**Week 6 — Tsunami Bomb** [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/1/5/b/15b66ea3f3b323da58bb57903415cec8d8113634.jpeg "Learn the Tsunami Bomb 1A Combo Yoyo Trick") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1P1l55Z_k5M) This week we are going to be working on Tsunami Bomb, a super cool and useful trick to know sent to me by @rickyyR . I think there are some useful transitions to learn here. It is also a good trick to get comfortable with doing multiple things at once. I encourage everyone to learn the elements without worrying too much about the flow at first and then work up to getting the trick flowing. Have fun and good luck!!! ---

Thank you, I did the best I could in this try. I think the movements in the trick are kinda weird, but the trick to smoothness is to let the yoyo do its thing and just move the string out of the way. ---
