About this trick
This trick tutorial was requested by a friend of mine.  The trick was so named because he wanted to show a little Canadian pride.

The very last move before the triangle is the most frustrating part.  It's difficult to keep the yoyo mounted while you move the string under it.  Even after practicing this trick quite a bit, I still slip on that part.  I would just suggest practicing it slowly (that tends to give you more controlled movements) and getting comfortable with that, then smoothing and speeding it up gradually.

After more than 2h30min of same-trick training, I got it...man, I'm exausted.
Keep the yoyo mounted while I string under it was complicated, but dismount it was really hard! And all I needed to do was pull up the two sides of the triangle at the same time to make the yoyo jump.
Man, my back hurts! haha!
But thanks for the new trick. ^^

A lot of love from this video, hmm?

Marcos, I'm not sure how I never responded to you! CONGRATS man! That is a stinkin' long time to be working on a trick, more power to you.

Also, "<3," I have no plans to do a Yuuki Slack tutorial, because Andre has a very thorough video on it already. It's one of those tricks that a bunch of tutorials doesn't help with, you just need practice.

These are excellent. Some of the clearest explanations out there and well filmed. Thanks for taking the time to do these.

Just wanted to show a little appreciation for such clear and friendly tutorials. I like the music a lot as well. Gosh, I see I'm not the only one posting in the middle of the night... Ok, back to sleep now, but also I'm glad to see the Speed Freak in action. I got this yoyo recently because I got to handle it in a local store, and it just felt so nice and friendly. But the more I use it the more I see how well it responds: It opens up...? I'm amazed. I personally find it to be even a little more friendly with some YYJ thin shims, which kind of soften the bounce a little (as I'm not so used to metal yoyo's) and makes it feel as though I'm working "with the axel" of the yoyo more. Maybe it's slightly odd, but it's cool.
Thanks,

About all the love for this trick: Maybe it's referred to the bacon, or the love for Canada. :) I'm in Minnesota, and it seems people here love bacon too.

I am finding it excessively hard to swing the yo yo onto the back-most string from 0:29-0:38.Even if i do manage to swing it backwards,it usually lands on both of the strings.I probably just need more practice,but do you have any tips to make it easier?

Thanks:)
