I think my front style boing boing has finally clicked with me :slight_smile: but now for seasick…

I never bothered learning seasick, but then I decided to try it and it was easy for me.

This tower rotate catch thingy… I think it has a name but I don’t know it xD

So it is either a laceration, slack, suicide, or picture trick…

finally managed to land some Eli Hops out of nowhere, and then I freaked right out when I managed to land a Suicide, but I’m still only landing about 1 in 5 of them

I’m still very new in terms of suicide, but here are a few tips that i found to help me

  1. When doing a suicide, start with the trapeze over your NTH index and middle finger.
  2. Try catching the loop on the middle finger instead of your index

I cant do suicides to save my life, it’s not a laceration, it’s a picture trick that you slack around I guess…

Double or nothing, hop to the back string, pull a string through and it makes a tower(eiffel tower), then you rotate away from you and catch the bottom of tower then rotate it back… Maybe I can make a vid :smiley:

It’s the double or nothing tower spin slack raytsh did right?

DUDE I though I was the only one who did that. We’ve been so in synch lately- it’s almost weird

Yea haha :smiley: idk I learned the tower thing a while ago and I decided to experiment and cameup with that, I think I’ve seen it in videos somewhere though idk…

I must repeat what Josh said. And Zammy. So many tricks that seem easy are done so wrong. Sea Sick is not that easy (the motion and getting into it correctly make me blegh?) And Apparently, a lot of people I know…mess up lacerations? Like…what? But for me, I landed Kwyjibo fully in one fell shot…then popped some offball Whip follow me stuff. xD

Regarding lacerations, what a lot of people do is a “chop” to trapeze. A proper laceration should have the loop in the gap before the finger is inserted.

However, I prefer everything about the chop, so that’s what I use. Not that I “can’t” do a laceration, but I really just don’t like doing them. Can’t speak for anyone else.

been able to do it for a while, but I’ve gotten much more consistent with "reverse trapeze whip’

Pretty much first tries, but I got 4a toss and catch, 4a throwy bind thing, 4a brain twister mount

Yesterday I landed my first (and only) pop n fresh. Today I managed drop in the bucket. I changed my string yesterday and decided to cut it longer than usual. Sometimes it’s harder to handle but I think it helps to have a little more string to work with.

Pop’n’Fresh. I still can’t do that one without little pauses and immense concentration. frodoslair does it near the beginning of his “Old Folks Battle” video in a speedy way that I don’t think I’ll ever be able to do:

For that matter, all those frontstyle tricks are done so fast and smoothly…

I made a random trick and somehow ended in the snap trick at the end of Jensen’s Ghost combo :o

I got one open string bind (4a)

finally landed a brent stole that lands into a cross armed gt, ninja vanish that also lands into cross armed gt, did 12 4A whips in a row in this pattern (over, under, under leg) before binding back, open string bind, did a lot after lunch today XD
