Time to ramp it up....

....With a new trick! The Kwijibo!

I would break the trick into 3 different parts: The Trapeze, The 1.5 Mount and the Double or Nothing. Try it, and if you're not so sure about the 1.5 mount, I'll try to dig and post up a video!

Give it a shot! :)

Start twisting your mind...

...with today's trick, the Brain Twister!



It's a cool trick that forms the foundation of lots of different front-style combos, so once you've got it down, try doing different variations of it; frontwards, backwards, inside, outside... go figure!

Special Request: The UFO!

It's a good trick to adjust string tension too! As you learn more advanced tricks, string tension plays a big part in whether or not you are able to land your tricks!

Enjoy!

The Double or Nothing!

This is simply an extension of the Trapeze! Instead of landing the Trapeze, let the yo-yo continue its swing for another round before letting it land on the string.

Try it! :)

Today's Trick: The Barrel Rolls

Specially for Raven! Enjoy! Just approach me if you've got any issues with the trick!

The Flying Trapeze

Remember how some of you had difficulty with this trick in the previous lesson? Just in case you've forgotten the steps to doing it, here's a little refresher for you! :)





Remember, practice hard! The likelihood that you'd get it right on the first few tries is always pretty slim so keep working at it! Don't give up!

How to handle an unresponsive yo-yo

You guys were wondering how I played with my yo-yo that doesn't come back right? Well, here's an explanation that hopefully you'd understand :)

You guys should try it once in awhile just to get the feel of it, cause that's what you'd be doing in the future! But don't forget, the foundation is the most important! Master your basic throws first and get to know your yo-yo better, it is your best friend!

The Eiffel Tower

I noticed that some of you guys have problems with this trick, so here's a video I dug out that hopefully could help you with it :)
