Ok, so I finally feel that Im ready to tackle spirit bomb. Ive been workingonit about a week and have the first pop down over 75% ofthe time. But, Ive never landed the 2nd pop… At all… Never… Ive literally landed on every other string on the 2nd pop instead of the right one… Any tips? ---

Ugh…I have the same problem. I can do the first pop with ease and it’s been like that for a couple months but I have never EVER been able to get the second pop. I REALLY want to get this trick down because it is on the sports ladder which I will be competing in at Worlds this year. HELP ME!!! BTW If you are participating in sports ladder at Worlds this year check out my thread called “Sports Ladder Competitors @ WYYC 2013”. ---

Just keep at. All you can do is keep throwing and then all of a sudden bam you will get it. It’s a hard hop but so much fun when you get it. Good luck!!! ---

I FINALLY DID IT!!! I was doing the second hop all wrong, but then I rewatched the YoTricks tutorial and I just landed it! ---

Did Spirit Bomb get its name from Dragon Ball Z ? ---

Its just like an underpass with your freehand except it jumps as your freehand goes under. ---

Practice, or honestly skip it. No reason to learn it imo. It doesn’t look good and isn’t a particularly fun or compelling trick, so no need to worry about it. ---

I was pretty lucky… after watching tons of tutorials for this tricks before I tried it… got it on first try a week ago… could now get it 50% of the time ---
