Daaaamn, that looked great.
What a hypnotizing trick especially when it’s done smoothly like you did!

I learned the trick, not perfect but damn this one was so tricky for me to film for some reason. I can not for the life of me succeed the rejection part right after the first star from the combo on camera…
Also threw in #8 picture slideshow!
Super awesome tutorial from @MoonageMin! You should add the link of the slow-mo only with commentary version on the first post! It was a massive help to learn it.

T-A-W WEEK #32 1.5 HOOK
Here’s a neat one! It’s a step up from a previous trick we did here (Hidemasa Hook).
1.5 hook!
Looks really flashy and it’s super nice because it ends in a Trap+Bro so it can fit into combos extremely easily!
I hope everyone is staying safe

So i landed this nice TaW combo last night. Ive been playing with kwigibo smoothie duck pond for a while but i throw a whip and a brother vanish in and i think it flows nicely.
Back to these hooks, I’ll try to Get either hook down this week. Think i need to whip a lot stronger or faster to get these hooks.

That’s a really good looking combo!
I love that vanish between the kamikaze and the smoothie.
Mexican Duck Pond makes for a great finisher!
Same problem here. Actually I think I throw the hidemasa hook too strong, and the 1.5 not enough.
Let’s do this!

Well if you guys are doing 1.5, I might do it a long with you… @AKYOYOMIKE you better watch out for me lol.

For 1.5 hook, it helps immensely if you use a string that is weighty and maintains momentum through both parts of the hook. You can do it with any string, but it’s much harder.

Well, perfect timing! 
Between the Markmont Formulas I got recently and some really awesome prototypes made by @Arlequinlover, I’m blessed with whippy strings lately!
Although I do have to admit that after trying for a little bit, I’m not even remotely close to succeed the 1.5 mount lol

Not gonna lie, this had my scratching my head for a little while before that Aha! moment hit on how to make the catch. Trying to practice in front of a fan didn’t help either 
Also love the combo @AKYOYOMIKE! And @stringKnot solid star combo with bonuses! I dig the black and white look going on too

Well, after a small hour of trying non-stop I finally landed it unexpectedly !
In total, only managed to land it twice. I estimate it at a 1% success rate lol!
Here’s one of the very rare videos in which I won’t crop my face

First, i had made fast string. But after some recommendations from many players. I start to make slow string for slacks rather for whip.
Maybe you should try the fat string proto (28 thread). If you have it.

Goodness 28 thread, that’s a lot lol.
Hmm, hard to count the nylon threads but I think the thickest one I got was the 50/50 Nylon/Poly (I think it’s 24 threads as I count 12 Poly).
But all of your protos I tried are really whippy in my opinion, it’s night and day compared to Kitty XL or 1.5!
Markmont Copernicus/Dragon are even more whippy, they’re almost like little chains haha! So I’m using those to get the hang of the hook
