I’m getting so close on Supercharger. Working on consistently and properly intercepting the Brother Slack and getting the whip consistent. I’ve not yet made it to the bind. I like the trick though. Something that helped me was putting on some 90’s slow jam and moving to the rhythm. :wink::+1: ---

Finally getting some time to work on Takeshi Bounce and it’s starting to come together. I was wrapping the throw hand string around the wrong way for embarrassingly long lol. I understand how it works now and it’s just a matter of practice. ---

**Week 4 — Zack Gormley’s Underpass Combo** This week we’re learning a fairly common combo that most often gets attributed to Zack Gormley. There are a lot of tutorials for this one out there, so here are just a few — but if you take a look on youtube you’ll find a fair few more. The second and third videos here are much more detailed than the first.

If this is a combo you already feel really comfortable with, here are a couple of stretch options: - put it at the end of another combo - learn the rejection triangle you see Diego B do at the end - learn another one of Zack’s combos that has a similar beginning ([example 1](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BrT4fWysn4k), [example 2](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R6CyFUWqNg4)) ---

You know, I literally just realized the underpass —\> tension slack element can be done as a repeater. That’s neat. ---

WTF! I actually landed this one on my first try… ugly but the whip made it. I thank supercharger for practicing the whip move on a combo… need to smooth both tricks out. Deff enjoy supercharger and this week’s trick a lot. Was unable to make heads or tails out of last week but I’ll try to get back to it eventually. Will try to post a video this weekend of a clean attempt of This week’s trick. ---
