[![]( " - YouTube") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z21aaR3PEeI) I made this trick up while playing around a bit. I’m not sure if this is a ‘Pheenix original’, but it sure looks flashy. String visibility is bad, but as good as I managed to get it at that moment. Tell me what you think! Now in slo-mo: [![]( " - YouTube") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j055qWRuNtE) ---

You know what? I’ll try putting some slo-mo on that and see if my 30 fps camera caught it. EDIT: Slo-mo helps a bit, but it’s still super blurry and I can’t do this trick slower. ---

I’ll make a video also, my camera isn’t high-tech either, but who knows? I’m mostly making this to see if I’m doing it right. ---

Brett Grimes will be trying to get this trick in 210 fps. He just needs to get the trick first. [quote=“”] ---

Hmm…awesome trick! Seems like a Paul Han Laceration in the beginning of the 3 seconds right? ---

It’s like doing jade whip really flashy by just using one hand and then just reverse it into a hidemassa hook. You can do it sideways-ish or just under-ish. The first one looks more flashy (and the one I’m doing). ---

Awesome! Death attempt by me… It looks like a Paul Han Laceration but a really short version, like the forward-back, then Hidemasa Hook. Not “sure” if it is a Pheenix Original," but it sure is crazy good! P.S., did you eat Super Shokx-Flaks before doing that? Hehe. ---

The slow motion shot was taken 11:30 PM, no Super-Shok Flakx. ---

that’s pretty equal, but there are minor differences.
