Overall, great video. Your diabolo skills are freaking insane, your 1D tricks are amazing. And as for the yoyoing, I really enjoyed watching your 1A - lots of good tricks.

The yoyoing was top-notch, but the video needed some improvement. When you took off your jacket, the tricks were against your white shirt, it was really tough to see the string. Also, there was enough content to fill 2 or 3 videos. You should’ve split it into more videos. A lot of times yoyoers don’t have enough attention to finish the whole video (trust me, I’ve heard this before on multiple occasions).

But other than some of those minor flaws, really awesome job.

P.S. I’m seeing Fall Out Boy tonight and found it funny/coincidental how you used that song in your video.

Best regards,  
Ryan

This coming from you… That makes me so insanely proud.  
I’m glad you enjoyed this! and I hope you enjoy that Concert man!

And I guess, I’ll try and do some splitting next time!

You’ve developed some great talent and style. I’m not sure the music went well with your… laundry basket though. Get outside.

Yes, a bit too long and it would be nice to see a few different locations… either outside or “inside” somewhere more interesting. Different camera angles would be good, too.

But that’s all about the filmmaking. The tricks themselves were great!

Haha, my issue with outside, is I don’t have. Tripod. I use my desk and a bunch of small boxes to keep my camera up!

I can’t afford a tripod currently. I plan on getting outside whenever I can can splurge on a Tripod.  
I think my best solution. Get a big black curtain for my background. Then film :wink:

You can prop the camera up outside…prop it on a small wall, on a bench, on a picnic table, maybe on a rock? Try new things 🙂 I agree, your location does get boring after a while…
