I finally landed, after months and months of practice, the final tension gt in the CONSTRUCT video by Slvrandblk on YouTube.  
I have shown it in slowmo in the second part of video below, if anyone is interested.  
And please, I couldn’t find any tutorial on this, but I’d like to study it in deep to get it more and more consistent. If anyone knows how this trick is called please let me know. Right now I can land it maybe 1 out of 10 tries, and only using this yoyo and this very string.

I finally landed a Pineapple Catch after a few weeks of trying on/off. I decided to just grind it out yesterday and finally landed it this morning for the first time.

After about 4 weeks of trying (don’t laugh) I finally landed Spirit Bomb. Oddly enough after that I went immediately to Hook, which is what years ago caused me to to give up throwing, and I landed that in one evening of practice.
