Spirit Bomb! Only a few times, and super sloppy, but I landed it lol

I finally got Gentrified. Even though it’s actually pretty simple (except for the underpass), it feels like the first legit trick I’ve pulled. Next is Magic Trick. Really want to see the looks on my boys’ faces when I clap and it all “disappears” 😆

I think you’ll find Magic Trick a lot easier than you might expect. As long as you skip that Cheese Whip entry to the wrist mount, anyway.

That’s what I keep reading, so hopefully I’ll find it to be true! I actually want to do the cheese whip, too, but I think I’ll work on it separately for now. Ann Connolly makes it look incredible and easy, but then she’s been doing this a bit longer than me. She’s got an awesome style.

Turns out you’re right! I learned Gentrified one day and Magic Trick the next. I have both of them flowing very well now and have even managed to put both in combos, including one with both. I did not expect to pick up either one that quickly, but here we are. Very happy with these tricks and feel like they up the ante quite a bit.

I just landed the brent stole but I swung the slack around twice, it was way harder than I thought it would be, I was so exited 😆

Don’t have a video for the fact that I don’t really record when I throw, but I was listening to some stand up comedy on YouTube and playing around a bit yoyoing… and I finally learned magic drop randomly… for years I gave up on it because I couldn’t get the rejection but I got it now lol I’ve been doing it for the past 30+ minutes now.

This thread is “i finally landed it”, not I’ve actually learned it. So today I’m celebrating hitting my first repetition of Yuuki Slack. Such an awesome trick lol

Try underwater basket weaving, has a slack and branding, fun but not hard.

But i finally landed the whole trick.

Here’s the first time landing it on camera .

I’m slowly getting better at it. Sometimes i land three in a row, then miss 20 times in a row. But I’m getting there. I’ll be practising this one for the next weeks a lot I think.

TIL throwing bro flips with my dominant hand is actually way easier than kickflips with my non-dominant hand. Who knew?

Also I landed the first one I attempted!
