Haha! Not many of us would even be able to recommend one over the other. Glad you picked one, though!
Yooldman, that’s some good stuff!
Ed, amazing!
I didn’t know if it mattered lol. What string do you guys use for fixies?
Cotton all the way. Especially for wood-axled fixies. (metal-axled Butterfly yoyos and such don’t have to be cotton, but for wood it’s a must!)
I’m using YYE type-10 that’s only available in 100 packs.
Awesome, I just wanted to be sure! Happy Throwing!!!
awesome u rock DUNCAN BUTTERFLIES O YEAH!!!
You can also use slick 8
version 3.0 - yep. 5 minutes. evidently i yo-yo a lot seeing as this is just from the last couple months. i feel like some of it is pretty rad though. a few werrds in there, but everything else is fixed axle.
Just popped out a video that is 75% Onedrop Valor, but there’s also a couple combos on a Duncan Butterfly and Imperial, as well as my TMBR Turner. Minimal tearing.
So I posted photos of my newest fixed axle series on the OUT facebook page (Redirecting...) and I had a follower message me asking if it would be possible to achieve a finger spin on them since there is a little hub space; I jokingly said that after seeing what Ed Haponik can do with a fixed axle, I wouldn’t rule anything out.
So, what do you guys think? I’m sure alot of you have attempted horizontal play on a fixed axle, but what was your success of performing anything worthy of calling a trick? I’d love to see some vids of horizontal fixie tricks
lol. i’ve done a lot of sideways/horizontal/off-plane stuff (mainly just ufo recapture stuff), but nothing i can think of using the hubs. mainly i guess because no fixed axle i’ve ever used has had recessed hubs… closest i’ve come to something like that would be the coin flip trick at 2:20 here.
Jrod, that was amazing! So damn good. I’m terrified to see what your fixie game will be like after a year!!
This thread has a lot of good videos.
By the way, does anyone know if there will be a Fixed Axle February 2015?
how have i not seen this thread before !!?!
This is awesome! I learned to do it today. It is really fun to do a kwijibo then finish with the GT.
No posts since 2015? Tsk! Y’all can do better than that!
Agree, this thread needs a bump to the top.
