Before anyone else asks: I don’t think they’re asking you specifically to do Spirit Bomb. That was just an example. :wink:

However,

I am going to do Spirit Bomb.

Blindfolded!

Just 'Coz.

They confirmed my suspicion on FB: Spirit Bomb was only used as an example. You should be busting out the dopest trick that you’re able to do blindfolded. 😃

Confirmed - Any trick, just has to be blindfolded and follow the instructions.  
Prize is to be announced, but every other contest has been for a MFD throw, so it’ll likely be the same.

Ah, my bad-- I thought I had read it would be for a yoyo, but if the prize is unannounced, I shouldn’t have spoken so soon!

well heres mine! originally had the bandana rolled up all the way like a traditional blindfold, but I guess the bridge of my nose is too big cause I could still see out of the bottom, so I pulled it down infront of my face more. this was fun! thanks MonkeyFingerDesign!!!

thanks bro! I was kinda skeptical to post it cause I thought some kid would say I cheated or something cause the bandana wasn’t traditionaly wrapped, but that eli hop proves that I couldn’t peek hahaha. it took me like twelve times to land that combo! thanks bro! hahaha and yea I liked the celebration to hahahaaa

You guys are ill! I have no illusion that I’m going to win with it, but I’m still working on landing a blindfolded Spirit Bomb. I’ve tried over a dozen times now (when I can find a bit of time here and there!) and the one time I landed it, I failed the bind. Not a complete trick until the yoyo’s back in your hand, right? :wink:

All my disclaimers and apologies are in the video description on YouTube, but I’ll copy/paste them here, stating again: man, I wish I had at least gotten that bind even if I couldn’t eliminate all my pauses. :wink:

OK. I’mma prove it. :wink: Really wish I had stuck the first bind, so as to look like an absolute boss. But enough takes went into capturing this that I thought I’d cut my losses.

Before anyone asks: I admit in the video it looks all shadowy under the bottom of the sleeping blind, which might lead one to believe I can sneak a peek. Trust me, I cannot! If anything, I found it uncomfortably tight across my eyeballs."
