I went frame by frame and mount by mount with a lot of mistakes until I knew what the correct mounts and movements were supposed to be. Step by step too like really made sure I had a lock on the first whip before moving on. Took me a second to realize that finger pinch is the only one that really matters bc he’s got like three possible pinches going on at that spot lol good luck! ---

After doing this a few times all I could think about was how this shape works better as a pentagram / upside down star because the yo-yo is centered at the bottom. ---

Been a little burned out with online yoyo stuff, and not really in the mood to play 1A currently, so I’ve enlisted the help of @GTDropKnot to help keep the thread going while I take a bit of a break. It’s been really nice to see new faces and returning faces popping up in the thread as the weeks go by. I hope y’all have taken away some fun tricks so far. It’s been fun to watch everything that gets posted here. Henry should have a tutorial picked out for everybody to learn a bit later today 🤙 ---

This trick seems fun and like a good trick for trick-a-week! I like these simple fake knots, they’re so satisfying to pull apart. I’ll try to get a video up when I get a second. Let me know if y’all have any questions. Also let me know if there are any tricks you’d like to learn and think would be good for future TaWs. ---

Finally getting around to this. I think I’ll just be hanging out in the “what are you throwing?/trick” threads for now on, everything else just gets drama-filled and/or I just don’t feel like I fit in with the crowd lol. I’m just here to learn stuff and talk yo-yos man, I’m not very good yet because I haven’t played consistently for years and I usually don’t have the time to practice for hours a day, but who cares. Anyways, Sakatuca is the MAN for flipping his vids for lefties, seeing that pop up in the video ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/d/4/0/d4074d90bfa8b72bd77c7206390bc5cd39021b9f.gif) ---

You can also try to move your NTH down and then away so that the triangle is bigger. ---
