Is there a committee I can go to to see if a trick I think I’ve made is original? I wanna name it but I don’t wanna get flamed if it’s not original. Is it like the oracle in 300? Do I need someone to read tea leaves?

you wanna know if the trick is in fact original or the name?

if name I’d just poke around on google. if you wanna check the trick I’d just post it here. there are plenty of trick encyclopedias walking around here that can let you know if something is super familiar

I manage all yo-yo tricks. Please send me polaroids of your trick, step-by-step, along with a money order for $15. I’ll review the photos and let you know if the trick is original, and if your trick name is rad enough.

Please allow 12-24 months processing time.

Chopsticks to Double or nothing, roll to trapeze, roll to chopstick. Simple yet effective.

I feel like the best you can do is to just ask around. It’s very, very difficult to know

Hey man. If we gotta find a pretty girl to smoke some opium with to get an answer…. Actually never mind. That sounds like the way we should be doing this from the start.
