Trapeze          Green Triangle

About this trick
This trick was, as far as I know, created by John Ando.  I saw it one of his promotional videos and thought that it would be the perfect trick to broaden my own scopes as far as body-involved tricks go.

It takes a bit of practice to get the timing and proportions correct when forming the triangle so that it's fluid and recognizable, but once you do, the trick is awe-inspiring.  No matter where I do the trick, it draws the best reactions.

About this trick
Merry Christmas, players.  Follow has been one of the most requested tutorials since the creation of Rethinkyoyo, so I thought it fitting to have it be the tutorial released this fine Christmas weekend.  Consider it my gift to you, all you persistent throwers; you're the only reason this tutorial is up on the site right now.

The reason I was hesitant to release this tutorial is simply that it's incredibly difficult to learn.  It's not hard to explain, exactly, but nothing any teacher can say will make anyone "magically" have this trick down.  It just requires practice, plain and simple.  However, I talked myself into thinking that maybe my explanation of the trick will at least spur on some up-and-coming yoyoers to join in the practicing of Follow.  It's a great trick, worth learning.  I remember I had a ton of trouble with it for years.  Just keep at it, it will come in time.

About this trick
Nix is a step away from the norm for me.  It was heavily inspired by John Ando and Malcolm Chui, and I personally find it to be a smooth, flowing and challenging trick.  This tutorial is also the first one I've made since I've moved to college, so enjoy the
new scenery.

I was the opening act for a great band, Ethnicity, last night.  It was a ton of fun!  Check out the video of my performance.  I know it's a little fuzzy, but you can still totally get the gist of what I was doing.  Ohh and... there are some sneak peaks of new tricks for which new tutorials will be made soon.

About this trick
Split Bottom is a pretty common mount in a lot of old-school tricks.  Well, actually, it's common mount in a lot of frontstyle tricks, which sort of makes it common in old-school tricks.  It doesn't doesn't get used as much as it used to, for sure, but I'm sure there's still a lot of great tricks that are just waiting to be discovered.  Maybe you should be that explorer that reinvents frontstyle.

Have a great time at the World Yo-Yo Contest in Orlando, Florida this weekend, all you throwers who are attending!  I wasn't able to make it to the contest this year unfortunately, but Rethinkyoyo is an official sponsor of the contest, so look for our sign on the stage backdrop!

Good luck to all competitors, do your sport proud!
