That’s awesome! I found the tower by accident, but it’s quickly becoming one of my go-to elements. Great job!

I think it makes the DragonBlade opener feel like a complete trick. Very cool find.

Week 26 — 3D Slack Tower
It’s the halfway point for the year! Thank you everyone who’s participated so far.
This week we’re doing a flashy little tower that’s not as tricky as it might look at first. Flipping the slack around goes pretty comfortably once you get the hang of it.

Make sure to keep TH thumb extended out if youre having trouble getting the last slack to go around the yoyo…learned that the hard way. Changes the angle of the slack.
Also this trick is very dope and fun and imma figure out a set up i like better for that last slack and tower later.

I am loving vector but I am getting stuck, quite literally.
In the middle of the trick where you hop off, go through the middle and loop around the back before landing on the back string, I am finding my finger gets stuck and in trying to get it out I am losing spin or casuing it to tilt.
Does anyone have any advice on how they release at that part?

Tried to do a close up of just that bitbof the trick
I just end up with a lot of string around my finger which is fiddly to get off

instead of sticking your finger out and spinning around it, kinda grab/pinch the string with your nth so its easier to just drop what you’re holding rather than have to get wraps off your finger. i can try to record what i mean after work if you have trouble visualizing what i mean

Thank you! Is the pinch with middle and thumb?
stopped by the house for lunch so i got a vid. i grab the mini loops from my pointer and thumb and just pinch onto them

I totally see where I went wrong, entirely missed transferring it to my pointer. Thank you so much!

It was in my local supermarket in the UK that had some clothes for the 100 years of Le Mans so sadly discontinued.
A search on somewhere like redbubble for Le Mans 1966 might have some siilmilar designs as it is taken from a photo.

Neutral string tension is your friend… are you pinching the string with your TH middle, ring and pinky finger?

Newcomer starting at the halfway point. Hello all. Might try to take down the backlog too. 2 tricks a week is better than 1, aye?
That slack move has me scratching my head. Simple set up but damn that motion ain’t in my ocean. I either pop the yoyo off, or don’t have enough string to get around it.
