Amigo Rodrigo
2/26/11
That first little loop thrown straight from a 1.5 mount is from my buddy Rodrigo Yokota, a.k.a. “Whip”. The rest is just me looking for ways to make things unnecessarily difficult.

Sorry for the lame trick name, but I really couldn’t think of anything else. It’s been a long day already.

This is what I was trying to hit yesterday. It’s a long was from smooth and consistent, but it’s still pretty awesome.

Money Shot

This is a “payday” trick. When I do shows for non-players, I end with this trick and it kills ’em, every time. There are yo-yo tricks that yo-yo players love, and there are tricks that get you paid…this trick gets you paid.

This is just the very beginnings of a trick, but I like where it’s going so I’m sharing a little early in the process. Fully expect to see this beginning mount turn up again later…

Rollover Suicide
2/18/11
Continuing yesterday’s theme of making things unnecessarily difficult just because I can, here’s a suicide to cross-armed Trapeze & His Brother, interrupted with a grind on the back of my throwing hand.
I love this trick. Feels good, and when you slow it down it looks amazing.

Love Tap
2/17/11
One of my favorite things about watching skating are those super brief little bits that happen so incredibly quickly, and yet you know if they’d been off or slower by just a hair they would have completely wiped out.
For a while, I got really in to building tricks around the most subtle of elements….a grind that lasts just a second or two. But it makes a HUGE difference in being able to hit a suicide when you try and throw a grind in the middle of it, however brief. It’s a nice reminder that it’s the little things that matter.
