed at how well delrin takes a beating. I might try this again with another thatā€™s a little more beat up.

Half bee sting is almost there, itā€™s tricky getting the yoyo to pop over a finger when the weight is swinging around the opposite way.

Electric Fanā€¦ Hahaha yea, not happening. My brain disallows this trick to happen.
