Nice combo man! I think you could catch on in the shorts world with your train tricks :thinking: ---

Anyone had someone come up to ask if you can do the DNA or God Speed yet? :joy: ---

No. Thank God! I can’t do either. But i get walk the dog regularly… a few times I’ve been asked to rock the baby and one guy asked me if i could shoot the moon (this was my favorite cause he was the only guy to ever ask). ---

I got asked both recently. And I can barely do a DNA. Let alone “god speed” :joy: ---

Might dedicate 2022 to learning a speed combo just so I can do a “Godspeed” :joy: DNA (or Finger spin and Helix bind to use the correct terminology) I can just about do.

Yeah one kid came up to me a few weeks ago and told me if I could do the dna and then of course I showed him a dna but I’m sooooo glad that he didn’t ask me to go Godspeed or worse Walk….the….dog… if that was the case I would probably run away acting like I have to leave or tell him that I can’t do the trick :joy: ---

It’s just a tern for a speed combo at a really high speed but i don’t think it’s any specific combo. ---

Just found this thread and am bookmarking it to learn all the tricks with you guys. I started last year in December, insane I couldn’t find this before. Good stuff! I’m going through the Pineapple Catch right now, learned Magic Drop a while ago. ---

It’s daunting at first, but you soon realise literally no one gives a sheet and no one actually looks. Everyone is so self absorbed, or on their phone they don’t really care and the only one who is feeling self conscious is actually just us. 😁 I yoyo everywhere. Our resident Train thrower @AKYOYOMIKE would probably agree that people don’t really give you issues for yoyoing 🥰 ---

I’ll have to agree with @MoonageMin 99% of the time people enjoy whatever I’m throwing, even if it’s just a very basic combo, if they are actually paying attention they are blown away. I would also say 90% of the time no one is paying attention so when i land that awesome trick and look up at my adoring audience i realize i might a well be alone in my room, thankfully i didn’t miss my stop. On rare occasion you spark a conversation with a stranger that used to yoyo 10 years ago or more and you make thier day, those are the moments i enjoy the most. ---

That’s because in high school it’s your classmates that knows you, not strangers. If I am throwing at the office of course people would look because they know me and are curious what I’m doing. 🤷‍♂️ I have nothing against throwing yo-yos at school, office etc. But do bear it mind that it’s pretty much asking for attention if you are doing something different in a crowd of people that knows you regardless of if that is school or whatever. If you don’t mind the attention why not keep on throwing 🕶. But if you want to avoid attention maybe throwing in school isn’t the best decision 😁 ---

Oh hey that’s even better, I can gather a plethora of old / new tricks alike! I’m an intermediate player who knows a few speed combos, horizontal comfortably, and am learning behind the back horizontal or fingers pointed down horizontal. That and a few tech elements or slack rejections still feel unfamiliar for me. Really appreciate the warm welcome. \<3 ---

Haven’t posted a video here for a while. So here is my Jersey Slide. 😁 I decided half way through that I should somehow make it a combo. Got as far as adding a poorly executed boingy boing as it’s got a similar look. But that was about as far as my combo creativity juice lasted :joy: [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/6/0/e/60efa4a1da2e670f20b9da952ed6c32eefeadad3.jpeg "Jersey Slide") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dYFTawcVgsY) [Previous page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/moonagemins-trick-a-week-2021-finished-check-out-taw-2022/331811.md?page=46) [Next page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/moonagemins-trick-a-week-2021-finished-check-out-taw-2022/331811.md?page=48)
