just got my catch rate on suicides to a decent percentage tonight, sucha smooth feeling!!
Marking 1 month of throwing today with this video:
I’m excited to see where I’ll be at next month!
edit: I’m still working on my breakaway (living in NYC makes me wish I had more indoor space)
- excuse the messy studio, we just did a shoot today!
WOW!!! That is fantastic. Great job!!! Seriously! You have IT.
Today I’m working on a trick called “Dr. Strange” I saw the tutorial on youtube by Andre and it looked like a fairly simple fun trick and I gotta say it might not be super hard but it is fun.
Front style Plastic Whip. Oooh, yeeeaaah! Chickachickaaahh.
Aside from just having fun with my general “trick bucket”, I’m working on getting classic Yuuki concepts down consistent. Right now, I’ve got it at about 50%
Mel Hops and One-handed laceration binds! SO FUN!!!
I just got reliable with White Buddha and I’m closing in on Seismic Slam.
Ballistic and this crazy wrist mount combo by Shinnosuke Miyamoto as taught by mrmatio.
One-handed laceration style bind training prepared me for pocketing the normal lacerations, I love them both now!
Working on a tension hook. Ive stuck it a few times but me thinks a longer string would help a lot.
I’ve learned Charles’ instant double GT and I found a way to dismount where I can get a phat regent from so I’m working on that
Lacerations into suicides
@HotcakesTheMemeGod do you do regens often? I can do them but mine are always so weak
Same here, though i tend to get frustrated and give up for a few days before i try again lol
They just take practice to get powerful and clean.
so you always hit a fatty regen? not like 2 mediocre ones in a row to get enough spin?
No, not always. But almost always.
I like to work on a few at a time. Trying to figure out how to consistently land on the string I want instead of both strings after a Magic Drop. Also Kamikaze and Seasick. If I grind on the same trick over and over for a couple hours I feel like it’s less productive than taking a handful at a time, getting the concept, and having several things to work on without getting ill at the same trick.
So I looked at a tutorial for GT Laceration (Brent Stole)… I can do a Hidemasa Hook… however this one leaves me so so confused
Front style plastic whip. Even after watching tutorials over and over I can not keep the string positioned over my throw hand thumb while creating the slack to catch the yoyo. I know one day it’ll just click and it’ll work and I’ll be like, “oh, this is pretty simple.”
