The "I Finally Landed It!" Thread

YES!!! Just landed Cold Fusion. This is awesome!!!

Just landed Pop n’ Fresh. Yeah me. So happy!!!

Nunchuck, shoulder pop, wrist mount, and a few arials

NOICE! Keep it up, man.

This is not really “landing” a trick, but I finally unlocked the secrets of snap-starting! Whooooooo

Thanks! I just landed a few tanglers too!

Nothing exciting in general. Smoothing out The Matrix, but landed plastic whip. I figured that was gonna be a killer for me, but I nailed it. I’ve done it at least 50 times tonight. I’m not nailing it every single time, but that’s what practice is for.

Special thanks to VegaBomb for some hand placement/movement tips he PM’ed me a couple of nights ago, Andre and YYE of course for the Expert Village video that is used her for tutorials and The Master of YoYo for his video. I wasn’t planning on actually getting this trick nailed today. I had only casually worked on it the past few days with no success. Tonight, I got bored and needed something new and different.

It’s especially awesome to do a one-handed bind. Nice to have get some more variety.

Still have to work on The Matrix and Plastic Whip, but those are two I can do now.

nice studio! have you tried cold fusion? That’s another trick you can do from double-or-nothing.

Getting better at tangler and I finally got beesting! I never realized how simle it was lol. Big thanks to Jacob Gross at highspeedyoyo!

yesterday I found the secret to ninja vanish. I feel like a mighty wizard!

I watched the video. I don’t think I’m ready yet, but it seems do-able with practice. I’m just moving slowly through the YYE trick list. Also, a kid asked me yesterday if I could do Cold Fusion and I said “I’ve heard of it, but I don’t know it”.

I theoretically should have loads of practice time this weekend. I look forward to whatever modest progress I can make. Rewind looks fun!

I was watching some videos for fun yesterday, one was suicide, i thouhgt was pretty cool… Then today i was in a green triangle and decided to see if I could do a suicide from it. I landed it :smiley: I was pretty happy lol

Plastic whip can also be used for 1 handed binds.

I landed a perfect Spirit Bomb tonight for the first time! (perfect meaning, smooth and also correct dismount) I landed it another 3 or 4 times a little bit later. The only thing I’m having trouble getting consistent now is the dismount, but I’m working on it :slight_smile:

Work on getting into and out of a wrist mount as part of a combo. Once you get the mount and dismount, try throwing in the middle part of the trick. This should help you incorporate Spirit Bomb into combos – including a clean dismount.

skin the berbil, kamikaze

Bee sting. Just need to figure out something cool to from there

I skipped McBride Roller Coaster and came back to it today and it was pretty simple

try getting back to back beestings smoothly then try adding an element to the end of it

Vomit Comet. It’s McBride Roller Coaster x 3.
