Funny thing… I don’t celebrate birthdays and so I don’t pay a lot of attention to it. Almost all of last year I was telling people I was 53… but in reality… I just turned 53. I really believed it too. The mind can be such a funny thing. 🙄 ---

Ha! Ive got the first hop, second hop has been a little more elusive. Cool thing though, when I mess that one up, half the time instead of a knuckle smash it ends with a double or nothing stall which looks pretty cool. Wish it was on purpose though 😅 ---

Definitely took me on a tangent for a little while and has a cool 0a/1a blend, which I’m really into. I can actually hit it pretty consistently now, but I really want to nail it proper! ---

You forgot the “knuckle smash and try again until it works” step 🤣 There’s at least two opportunities in there! I don’t think I’ve ever smashed my knuckles more learning any trick that I did with Kwyjibo, and still to this day, haha. ---

I finally got it and found using an old Butterfly XT was perfect. It had enough spin but was light enough to be much less painful on the knuckles. ---

Might seem dumb, but it had not yet dawned on me that I could do Kwijibo with a responsive throw. My unresponsive throws have blinded me! ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/5/e/7/5e722dcfdcb7c8dba08506f62b233116c7891faa.gif) I ran over to my slightly responsive DM2 and immediately slammed it into my knuckles 🥲 (after few more tries I landed it) ---

I’ve been mixing 0a and 1a tricks together in combos a lot these days and surprised how fun and challenging it is. Especially when you throw in more complicated tricks like kwyjibo, super flow and matrix. ---
