The "I Finally Landed It!" Thread

Fire Escape ;D

Just landed a combo of Rewind–Kwijibo–Magic Drop–Shockwave ;D

I can land them all separately (well, Magic Drop is still somewhat inconsistent…), but for some reason it occurred to me to do them all in sequence. Pretty jacked-up about this one!

I’ve got Cold Fusion pretty much down, now.

Skin the Gerbil is still giving me way more trouble than it should.

Around the neck, horizontal (~80°) simplified skin the gerbil. This is the day I dreamed of since I learned about modern yoyo play. :slight_smile: overwhelming joy.

KWIJIBO!!!

(Insert mental image of old guy running around in circles)

I also learned how to get into and out of the wrist mount this past week.

Shuv-it on my No-Jive!

Nice!
Landing the second hop in Kwijibo took me a while to get consistent…

My first attempt at a GT Suicide. Shortly after I went to do it again…wind picked up and blew that triangle right into the gap and BAM! Insta-Knuckle Buster! Not once, but twice after the first attempt and success (with the exception of some sketchiness)

Behind the Back Kickflip (On my butterfly)

Cold Fusion ANDDDDD Boingy Boing just now! I feel so happy, and proud of myself ;D

laceration. Granted, it isn’t super complicated, but, I’ve been working on it for about 45 minutes and seem to be pretty consistent now. This is what I love about throwing, the little victories are super motivating.

Zach Gormley’s slack roll to GT trick! Took me some time to figure it out, but I got it!

Landed 2 tricks: A Hook and Tower to Ping Pong

About the Ping Pong, it’s got some work, mainly trying to get that string the right length so I can ping it back and forth…followed by snapping it hard enough for that “magic knot” to pop out.
