Gemma welcome!

Guys, I met Gemma just over a month ago and the UK Southern Regional Contest.
She was amazing, and she showed me this trick and I knew I wanted to learn this, so this was the inspiration for the tricks a week challenge.

So I guess you can say, the person who inspired me to make this trick a week challenge,
is now the person who is inspired by how all of you have joined in and motivated yourself to keep getting better, and having fun. @JustAnotherYoYoEr

Thank you Gemma not just for your tutorial, but for inspiring me to make this challenge to begin with.

I learnt this week’s (your) trick using the string you gave me, it felt very fitting way to use the string. :slight_smile:

Guys, Gemma is one of the most awesome person you can meet in real life, as much as she does on camera.

I’m legit impressed you were able to land the underleg whip! lol


I’m making some progress on tihis, though still not very smoothly or fast. I still hesitate…especially on the last bit of the trick (getting into that weird under mount).
I’ll get a video up today or tomorrow…been a pretty busy week for me (haha excuses excuses!!)

I find it easier to try and go straight into it and use the momentum as a helping hand.

Yeah, I’ve found the same to be true myself.
Same with the 1.5 mount…the momentum pretty much guides the yo directly into the string.

Yeah man! You’ve got this trick down! :smiley: Loved the hook at the beginning…and is that a new bind you’ve created at the end? :rofl:

2 Likes

It’s called the boingy bind lol ^^;;;

I thought you might like that you asked before what can be combined with the hook, this is my answer :slight_smile:
