The ol’ 5A “Yeet That Thing Across the Room” trick

Wanted to try out 5A today. Dug around for something that could be used as a counterweight.

It was so cute. So perfect.

And it went well… for a few minutes.

:sob: the poor guy lost his grip. He was just trying his best

If you haven’t already, try tying the slipknot around his waist, itll probably hold better

Do you have a Duncan imperial? If so, land a simple trapeze stall with it on camera, and @Slestak75 will send you a free counterweight!

(I think those were the rules, I’m sure Steve will correct me if I’m wrong)

It doesn’t have to be a trapeze stall either, it could be any of the tricks in this years Fixed Axle February event to my knowledge.

also i started with drilled dice and I’m sure that’ll be fun for astro dice specifically, but gaming dice are lighter so you really need 2 unless ur using a very light yoyo. i recently got a couple of 10g cw’s and using a single one of appropriate size and weight was a whole different game. personally i much prefer the single weight

Indeed. Use a Duncan Imperial to complete any of the tricks in the Fixed Axle February thread, post the video in that thread, and make sure to @ me in the post, and please include IMPERIAL CHALLENGE in the post. This is just to help me pick them out as I have stroke damage and sometimes it’s difficult to keep up with all the posts. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Landing the trapeze stall a couple weeks ago was my gateway drug into 0A lol. Be warned, it’s addictively fun if you haven’t already played around with 0A.

I’ll probably enjoy 0A more once I remember to buy Chapstick, lol.

for now, my fixies are all either too unresponsive, or too responsive. (I gotta double wrap the string just to get some to respond right)
