Love the long exhale after hitting this! Suggests many attempts were required. Is this the case or did you hit it first try on camera?

This is a stall version of Gondola, my favorite picture trick!

I’m new to throwing on camera so go easy on me, I realized too late that my shirt matched my string but I was 4 miles up the trail without a change of clothes.

Hello. What about fixie grinds? I haven’t heard much about them, outside tape measures and Jensen’s triple finger grind on his “I should shut up” video.

Impulse purchased a Butterly XT while grocery shopping yesterday. I haven’t figured out the family tree yet, but I swear this thing is related to the legend wing. After deshielding, cleaning, and thick-lubing the bearing, this thing responds like a champ.

As you can see I dedicated this one to modern responsive-freehand… 0.5a? 5.0a? :thinking:

I love @DocPop 's 1a popcasts, and #33 modern responsive-freehand didn’t disappoint either!

Hi folks. Recently a couple of old yoyos found their way to me and i’ve been having a lot of fun with them. I gave them a quick test with a varial or some string tricks.

First of them is a BC Spitfire, which dates as early as 1997. Who knows what years is the one i got.

[![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/d/6/3/d631dfcfe687c3dc95701188cb90df4cb2122d98.jpeg "BC Spitfire yoyo") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwcIjlKebJc)

Next is a Cheerio Glitter Spin. The foil sticker and jewels on it have seen better days. A quick search dates this ones as early as 1947. Again, who know what year is the one i got.

[![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/9/5/c/95c10127a9ddd5e413c951d7e9a5e49f64ee4122.jpeg "Cheerio Glitter Spin yoyo") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zft9X6Juh_c)

Finally is a very weird and unknown yoyo called the Cyclone. Who knows who made this yoyo and when, but the construction of this yoyo is interesting. Plastic body, steel axle and wooden sleeve + plastic starburst. This yoyo sleeps for a surprisingly long time for its construction, and can even handle a couple of string tricks.

As seen on [Fixed Axle Friday Throws](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/fixed-axle-friday-throws/294546/1475) . Here is a simple trick variation based off of @Chainsawctopus Coin Flip on Bandalores. I know new players are always asking for some easier tricks. Start with a Bottom Mount Stall, do a little Kendama leg squat, catch on your fist do a Coin Flip and catch the regen. Work your way up to a Lunar Stall catch and have fun.

Nothing fancy but i was amazed to start landing brother trap stalls regularly. 0A is very hypnotic once you’re in the groove.
