I believe you must return the yoyo to your hand after each trick. So my understanding is no, you can’t do “roller coaster” then “matrix” then return to hand. That would count as one trick. ---

It’s been asked and answered. 🙂 > [@The YoyoExpert Forums Old School Trick Contest!

Do the trick, return to hand. This though makes me wonder if the rule means you can do several tricks and they’ll count if you return the yoyo to your hand. I don’t see a “routine” (like when I think yoyo routine) possible if it’s one trick then return. My hope is that the rule is one trick then return. > [@The YoyoExpert Forums Old School Trick Contest!

When I mention “routine” it’s more about the order and cobination of tricks you choose to do. @TurdFerguson69 For repeaters, 3 repetitions minimum would be ideal. However, personally I wouldn’t discard the trick if you only did 2 repetitions, as long as it shows you can do the trick properly. For Eli Hops I don’t require you to do the roll, you can do it or not. I will add this clarifications to the rules. ---
