After 5 months, I finally decided I was good enough to drop my first video. My equipment and software wasn’t too good so pardon the unprofessional appearance. I think the tricks came out pretty well, and comprise most of the routine I’ve made for the NER next week.  
  
Note: If you’re wondering how the name came about, I was originally going to film outside, but it was too windy and kind of chilly, so the idea just stuck.

Bump. Feedback of any kind would really mean a lot to me.

No need to bump the same day, it’s still on the first page :wink:

I liked the last bind! You should record and post your full routine without cuts sometime.

Really good! About twice as good as me, in about half the time. 🙂 You’re going to make a solid showing at NER.

Nice music choice! Not too many people your age would pick that song.

Thanks! And sorry for bumping prematurely, I was just kinda anxious. Right now my consistency level still isn’t high enough to be able to do it perfectly in one take, but in 5 days (the contest) I can confidently say I’ll be able to do (most of it) without any huge mistakes. I’m trying to get a group of friends with filmmaking skills together sometime soon to make a professional-looking one.

@GregP  
Thanks you very much! As for the song, I first heard it in the IM video with Chuck and Jensen and then in Chuck’s BAC routine and really loved it! Since I started throwing I’ve noticed that my musical taste (and personality) have become a lot more chill and funky.

Thanks man! I’ve always known them as Japan Hops but yeah, they add a nice bit of flair.

Thanks for the good feedback so far guys. Any kind of constructive criticism? I’m always looking for ways to improve my style. Also, I’ve (sort of) put together a small group of friends to help me make a professional-looking video in the near future.
