Hey guys, here is my 7 month progress. Substantially less “uber” than I had hoped for when reaching this mark. I even screwed up at the end. :-[ But here it is… Sengoku Nobunaga! I choose you!
great job man…its good to see how far you’ve gotten… that eli hop is still a little funky so ill just call it a dave hop.
I just googled “dave hop.” facepalm
Yeah, you gotta get them shooting outwards, not up.
Nice job!
Nice job man!!
Anyway I can get a link to the video, my phone won’t show the video. Thank you
That was alot for one throw. Very nice. I’m getting there, but not as smooth. Not sure if you seen my 3 months video, but its on here somewhere.
Thanks mate, I dug up your 3 month. I have no clue what you say when you said you’re not as smooth. I see that you are much smoother than I am.
I don’t know about that. I’d say I still have a ways to go. I pretty much take my yoyo everywhere. The store, pharmacy, on a walk. At one point my fiance got tired of it. But I convinced her I need to get better. Then I got her into yoyoing. But it took awhile to convince her. How far are you on the YYE tutorial videos?
Nice video! You’re definitely doing way better than I was at 7 months
I don’t follow the video list of tutorials. I just watch and learn whatever I think looks cool.
Thanks mate.
Oh okay, I’m kinda the same way, but I did my best to go through and try them out.
i did the same thing and nothing wrong happened to me… happened to me… happened to me…
you don’t have to follow the list just do whatever you want… yoyoing is a personal journey that is different for everyone. thank goodness the community isn’t cookie cutter and we have such a large variety of styles.
Good job! I’m a month behind, but I’m hoping to post an update video soon as well. I did take a month off of learning tricks to teach a children’s yoyo class, but I don’t think it hurt me too much
What do you mean by outwards?
Looks good! I don’t film myself enough. It’s a great way to evaluate how a trick looks. You’ll be a step ahead if you do that early on. I remember when I started. I thought, all I will ever need is this one Benchmark! And $60 for a Yoyo? That’s steep! Hahahahahahaha… I need another case. Keep up the good work!
That looks amazing! On average roughly how many hours are you practicing do you figure?
Thanks mate. It ranges a lot. Some day I will spend 30 mins, some days I will spend 3 hours. I need to have at least 30 mins of play time a day though.
Sounds around the amount of time I practice now. But in the first 3 month for me I practiced around 4 hours a day.
