I mentor myself. I find it extremely frustrating when the one I’m mentoring refuses to listen! 😡

Why don’t you post a video of 5 or 6 attempts of your hooks and I’m sure you’ll get a few helpful hints from everyone on this thread. You are already better at hooks then mine 😄.
I’ll see what i get tonight.

I attempted hooks last night. What i think is that string makes a difference. I was using regular kitty at first and got nothing… i put a Zipline on and i started to create the hook with the string properly… never caught it but i was getting the loop over my NTH index.

I’ve been thinking about getting an atlas. I shouldn’t verbalize these thoughts…
If nothing else make sure your string torsion is very neutral.

If you get an atlas, get a b-grade. It’s 60 dollars cheaper and is like just as good. It probably has a tiny bit of fingernail vibe (haven’t tested) but it has like no vibe elsewhere.

My progress looks about where u are or not add good . I can’t see anything wrong… but i can’t hook yet either😃
I think we have to throw 500 more hooks and it will come.
I will say i think you should move the camera up so it’s even with your chest, i think the angle is better for there string and it will be easier for people to give pointers.
And good job landing one!
