Not in the mail, but I picked up these 720s yesterday. I am determined to become at least semi decent at 2A. I can loop endlessly with both hands, but for some reason my brain freezes when I try to do both hands at once.

I’m in a similar boat. I don’t get it. I’ve tried several times and get back to proficient with each hand individually, but together, no luck.

I am working on my one handed loops first! Hahaha! I was able to snag a pair from @ewest. They are wrapped under the tree.

In 2015 I got an Imperial and all I wanted to do was loop. By the next fall I was looping with a Loop 360 25 healthy loops straight out of bed in the morning, no warm up. For 2 weeks I was good. One day after work I decided to try two-handed…no dice. My one-handed went severely downhill that very night. By the next day I was throwing corkscrews and over the next week I lost the hand movement almost totally and quit throwing for several months. Nothing helped. Good news is, it eventually led me (2 years later) to get serious about 1a. I try to loop from time to time but the fear of getting it and losing it again makes me almost physically ill. Why did I just write all of that? Time to put on my big boy pants I guess…

My first B/S/T experience was great. I posted a new / unopened Duncan Speed Beetle and @Cannon snagged it. I just said I’d trade it for whatever strings he thought it was worth. Today, I got my trade and was blown away! Heart Strings, Blueprint, Toxic Great Whites, CLYW Hybrids, String Lab, YYSL, Kitty String, and more, plus 2 counterweights which I will take as a nudge… Thank you @Cannon! This forum and every member here (even if I just liked your posts and we have not PM yet) has been the best social media I ever experienced. P.S. I treasure / value these strings (and counter weights) so much I do not want to use them, but yeah, that aint gonna happen. For tonight though, I’m gonna bask in the radiance.

Quite a bit his week. These were all for Christmas. HotDiggidy 2nd run, Silenus, Kuntosh, Benchmark O 2016, anniversary Gradient and stand, and a pair of Loop 720s.
