Very nice. I like the revolutions in this trick too. I’ve not been able to get revolutions yet. The yo-yo always goes out of control. ---

You know what? Fine. I’ll try to do the TaW this year. Here is my submission.

Took me ages to get them down. I found doing it from the slack in loopsidaisy helped me as there is a cross in the string which helps stop the yoyo falling out and going all over the place. ---

This will be the 2nd year of the Lynbrook Yo-Yo club, we will be meeting the 2nd Sat of the month in the Lynbrook Library. If you know anyone in the Long Island NY area please pass on the word.

Week 2 Supercharger Happy Friday everyone! Hope yall had a good week! This week we’re going to be working on Supercharger. [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/8/9/7/897b7e901204d4e2d592b1ee6a59d837c7202d60.jpeg "Learn the Supercharger 1A Yoyo Trick") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wqHXfZHzX5Q) 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. [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/0/9/3/0939354eda8f4b477ab8dc01eddd398df3bc4b35.jpeg "Supercharger WHIP Explained - Yoyo Trick Tutorial") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OTQMnM30ub0) And here’s the trick from another angle [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/6/a/d/6adc0822e6c6b875ce180464e25d9807699fc798.jpeg "SUPERCHARGER Yoyo Trick Tutorial") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i0e501mgtvo) 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 > [Whip-Album on Imgur](https://imgur.com/a/whip-NNwEo13) As always, don’t hesitate to reach out if you’re having trouble. Have fun and have a great weekend everyone! ---

I really like all the elements of this trick. Versions of this whip show up a lot for me - if you’re having trouble with it, definitely record a few attempts and post them, I’d love to help trouble shoot. ---
