Sure thing, dude. We are all the fourth horse in one way or another. The trick is seeing the value in it.

I don’t know if this counts as a mod or maintenance. But I just switched my beloved Butterfly XT from sewing machine oil to silicone grease.

Absolute game changer, I have loved my XT from first throw, but as the starburst broke in its responsiveness was failing. Add some silicone grease and it plays like my Weekender.

Sorry if im way too excited for this, I started 0A as a new year resolution and have been having more fun than I thought

I know neither of these by these names and my Google-foo is letting me down. So I can’t tell if this is a serious reply or in jest. Got any tutorial videos handy?

Banana Slide

Only that one because I’m afraid bounce house is akin to boingy boing and I absolutely, vehemently despise that trick. However, I found the above by searching within the YYE forum

Thanks - I don’t know why I didn’t start searching here. I usually jump to YT and then Google itself - and I was finding Banana Turnover and Bouncy Castle - both are not 0A. 😲

And after searching here - where I should have started - I found Bounce House.

Not boingy boing, but it still involves bouncing, and that’s a sin. Heresy if you will

Somethin like:

Honestly Split the Atom is tech enough to melt 99% of non-initiated brains. Loop into a little Varial and throw in a Fly-away Shoot-the-Moon and you’ve got a nice little automatic combo w somethin for everyone. 🙂

I’ve heard people say “Cold Fusion” was the hardest trick of the late 90s… but I think it would have been Split the Atom. (I’ve done Cold Fusion on a Fixie, but not Split the Atom)
