I’ve been twiddling with this all morning. It’s fun. Watching the video back I realized I was going 4-3-4 instead of 4-4-4…guess I need to practice it a bit more. π

Chain Reaction
4/15/11
I hadn’t actually planned on filming this trick, but enough people kept asking me.
I made up this trick in 1996 on an early version of the Spintastics Technic. It’s much harder on a wooden axle.
Of historical note: from the best I can tell this is technically the first true “repeater”, which is a string trick that by it’s own nature resets itself to be repeated. This is also the very first original trick I created. π

This is a tiny variation. Very tiny. Look closely.
This is also a prelude to tomorrow’s trick. π

This is one of those tricks that is so simple and obvious that I start twiddling around and when I come to it I think “This can’t possibly be new.” Then I spend 4 hours combing old videos and can’t find it.
So, if someone already came up with this on their own….sorry. But I just found it last night. It’s new to me. π

I often delight in creating the smallest of tricks, so small they go almost unnoticed by even other yo-yo players. Tiny little adjustments that look like nothing, but feel nice to me.
Those might be my favorite tricks. Tiny jokes that I wrote just for myself, to remind me that it’s just a toy, even if it’s been a job for a decade and a half.

I like tricks that you can repeat forever until the yo-yo just stops spinning.

Remember the trick “Flim Flam” from Jan. 27th? Yeah, you can turn it into a repeater that is obnoxiously hard but kinda ends up looking like cigar box juggling.

If I could ever convince my buddy Ed to play counterweight, this is the sort of stuff he would do. Except that he would make an awful face while he did it, and somehow exude pure, radiant joy in the process.
Me, I just look like I’m tired and irritated. Which I am, but it has nothing to do with this trick. Ha.
