Made this one up a few weeks ago and its quickly becoming my signature trick. It’s not too complex, though, so I wouldn’t be surprised if someone else has come up with it before.

Name: Guillotine GT
Type: Body-involved
Style: Flashy, show-offy
Video: I’ll post one when I have one. Basically you form a GT around your neck and everyone thinks you’re going to strangle yourself (you’re not, of course). I’m also working on a “classy fedora” variation in which you remove a fedora from your head whilst doing a pinwheel before proceeding with the trick and then replacing it after the GT is formed.

Trick Name: Hip and Hop
Trick Type: Pop/GT
Trick Difficulty: Beginner
This is one of the easier tricks I have made, and I love it, just because it’s fun to do, and you can repeat it over and over again. To be able to repeat it, instead of doing a normal hop off the double or nothing, remove only your throw hand finger and land in a trapeze, it’ll make a loop around your finger, use that loop, and you’ll land of a GT without any twists.

I really want to learn this, could you elaborate it somehow in a video or something?

So Expert. No way that’s intermediate.

Electric Bologna

Revised


just another repost, for those who havent seen it

U STOLE MY TRICK! lol, nahh, u made it first, but i did come up with that trick like  aweek ago  :smiley: i like to add it to the end of my combos

It’s actually really easy, I guess everyone learns it at some point? :o

yea, cuz its reallg just the green triangle thats new, but its pretty simple, and thedouble or nothing is just thrown in there, u could do a kwyjibo and end it with that green triangle too. I like green triangles  ;D easy to create, fun to do, pleasing to watch  :slight_smile:

I actually have a bunch of new tricks I (think I) made up, I just need a proper camera.

Hey aznnboyaZ, might I give a suggestion?

Electric Bologna is a very awesome combo… You are clearly skilled.
I personally think it is way too long for a tutorial though. You have some great elements in that combo that I would break down into separate tricks / videos.
If you teach the original elements separately, it would be much easier to digest.

Either way, I am still going to copy some of your moves. ;D

Anyone want the steps? Its pretty simple, different elements from other tricks and some stuff i made up, but im sure others have figured out before me :smiley:

Name: Lindy’s Triangular Loop
Difficultly: Very Hard

Steps:

  1. Throw a Lindy Loop
  2. Bring hands together and pop the yoyo up into both strings while making a rightward movement with your TH leaving you with 2 strings hanging from your NTH Index
  3. Drop the string on your NTH that is at an angle leaving you in a ‘double rolled’ 1.5 mount.
  4. Unroll extra twist in the weird 1.5 leaving you in a regular 1.5 mount.
  5. Swing the yoyo counterclockwise over your hands like in Buddhas Revenge
  6. Pull out your TH index leaving you in a trapeze
  7. Swing the yoyo clockwise over your TH wrist putting you in a basic Green Triangle
  8. Pop the yoyo out on the INSIDE putting you back into a trapeze.
  9. Bind, deep breath, bow!

that’s an interesting combo. I like the GT at the end.
