If you reply to the most recent post in a thread, it does not show the picture in the corner, because it is assumed you’re replying to the post immediately above you (if there is no picture). They still get a notification that you replied to their post.

Finally landed the hidemasa hook. Shout-out to Dylan Kowalski. His tutorial video seemed to make the difference for me. Now on to the Brent stole. Having tough time with it. Just always seem to end up in a trapeze.

I just landed my first successful bind from a breakaway. I also have Dylan Kowalski to thank for that!

Got hidemasa hook recently and naturally moved on to Brent stole. I wanted to share because after watching the tutorial on yotricks again last night and reading some of the comments on YouTube I realized why I kept failing. I would land in a trapeze nearly every time. I read that this was due to your throw hand being below the yoyo. So I tried again and made sure my throw hand finger was above the yoyo and the string was in line with the gap. Eureka, nailed it first try. And almost right away can nail it pretty consistent.

Been working on Titanium Chopsticks for like a week. I am close with undersized and mini throws, but not full size. Having trouble going from the chopstick undermount back to the original starting mount.

Eli Hops. I get this in 2-3 days but after 1.5 years Kwijibo still eludes me? I’m pretty good at it(Kwijibo)and I love doing it but jeez.

🤬 Beefhook 😅 finally!

I accidentally made my string too long and hit 3 suicides in a row (working on those lately).

So then I thought… why not try beefhook again? After a couple throws… success!

Yup… gonna rock a longer string for a while.

Just stopping in to say I mastered Kwyjibo FINALLY. The trick is to cross/uncross your hands very quickly to pull the yoyo onto the target string. I got it 3 times in a row on a single throw! Very proud of myself 😁
