What trick are you working on?

Gonna start working on Cold Fusion this weekend.

I love tricks like Cold Fusion because they are the kind I know I can get a handle on fairly quickly, and they look great too. It’s nice and flowy and, thanks to the mounts it starts and ends on, it’s really conducive to being part of a longer combo.

Yeah it is a good one, I found myself doing it akmost constantly once I learnt it and still work it into some combos, you pick up a lot of useful things from the whole motion!

I’ve almost got reverse Brent stole consistently. Can anyone tell me what I’m doing wrong when instead of a triangle I just get a trapeze with some extra string twists?

Not sure what I’m quite working on in the 1A world. Was toying around with some chopsticks and hops earlier which is the first in a while I found something “fresh” to work on and explore.

In the fixie/0a world, been working on undermount stalls as those have been my weakness for a while. This will set me up for some zipper stalls.

Working on perfecting my lacerations. Just getting my finger in that loop seems like its upto chance sometimes. I dont mind well structured mounts, its just anything with slack messes me up

A laceration to a trapeze mount you dont need to focus in putting your finger IN the loop like a suicide. More so just focus on the bottom segment. Itll pretty much land itself. If u are watching a tutorial on it, slow down the frames and u might see what im talking about

Learned this one last week on Dylan’s YouTube, I think it’s called “ADD”. Sure I could get the yoyo to bounce back and forth faster but want to make sure I can land on the strings first… Added challenge with a small yoyo :slight_smile:

Kamikaze, I got all the elements but still working on connecting everything end to end. I got the Magic Drop to be fairly consistent thanks to some Youtube videos, now it’s mostly the stability at the end that causes issues - somewhere during the last 1.5 mount, trapeze brother, 1.5 mount, the yoyo goes sideways and I have to dismount in a hurry. If this happened to people and you have advice, I’m interested, will probably just need some more practice.
