About this trick
Kinda like Amuse, in that it's a nice and smooth repeater trick, but unlike Amuse, in that there's not any massive string burn.  Nice combination, huh?

By the way, this needs mentioning.  I've noticed many people around are calling this trick "Gobble."  The name of the trick is Globble.  GLOBBLE. With an L.  It is not GOBBLE, the noise a turkey makes.  There's your spelling correction for the day.  Carry on.

About this trick
This one's a classic, for sure.  I haven't quite figured out why, though.  The movements feel slightly jerky to me, and there don't seem to be any major characteristics about the trick that would distinguish itself from any other frontstyle combos.  Oh well, there's probably some fantastic story behind the trick that I just haven't heard yet.

Have fun with it. :)

About this trick
I love this trick.  Crowds love this trick.  You're going to love this trick. It, just like all tricks, will take some getting-used-to. But, when you're learning it, don't try to land the Split Bottom Mount, let the yoyo sit on the mount, and then start swinging. It's much more difficult to do it in steps than to starting the swinging motion immediately when you hit the Split Bottom.
