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

I think the second attempt was probably the smoothest

no No NO!
Again!

Faster, stronger, better!!!

lol :stuck_out_tongue:

Very nice progress man!
I don’t know about you, but this is an oddly satisfying trick.

I haven’t picked a yo up today yet, but I’m getting closer and closer! I yoed for a bit last night before heading to bed and I feel like I’m just about there!

Haha thanks man. It was super satisfying but I kind of want to try something else and come back to it as I think a slight break from doing this over and over again might actually help me get smoother by returning to it another day :slight_smile:
Awesome that I have a new trick to add to my limited front style trick repertoire

Hehe I have one I picked over a week ago already.
But it’s conditional on my friend finishing her assignments before the weekend. If not it will be pushed back to a subsequent week. And I’ll pick something else :slight_smile:

Haha actually it’s not it’s a precursor to the spirit bomb which I wanted to learn for the trick ladder. Kind of unrelated unless we decide to do spirit bomb one week :slight_smile:

GUYS!!!

I’ve got it! And some of them are really smooth too! :heart:

I’ll post a video for this week in the next couple of days.

I threw on a new string and made it longer than I’ve been using lately…I think it’s made a big difference on this trick.

I’m also continuing to get better and better at Hidemassa Hooks! Damn I love that trick! I’m starting to hit 2 or 3 of them in a row and getting 10 of them (not in a row) only takes me a few minutes now!
If I continue working on this one…I bet within just a few months I’ll be hitting it really consistently! :smiley:

I also hit a couple of combos I’m working on tonight. They’re hit and miss with me…sometimes I nail them…sometimes not.

The last couple of days have been dang good days for me as far as yoing is going. Man it feels cool to make some strides!

Also…I’m in love with this week’s Sling trick. It’s super soothing to me. I stand there and do attempt after attempt one after another and it’s almost like meditating. lol I know I’m a dork! But it just feels so good and satisfying!

I /bro luv you guys!

Oh, I was going to say that I’m also stuck with it where @ryanmcg is…at repeating it. But even this feels super close for me…I think I’m probably just a day or 2 away from being able to repeat the trick 2 or 3 times!

Yeah, good trick man. I like it a lot, and it is almost soothing, even when I’m messing it up. Except when filming, then every mistake is irritating.

Exactly :smiley:

Here’s it repeated, not quite as smooth as I was hoping though:
