I can’t do any of those yet. My yo-yo is still somewhat responsive so I don’t know if I could do it if I knew how.

Hmmm… I’ve never thrown a journey, but if it’s like my dark magic i would say it probably is a little too responsive. By the time I had figured that, I already bought a grind machine, which is relativly inexpensive($30) and nicely unresponsive…

When or if you are ready to move on to another yoyo, post what you’re looking for on the reccomendations board, you’ll get good support there
