**Week 27 - Kobayashi’s rejection to hook**

[![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/8/6/f/86ffcbe87243dc98a233f8a2e7e0c06baa44e22e.jpeg "Tutorial: Toya Kobayashi’s Rejection to Hook") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j360RT1H2a4)

We’re over the half way mark for the year! To celebrate I thought it would be fun to learn an element @GTDropKnot has used a few times in his Instagram videos lately because he’s done a great job shepherding the thread this year.

This trick is flashy, but also much, much simpler than it seems at first.

The tutorial is by Kris Toledo, so it is left handed. If you need to reverse it to see it right handed, you can see it flipped here: [https://www.mirrorthevideo.com/watch?si=b-Km42b\_v\_JDaatq&v=j360RT1H2a4&feature=youtu.be](https://www.mirrorthevideo.com/watch?si=b-Km42b_v_JDaatq&v=j360RT1H2a4&feature=youtu.be)

Finally, if you’re finding the tension hook element tough (or just need more instruction than “do a Zach hook”), here’s a pair of tutorials that are variations of just that element:
