I checked out grid iron like a year and a half ago, not long after I started. I got some of the first half down but didn’t go back to it. I think you should also check out this ladder trick → [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/2/d/7/2d75c3fd20fa4bbaa37b317e561a2e367d1182e2.jpeg "Ladder picture combo - Yoyo trick tutorial") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s6TAE1aezJk) I learned this one. I think it looks cooler than grid iron too 😁 @eternalmetal ---

I did a bit of yoing way back in the early 2000’s…never got past stuff like kamikaze and kwyjibo…but I had a bunch of the stuff under those down. One of my favorites back then was rewind…it just looked and felt so cool! And I got to the point where it was super easy and natural for me. Well, all these years later…I’ve lost almost everything I knew back then! lol…it’s totally okay though cause I’m really enjoying learning the basics again. Anyhow…I landed my first rewind today! It’s a really simple trick…but it just feels so good! My next big goal is to do a rewind into the first half of black hops! 😃 Oh, and I also landed a suicide on my second attempt! And then I completely missed the next dozen or so attempts! haha \>.\<’ I use to want to get consistent at suicides SO badly when I was younger. I’d practice just about everyday…attempting over and over and over again. Never did get the hang of it and it was super frustrating and discouraging! ---

Do a GT suicide with your eyes closed, if you can do that then do a GT REVERSE suicide :skull: (good luck on this, I’ve been practicing on and off and almost always end in a knot 😭) [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/8/f/e/8fed858beb6ef3accee51094cd5ff616db35ac3e.jpeg "グリーン・トライアングル・リバース・スーサイド・キャッチ") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hYBlj25Gvfw) ---

I had kinda given up learning Brent Stole. I would barely ever land it, and often times if I did land in something resembling a GT, the strings would be all twisted up and wrong. Then the other day I saw it in slow motion in someone’s clip and realized I’d been doing it wrong this whole time. I was trying to get the string to come around from the back to the front instead of from the front to the back. I watched another quick tutorial after that and now I am landing it probably 3/5 tries. ---
