MoonageMin & Twitch's Trick-a-Week Challenge! (2020)

The key to the basic stall is moving the non throw hand along with the counterweight to kill its momentum and redirect it. I found giving it a gentle arc toss up and over and then moving the non throw hand along with its motion helped. When the weight moves momentum, move the non throw hand back outward along with the counterweight to help aid its momentum to swing back up and over. Be ready to catch.

And for the record, ostriches are mean and aggressive birds. I think they were in heat when we were there.

Thanks so much @ryanmcg. Not bad for some guys that wanted to be professional raversšŸ˜‰

Weā€™re way overdue for a new promo vid though. Maybe Iā€™ll shoot a short fire eating video this weekend. I can shoot the moon with that too. And thereā€™s a trick called shoot the river (pretty tough one).

I know itā€™s not this weekā€™s workā€¦ but i did this tonight after a long day of 2AƗ5Aā€¦ which equally 10Aā€¦ not my best jokeā€¦

so i figured Iā€™d take a break tonightā€¦ maybe Michael Jackson messing with my head :sunglasses:. Anyway i got a kick out .if this, this was tonightā€™s play listā€¦ some smoother then others. Heavily influenced by TaW so i figured itā€™s acceptable.

Ooh heist how she play?

Heist is great. Actually very playable. I need practice, but i can land most my tricks with it for now just not very consistentlyā€¦ but after 20 min on the heist playing a normal yoyo seems easier.
If your looking for another mini to complement your mini Slepinir (?) You wonā€™t be disappointedā€¦ and i think itā€™s cheaper :wink:. Iā€™m not trying to persuade u to buy anything but i donā€™t think you actually bought anything in 2 daysā€¦

Has this become my image? Oh god :open_mouth:

I actually bought b-grade edgeless yesterday in the YYF A-May-Zing b-grade saleā€¦:sweat_smile:

$20 for an edgeless is such a stupid good deal.

Itā€™s all your fault by the way haha. The Freehand AL you gifted me is so fantabulously amazing. I had to try another hollow yoyo :slight_smile:

have you been using the AL for freehand? lol Iā€™m too chicken to still. Iā€™m really good at chucking my yo onto the groundā€¦and itā€™s not so much the fear of dinging the AL up, itā€™s more of the fear of dropping it and causing a cap to pop out or to ding it in a way that makes it vibe real bad or something.

umā€¦

I can neither confirm nor deny that I have been dropping your present on the floor more than 5 times while playing it for its intended purposeā€¦ :pleading_face:

Nice man. That looked pretty hard, but fun. Duck pond looked so cool with that mini.

I find paying on the heist, and on my deep state, which is the slimmest yoyo im willing to actually play, iis a great target practice.
