A video I wanted to make. Shows my progress in 4a and a homemade combo.

Pencil above right ear. Nice bind on the off-string the end. Iā€™m not anywhere near that on 1A or 4A. Still having fun. Today, Iā€™m working on a rolling trapeze and bro to a ninja vanish. I CAN do it, Iā€™m just trying to improve the consistency. ---

Sometimes I surprise myself. This is clearly one of those times. But, this is one of those tricks where eve though Iā€™ve had no help getting this one together, I was shown by theroybit how to do Ninja Vanish, which gave me the confidence to try this one. So, I strongly recommend throwing with others for the challenge and the further enjoyment. Heā€™s shown me all the GTā€™s I know and helped with quite a few other tricks. Hereā€™s the video: [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/c/8/1/c81b1377c6a1582d41375afcba9e432ac0ddd6f6.jpeg "Ninja Vanish Yoyo Trick - a GT Slack String Trick.") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4j_-8Uy62oI) Itā€™s the trick he goes into after talking about the main trick, which I actually learned from TMCertified. What I do want to learn is how to get out of that mount by doing a series of underpasses and I end up I think in a trapeze. I just have to find my video on that. I like to have options for getting in and out of stuff. Kind of doing combos while learning. Iā€™m trying to get into the habit of ā€œkeeping things movingā€. ---
