It is about time I practiced or worked on something new, it has been a good 4 or 5 months since I last tried anything new

First, I’m very happy to hear you didn’t have major injuries from getting hit. Things are replaceable, you aren’t.

Eiffel Tower is an iconic trick, one that people love to see, that you can always throw to put a smile one someone’s face. Creeper will come when it does, keep working it, don’t get frustrated.

Keep having fun and surprising yourself as you progress (after throwing for years, I sometimes look back to when landing trapeze seemed like pure luck). Yoyo is a fun journey!

Hahaha! That’s where I am. If I’m feeling froggy, I’ll try to throw trapeze. I think I landed it once.

So far so good, though.

Good luck on Chuck Norris’s Beard!

Thank you, sir. One thing that helped me a lot with trapeze was throwing it with my elbows touching my body so my hands were On the same plane (each hand was a firearm distance from body). It helped put the strings in vertical alignment.

Currently working on this. It’s really tough, I have to pause a lot to move strings manually that didn’t go where I wanted them to originally. But, after a bit of working on it I landed the final GT at least once. Now for the long work of getting it smooth.

Working on an original trick. Its probably one of my best based on trick construction, but im frustrated because in the middle one of two different scenarios can happen, and idk how to make that part more consistent. Whats worse is the middle part that is a little more consistent isnt the one im going for. I can still build something with it, but its a little.frustrating haha.

I landed four Kwyjibos on the same throw, that was my goal. It felt pretty good.

How’s that Jade Whip now? It’s always been one of those tricks that I really like doing, but remain at about a 50/50 success rate.

Honestly, I wasn’t able to get it at the time. I’ve actually been taking a break from unresponsive play and have been throwing mainly wood fixies for the past few weeks. They just seem to be more in line with my yoyoing needs right now, haha

Here’s a couple of combos I’ve put together that I’ve been working on. I’m not smooth with them yet…and I messed up the ending of both of these…but they sure have been a heck of a lot of fun to work on!

Here’s the first…this one keeps changing as I add in new elements. Right now I’m working on trying to do the hops from the Black Hops trick out of the triple or nothing at the end of the rewind instead of rolling out of the triple or nothing like I do in this video.  
My Kywjibo is super sloppy, but I was too lazy to keep trying for a better haha. Smoothness will come in time I’m hoping.

Here’s my second…again, I’m not smooth. But it’s another fun one.  
Notice the skip in the video at the end where I do a bind. haha I cut out the 3 or 4 missed ghost binds I made! 😛 😅

Beginner here, came back to yoyoing last week after a break since 2007 (was still a beginner back then too though haha)

I’m currently working on the cold fusion trying to get it smooth like the tutorials and bouncing the yoyo between strings in the middle instead of threading it but can’t seem to not thread it yet.

While I’m working on that I made a combo around the cold fusion to keep it more interesting for me to practice.

I call it… “The Confusion”
