So I have this like half way down. The first half I have down pretty good, but then when you reverse it is where I am screwing it up now.

Same. I did like 5 in a row as a repeater once yesterday, then immediately lost the feel on the next throw.

So I’m still stuck on this sling trick lol…man…try as I may, I just can not get my hands spinning in the opposite directions. I tried concentrating on it with no luck, then I tried to focus on other things so I wasn’t over thinking it…but yeah, that did nothing as well.
I wonder if this is something that will just ‘click’ eventually for us? Like it’ll just happen all the sudden and then we’ll have it down.
…
However, I made some big progress on Hidemasa Hooks tonight! I’m still a million miles away from hitting them consistantly…but dang it’s a fun one to land!!
Anyone have any really simple tricks I can go into with this? The string is wrapped around the axle and I don’t know anything else to do right now other than to dismount and then go into other tricks. I wonder if there’s something I can do without dismounting though?

Nice going making progress on the hook!

if you hit the hook then roll the yoyo to your left over your non throw hand index you’ll be in an undermount and you can bind from there
great job on the progress!

You guys should do Hidemasa soon. It was one of the first unresponsive tricks I learned and I found it useful for learning slack control.
I’d take the time to work on my consistency with 1.5 and maybe try to hit a 2.0 on video. I’ve been making some quick progress with 2.0 recently after seeing a Brandon Vu video that made it sorta click.

I like to roll three times, like 1 roll and then I guess it’s like a letter A or something.

WooHoo!!
BIG progress today guys!!
Finally started to click for me and I’m starting to get the first half of the trick down! haha…but then I have to do the reverse directions with my hands for the second part…and then my brain blanks out again!
I have a couple of videos I’m going to upload here in a minute…but they didn’t turn out well 
. I tried doing it in front of my tv which was doing a Christmas screensaver…but then you can hardly see my yo…then I readjusted, but my yo-yo was blending in with my wardrobe! haha >.<’
Anyhow…I’ll get those videos up here in a few!
How are you guys doing with this today?

Oh! And holy heck!
I spent about 10 minutes working on Hidemassa Hook as well…and I landed 10 of them during the session! 1 week ago I was having a heck of a time landing even 1 in 100 attempts! I made several realizations during today’s session on it…and it just started to click!
Loving this trick!!

My best attempt with the week 2 trick so far (and I made sure to record only using the green side of this yoyo for @twitch77’s viewing pleasure) :

Yeah that looks good.
I’ve about got it down, just need to film it. I should have cleared a space to setup my phone and done it today. Instead I took a break today to try to learn dumshot. Should have just beat my head against a brick wall.
