pretty stoked i stuck banaha whips last night and roll up the rim very smooth now…i feel the last 2 weeks ive made huge strides…7 months in.

Gotta say slacks/whips are my favorite tricks, just hard to hit consistently!

Was that his World’s Freestyle used at AP?

NO WAY!!

Ok so I got the idea to do this last night, and the trick is as follows (it’s a fixed axle trick):

Do a basic trapeze stall, leaving as much string as you can free.

Pop the yoyo off the “trapeze” which is a stall, and brent stole.

Once brentstoled, pop the yoyo off and regenerate it back to your hand since it’s still in a stalled formation with the string.

I did it 30 minutes ago. Haven’t been as proud to do a trick like this in months (maybe over a year).
