I cut the video down to just a fraction of the failure. I love that I finally landed it and then blew the bind. I should have just filmed my practice session, that went so much better :rofl:

haha that gave me such a nice chuckle for some reason! :sweat_smile:
And it may not be a face reveal…but at least we got a chin reveal! lol :stuck_out_tongue:

Also, awesome job on actually landing the trick minus the bind! That’s great man!!

Well I should be able to land it, since I learned it over a year ago. A 6 month, 3 month, and 2 week hiatus really screws things up. Stupid injured spine. Oh, and I’ve posted my face here before.

Off topic lol…just noticed your shirt. Are you a DC Flash fan? I have a friend who’s a major nerd when it comes to the Flash haha.
Do you read the comics? I’m not a huge comic reader, but I’ve read a couple of Flash graphic novels (flashpoint was great!).

Yeah, I love all those (arrowverse) shows. I grew up reading X-Men more than anything else, hence the x-men half-sleeve on my right arm. Second only to X-men was Spider-man. I don’t read a lot of DC atm, but I have a decent sized new 52 collection (most of what was good) and some other stuff, and I read Flashpoint not too long ago—that was fantastic.

Also, I’m always close to a year behind on comics because I wait for the trade paperbacks.

Just read all of the original Runaways to my daughter, and she absolutely loved it. Now she’s getting into comics. :slight_smile:

Now I just need to get her throwing, and her conversion to the nerd side will be complete.

Id love to participate now and then, but considering im about Twitch’s level im sure you guys will leave me in the dust soon. Ive tried learning Kamikaze in the past, but my magic drop rate is so low that im better off just practicing that instead. It’s one of those ‘looks easy but isnt’ elements and is probably the only part of this trick I find difficult. If I find the time ill definitely try and learn the trick this week.

Awesome.
I think it will be great if you join us. And together we can rule the galaxy.

I am still at work and haven’t go round to checking out what the trick looks like yet :frowning:

So you are already way ahead of me. I don’t know how to do magic drop yet either.
At this rate I’ll be the only one who fails the first weeks challenge.

Practiced in front of camera a bit, but still not comfortable filming myself. I feel like I have to hurry. A slight improvement though.

Nice. I like how you do the last part after the magic drop. I tend to hit an extra string when I do it fast.

Guys!..I just hit a Kamikaze from start to finish complete with a bind!

…okay, so it barely looked like an actual Kamikaze cause it was so choppy and slow…but I did hit every element in the trick!
Will be continuing to pound away on it…hopefully I’ll have it smooth enough to post a decent enough video by this weekend :D.

That’s awesome man. Kamikaze is kind of a stuttery trick anyway. Just hit the elements and call it a day :smiley:
