I have been trying to learn Woo-hoo on and off for years now. The rejection hook is what always stumped me in the past. Well, I’ve been learning Kris Toledo’s longer tutorials (highest recommendation as they’ve become my favorite tricks), and the rejection hook in one got me to finally learn it. I didn’t even realize there was a rejection triangle at the end, which took a while as well! It’s still super inconsistent, but it felt good to land it after such a long time. :tada: :tada: :tada: [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/8/1/4/814b82f078f4a38710bc2f2e10b0bc39fcb38d0f.jpeg "János Karancz tutorials #1 - Woo Hoo") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVBiTozyJlk) Amazing Kris Toledo tricks for anyone interested: [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/1/4/5/14579f027682839fd0b4e9bfcde70a700de641d7.jpeg "Tutorial: Toledo Classic") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qiz21NeOssI) [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/2/3/8/2380df5bde328cdbb97ff97315c6d8a68695d3d4.jpeg "Tutorial: Old Autopilot Combo") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4dauyElbmXI) [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/c/4/a/c4a439944bf9dc5032260cfa5e6326955be9a897.jpeg "Tutorial: Tech/Slack Combo") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WPIkadqCPro) [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/2/4/2/2420ac36f8ae1b996e63523b8d56fad369dc06ba.jpeg " - YouTube") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4KhYmo-k6U) ---

I finally landed the first hop of Spirit Bomb; it was smooth and clean and I landed it on the first throw of the morning. I was sorta shocked when it happened. Of course, it’ll probably take another thousand tries to land it again… ---

> [@Slar](#): > > I finally landed Aces High. It’s one of the first tricks I saw when I first started and thought it would be impossible to do. Still seems impossible sometimes 😅 Nice work!! Aces High was tricky to learn - it requires very precise spacing and placement. Yuuki’s tricks are among my favorites and really helped develop technique. ---
