Let me tell you why this is the best trick today

Sarvanters.

Because it is like magic. Because it is a trick with its own t-shirt. Because it has a weird name.

^that trick is like magic!
This trick is the best when I am working on trying to get more flow.

If we are not limited to tricks that are humanly possible, this is the best trick you will probably only see one person ever do. Paul is such an amazing innovator.

Yeah, love that one! I also like that it’s inspired by spin tops.

This is the best trick today because Slade shows us bearings don’t have to keep you from keeping your
fixed axle game sharp.

Really best trick all the time. Eric’s video is a little long winded and he needs to clean his room, but
he gives great tips on the B^2 !

Love a detailed tutorial! I’ve been working on my Protrusion (chopsticks boing), so I’m definitely gonna use it! In that vein…

Even though I don’t understand a word of Japanese, this is the best trick (ok, technically, a combo) today because it is also the best tutorial ever! I think it’s basically a preview of a DVD tutorial series.

Also this is the best because… it is Oonishi who is one of the coolest post-Black (Black, the yoyoer of course) Japanese yoyoers with a flair for nice flow and dramatic tricks. And this combo delivers when it comes to nice flow. The one problem (and maybe because its a preview) is that the full trick is at the beginning and words are overlaying on top of it, but anyways…its easy enough to see the desired result.

Best trick double feature. Walk the dog is the best because why have a yo-yo if you can’t play with it??
Hydrogen bomb on a fixed axle done this smoothly is super human. I learned how to throw watching Dennis McBride VHS tapes. The string analyzer helped me a lot. The music left deep emotional scars.

Years ago on Dave’s old forum I made a reference to this, and was so disappointed to be told that Dennis used a Sleep Machine for this VHS! ???

Hahaha! So funny and true! ;D

If you watch the tape it’s pretty much all about Tom Kuhn’s bearing yoyos. There’s no inference that any tricks were done on a fixed axle.

Yeah, I should add that I was also encouraged! Still a great and cheesy title.

You guys made me dust off the old string trick vids… I will have that theme music in my head the rest of the week…
Anyways, Vol 1 all fixed, Vol 2 looks like the sleep machine promo.
I still believe Dennis can do hydrogen bomb on a fixed axle better than I can do it on a sleep machine. If there is ever any question on my progress all I have to do is listen to the sound of the sleepers he throws on Vol1 to know not only am I not in the same league, I’m not even at the ball park yet.

This is the best tutorial today because it ends the way all tricks should, with the player getting tackled.
Lots of trick tutorials would be greatly improved if they would stick to this formula.

These were my thoughts as well.

Stalls and Kick Flips are gateway tricks to introduce or reintroduce folks to fixed axle. Lots of fun, not too hard on the old wrists… but why didn’t they call kick flips side’eh’cides?

Money does not come with instructions, but fortunately yo-yo tricks do.
This trick may give some of you a hint as to what magic beans I bought last night.

Best trick today, Saturday morning high-speed hijinks.
