**Week 19 Quoc Anh Elements** Happy Friday! This week for 5a we’re going to break it down into two smaller elements, one that intros independent movements where cw and yo are doing their own independent movements, and throwing the cw. Hope you enjoy these bite sized elements and feel free to get wild and experimental with them!

**Week 19 1A — Spencer Berry’s Havoc** Havoc might not be nearly as iconic as rancid milk but it is still a great trick to learn. It has a lot of direction changes that take a bit to get smooth / in a flow with and a lot of the hops/bounces still show up in tech tricks.

Actually they will be moving away from the pills as a reward but not the logo IIRC. You should be able to view the tutorial without an account. It was based it off the first version shown by Imperator, so let me know if you have questions. More text and an overhead view. Maybe it helps, maybe not. Here’s the link. Sorry it embeds so poorly. > **[Skill Addicts - learning mobile app](https://app.skilladdicts.com/trick/havoc-4611)** > > Easy and fun way to learn skills.

Yooo tut is good nice work yo! I did not know the cabin tut was a bit different from the way spencer does it but I watched an old vid of them doing it and yeah lol just a bit different.

Right Chuck does a couple moves different from the original. I think Imperator’s is true to the original if that kinda thing matters to you. ---

Really? I do 2 slipknot loops on the end to shorten it and it seems comfortable. I’ll try some shorter ones. It does make the cw move slowly which makes it a bit easier but maybe the additional control of a shorter string is better. ---

well i guess i should clarify and say thats long string from what im used to. i like my 5a string shorter like you said for the control, but i wasn’t suggesting you shorten it. i prob should have said more words lol i was impressed at your lvl of control given that longer string :+1: when i first tried with more 1a length string i was bashing the cw on everything in sight ---
