Well, I just landed a kind of “inverse” beefhook I “invented”(I dunno if someone has done this before). Is a beefhook but instead of doing it from a trapeze you do it from a brother mount and swing it to the left, and the hook lands on your nth.

I just landed the Trapeze rejection to GT a couple days ago. That’s a neat one.

Yea, me too. I was doing Ninja Vanish this last week, and I can land it, but only about 1 in 5 tries, so it isnt very good. But I kind of figured it out in about a minute and impressed myself. Still have to find the “hole” so to speak so I can nail it more reliably, but it clicked for me right off the bat. I imagine stuff like the beefhook would steal my soul though.

My oldest finally learned “elevator”. Which is a good thing, he needed a confidence boost (hop the fence is breaking his poor little mind) :heart:

Please stop posting vids of your kid dominating.

Thanks.

Cute kid! 😃 How freaking cool that he’s getting a start so young at this hobby! If he chooses to stick with it, he’ll be damn good!

It also took several months lol. I saw someone say the other day that the yoyo has to be on the _right_ side of your throwhand when you do it, otherwise you land in a brother mount.  
Did that and got it in the first few tries, it just clicked

Beefhook is pretty hard. I landed it three times in a row once… and I’ve landed it a handful of times… in several hundred tries(at least, maybe several thousand) since then 🤨 It’s making me 🤪
