Week 2 Supercharger

Happy Friday everyone! Hope yall had a good week! This week we’re going to be working on Supercharger.

Now, the hardest part of this trick is the whip at the end. It can be tough to get the feel for, so be patient with yourself. Here’s a tut specifically adressing whip technique.

And here’s the trick from another angle

Jake doesn’t do it in the yotricks video, but you can see in both Diego B’s and Sleeper’s videos that you can make the whip easier by pinching in two places — with your NTH thumb and with your NTH index finger.

If you’re looking for something easier

If you’re having trouble with the whip and want an easier version to learn first:

Try doing this version from an undermount. It’s a little easier, but the motion is the same. In this version, the loop to start the whip is around your middle finger instead of your index, and instead of being on two strings you are just on one (though you can do it on two as you can see at the end of the video). It’s also setup so you can do it as a repeater to get that motion of hop/flip/pull down

Have fun and have a great weekend everyone!
