THIS POST IS SPONSORED BY BUBBLES. HEADS UP. Hello people of Earth, Jupiter and Antarctica! Recently, I have had an interesting idea in my mind. I present to you, the Double or Nothing Experiment. The concept here is very simple. Promote creativity! šŸ˜ƒ Steps to doing this are as followsā€¦ Step 1: Learn Double or Nothing Step 2: Make a new combo/trick starting with a double or nothing Step 3: Post a video of the new combo in this thread! There is no time limit whatsoever, so this allows you to work on your idea for any length of time. I will have a vid in here soon as well. Have fun and go crazy! Questions? Ask below! EDIT: it appears that Graeme Stellar did this in the past way before this thread was created. i guess this could be a 2.0 kinda deal :wink: ---

I have a double or nothing combo already posted up here. Iā€™m sure everyone here knows me mostly from my videos of always starting out in a double or nothing ---

All my tricks begin with a snap start. Because the yoyo died in the trick before it and I had to take out a knot. ---

Iā€™m still working on it, using an element from a Cabin tutorial but trying to continue the trick on my own. Iā€™ll hopefully get something recorded tomorrow if I figure out where I want to take this trick. ---

My double or Nothing Experiment: Hope everyone enjoys the video. Please comment below your feedback and thought on it. Please. Its the only way I will get better. Also let me know if any of them help you out. The Last two tricks on the video are repeater tricks I made up all by myself. I call the first one ā€œNewtonā€™s Cradleā€ and the second one, some might have already seen on here. called ā€œBuddhaā€™s Matrixā€ Please relax and enjoy. Thank you. - Colby [url=[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQ7CO8I3Qfw[/url]](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQ7CO8I3Qfw%5B/url%5D) ---

Look up the Code 3 thing that Graeme Steller did a few years ago; that is basically this (he had people start in a double or nothing mount and then go from there). ---
