Started to learn 4a, I can do a few things, I’m truthfully still working on getting really solid spin times on abnormal catch and throw. I found I was able to do a few tricks, but I def need a stronger throw without chucking it 10ft in the air!!

Got a decent throw and catch. Normal bind and one hand bind. I can do barrel rolls both ways with one beat of boingy boing in between but cant keep up a boingy. I got throw arm orbits and just nailed a smooth body/torso orbit behind the back and back to nice bind. I ran inside with my arms all noodley going “WOO!! I did cool things!”

Not bad for my first day trying it not in a bedroom. haha

It played responsive out of the box, so it needs to be broken in a little still. I love it though. It’s really comfy in the hand, and spins VERY smooth. It might be my favorite CLYW so far.
