I would say just wait until I get it filmed and shared here, but > [@Unpopular Yoyo Opinions](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/unpopular-yoyo-opinions/296554/27): > > Posting a bunch of yo-yo tricks actually doesn’t do anything useful to promote the hobby.

Technically, I do not do tricks, I just do a hodge-podge of moves from different tricks. Whatever moves feel right at the moment. ---

Been throwing for about a month and working my way through the yoyoexpert trick list using a YYF One. I am currently working on UFO and trapeze. With the UFO I can get the yoyo to “spin out” but can’t it to return to my hand just yet. With the trapeze, I’m landing the yoyo on the string occasionally. ---

This morning while trying to learn something else I started doing backwards Barrell Rolls. It’s actually cool because it leaves me in a normal split bottom mount and doing the Barrell Rolls backwards and then then forwards is kinda cool. Happy New Year everyone. I go into work soon. ---

I found when learning this that a lot of the catches are down to where on your finger you are contacting the string after each pop… the second pop and catch was def more knacky for me, but working on consistently having the same contact points on your fingers following each element (ensuring a wide enough gap) really helped my consistency. Really did help with Calypso as well, although I do struggle with the second grind and catch with this one still! ---

I can’t get the finger spin at all. I found if I do basically a trapeze holding the yo-yo in my TH , string in my NTH, and wind it up by just rolling it ‘downhill’ its super easy and works great ---
