I really dig this week’s pick. All the picks so far have been great actually.
The other day I showed this slack to my wife. She says" remember when you’d look at stuff like this and think ā€˜no way’ ?"
I love that my progress has reached a new milestone. Hope everyone is making there own marks too.

I totally agree! When I first saw this trick I thought ā€œno way, why did they take such a huge jump?ā€

After breaking it down its not all that hard and ya, fun! I learned Spirit Bomb not too long ago and like this trick, looks so hard at first. When you finally get control you realize that you’re making major progress. !!F-YA!!

What’s boggling to me is that one little element (3 sec) in the 3 minute routine takes this long to master. While it seems like such a huge goal, learning all these element, I’m quickly realizing that it is what you make of it. So many variations to make these your own. So many opportunities to make it sing, flow and come together! I’m so happy to have found my new meditation.

I’m very much looking forward to all the permeations for the next 49!

But since you asked, here you go :joy:

Thanks for posting something. Need some people pushing a bit with me else I will lose interest I guess.
The tension slack is pretty doable when you watch YoYoJoes video once or twice and look at his hands/fingers precisely. The tricky part is the swing and slack at once (at least for me it was).

I would post if i could land this. I just realized after the flip i was having the wrong string . But i got the first slack move down. This is a very cool trick and very doable I’m just really slow.
PickledCatch is still killing me.
I will keep attempting each trick daily till get it… or honestly i give myself no other option.

Yesterday the tension slack just kind of clicked for me but I couldn’t even explain why if I tried lol. At first I think I was keeping my hands too far apart for the slack to come all the way around to the back.

Love it! Be the grind

Nice! Theres a weavy combo I’ve been working on for a while and I haven’t thought about the pinwheels!

The pinwheels kinda feel wrong. The others feel better together.
