Hi there, I’ve been into yoyos almost all my life. Most of it being throwing the responsive 2 second sleep time plastic junk that was available in my local markets. But then i saw gentry’s 2015’s Nationals and it opened a whole new world of professional yoyos to me.  
I didn’t have much money in middle school but my friend who was richer bought a magic yoyo t5 and i used to play with it and learnt the basic bind and very basic tricks on it.  
Fast forward to right in the beginning of 2020 I bought my first unresponsive yoyo and had a blast with it…  
Soon I added my dream yoyo at the time the replay pro in my arsenal and oh boy I had FUN with it. things went on and I bought a few more yoyos for my collection.

But then Idk what went wrong I just quit yoyoing all together and my yoyos were collecting dust in a corner. But recently I’ve picked up yoyoing again and I want to learn advanced yoyo tricks but I am a bit confused and all over the place regarding what to learn. Can anyone recommend me some tricks and combos to learn ? I can comfortably do the first 50 yotricks and tricks like yuuki slack and a few more.

Sorry for the whole story but I just wanted to write :wink:

> Every Friday we’ll be posting a tutorial in this thread for us all to learn over the next week. It helps to view this thread not as a rush to learn a single tutorial every week, but instead to be exposed to and attempt a new trick every week. The idea is that you’ll be able to take away some new elements and ideas from each tutorial to add to your trick repertoire, and you can revisit any past weeks as you desire. Take as much time as you need on single “week.” Please share when you’re strugglin…

Please check out the trick a week thread! Each week we learn new tricks together. This weeks is a little difficult but click around and check out some past weeks to see some cool tricks and find something around your level. Maybe start with the figure 8 rail from when we did the rewind tutorial bonanza a few weeks ago.

My favourite unresponsive tricks, in order of difficulty are:

- Double or Nothing
- Kwijibo
- Spirit Bomb (this one took me a long time to master)

These are all side style tricks so you will be best to get a good feel for throwing breakaway - which I remember took me a while to get the hang of when I started.

Have fun!  
Alex

Henry pointed out the TAW thread!! Great place to handpick a few that you like. Do keep in mind that at the top of the thread there are links to past years! It’s a great resource for a ton of stuff! It could keep you busy for well, the next 4 years. Maybe 4 months if your learning curve is as quick as Henry’s 😃 GL and welcome back.
