I make it a point not to break or steal my kids’ toys 
Just kidding, I just can’t find one that’s close to the right weight

lol poor Ryan…I swear the universe is trying to give him a sign.
Tried to send him some counterweights…they broke out of the box during shipping and were lost.
So he got himself a Freehan AL…it didn’t come with the counterweight it was suppose to come with…

I need some mini green rubber duckies!

Tips?
Well…you’re pretty far behind at this point so I’d start with this trick and go from there…

Hmmm… letting go of the counterweight turned out not to be a problem for me. Trying not to wake up the wife and kids, OTOH… My son is gonna have so much fun chasing around my yo-yos when they roll across the floor. Tomorrow will be fun.
Man, that felt sooo weird landing a trapeze in reverse the first time.

Consistent Bee Stings are hard, if you can get them in a week mad props. One of my favorite 5A videos with Shigo Terada doing Bee Stings with ease playing a Küntosh.

Ok, I’m catching up. Done all the basics except the 360. I love the brother mount switch; that’s so fun, almost meditative.

It felt weird at first. I didn’t want to let go of the counterweight on that one. So I just let go once and it clicked while I was doing it.

I love brother switch. It’s “home” position when I flow.

Been trying for bee stings for a while now. I lose it when I get to the undermount as I’m not quite sure what’s supposed to happen. I know the trick starts with a 360 and the CW ends up doing another rotation around while I hop the yoyo up and over into the undermount. Am I supposed to just roll from the undermount back into the trapeze or something?

I landed a couple decent bee stings today and one reverse which I think was pure luck.
Basic stalls are giving me a hard time though. It seems like I cant get the right amount a momentum into the cw. Its either flailing like a tossed rock or blazing around my fingers and wrapping in the yoyo.
