Very nice and smooth man!
haha this was WAAAAAAAY too easy for you!! Nice job @ChrysaeThrows!!
You Dominated that one! Sweet.
Okay, Iām starting to get Jackās Slack complete with the suicide, dismount and a bind!
Hit 5 of them just now in one of my practice sessions. Will get a video up eventually this weekend .
smooth.
very nice.

Had to do jackās slack (heās one of mk1ās sponsored players!). Hereās an easier way to do the suicide - just pinch all the strings. Kind of feels like a brother slack when you do this.
That was beautifulā¦ that pink yoyo and the musicā¦ your very talented. I think im in loveā¦ with the throw not u. But seriously that was very cool.
Hey guys
I want to apologize for this Trick-A-Week Challenge being a bit messy over the last couple of months. Poor Moons has been super busy with life, and my motivation levels have been up and down. Iāve not been as energetic or enthusiastic as I enjoy being.
But weāre moving right along!
ā¦
ā¦
So I asked a friend of mine for some suggestions on tricks for this upcoming weekās challenge and he gave me a couple of great ones.
One in particular really excited me. Itās flashy looking, but also very simple (though it would be a challenge to learn and to get consistent at)ā¦and the really cool thing about it is that itās something super easy to add into other tricksā¦you can do it from a trapeze and itās easy to flow into all sorts of other thingsā¦so itās a super cool, flashy element to work into combos moving forward.
Butā¦
Itās another slack/hook/whip trick.
Weāve done the Ninja Vanish and Jackās Slack these last couple of weeksā¦
Are you guys interested in keeping this going and working on another? Or would you rather move on to something else for this up coming week?
- Whips/Slacks/Hooks
- Something Different
- Green Is The Bestest Ever!!
I voted for the only logical option presented in this poll.
That was a hilarious, very classic @twitch77 way of removing yourself from the poll, and giving people an āI donāt careā option. u bro!
Edit: whoops, I accidentally some of my post. I also meant to say that youāve been doing a great job regardless of everything going on.
I voted green
Burr seriously, if the trick is cool, post it. Look for something different next time.
Iāve been having fun with these slack/whips.

I agree you guys are doing great running this. Everyone goes at thier pace anywayā¦ ur picks have been great @twitch77ā¦ all good. No stress bro just pick what looks cool to you.
Thanks for the feedback and the votes guys! I really appreciate it!
And though there are no right or wrong answers to this pollā¦everyone of you who didnāt vote for green got it wrong and are getting Fās for this weekās challenge!
I win!
@NitroBobby916 A++!
Iāve gotta admitā¦this trick has been pretty difficult to get down for me. Anyone else struggle at all with this one?
I still struggle to whip the string into the gapā¦and then to do so properly. This is absolutely a trick I enjoy very much though and will continue to work on it just like I work on many of the previous tricks from this challenge.
I really like how it transitions super easily into a houdini mount so I can combo off of it.
Like into a Kamikaze
Or a Triple Tower (with the tower being so tall that it canāt be seen by the camera! haha )
Hereās a redo on the tower:
And I really like this little combo with Jackās Slack into Mexican Duck Pond
Trick-A-Week Week #16 Reverse Hook
Thanks again guys for the votes!
So continuing on a bit more with whips/slacks/hooksā¦this weekās trick is the Reverse Hook (or Reverse Hidemasa Hook, or Reverse Yo-Yo Trapeze Whip).
This one looks tough to me, but also very rewarding. Itās flashy looking and I really like it because it starts in a trapeze and can be a great flashy little element to add into combos.
Iām hoping to get this one down as I can imagine this being one of my goto elements that I throw into tricks where I can.
Iām not finding a whole lot of tutorials on this oneā¦if anyone knows of some, mind sharing them?
ā¦
ā¦
ā¦
Also, I donāt think itās completely necessaryā¦but it should be easier to learn if you learn the regular Hidemasa Hook first.
Thatās a trick that I leart not much time ago, and it really changed my play. Iām happy that you choosed it for this challenge.
Iāve not seen all tutorials but make sure your string torsion is neutral when you start practice it. Then you will be able to land it in every conditions, but the first times it really helps to have no torsion.
