After a week of struggling with the plastic whip I finally got it. My kids heard my excitement and asked to see my new trick. I did it for them and they replied “That’s it?” 😢 Way to rain on my parade boys. 😛

Don’t worry. It took me months to learn the Split Bottom Mount. It also took me about 6 months to learn the Plastic Whip. Just have fun while learning.

I’m really new to yoyo (just over a month) so everything is new for me. Last night I hit the Plastic Whip for the first time. I also caught the Trapeze and his brother slack trick several times in a row. Everything is still really inconsistent and loose but that will get better with practice.

It feels good to start hitting some tricks consistently.

Finally got Kwijibo! I’m no where near consistent yet, but seeing that double or nothing happen after a few days of popping the yoyo up and flailing while hoping for the best, I’m pretty darn happy. Haven’t felt this good since I got the rewind down.

Gotta practice getting consistent before I go outside with the regen to try the leg wrap trap

^Congrats. That’s the best most accurate description for the trick I have seen, “seeing that Double Or Nothing form”. 8)

I finally landed Spencer Berry’s Enigma today after about 3 days of trying to learn it. Took a Space Cowboy full speed to the mouth the first day, had a bloody fat lip that is barely gone today haha. No pain, no gain!

Enigma is a hard trick. I learned it and then forgot it. I should re-learn it because it’s so cool… like Rancid Milk (which I also learned and mostly forgot).
