Ky Zizan – Total Recall
10/5/13

Hardflip Suicide – Ed Haponik
10/4/13
“Found this while playing around with fixed axle concepts on unresponsive yo-yo’s for my Fixed Friday column. Similar in effect to 3D Drewicide, but also totally different. If you watch the slow-mo carefully, you’ll notice a late rejection right before the catch which gets rid of the initial mutation.” – Ed

Dodgy Video Quality – Darnell Hairston
“I named this trick for the jerky movements that reminded me of when old TVs would go on the fritz and the picture would jump. Not for the actual video quality of the video, dodgy though it may be.” – Steve

The Double McGuffin – Jacob Jensen

Steel Butterfly – Rafael Matsunaga
09/23/2013
“This is Steel Butterfly, a.k.a. the 5A/13A Iron Butterfly. Based of course on the legendary 3A Iron Butterfly, originally by Ryan Lai, Paul Yath, and Sky Kiyabu.
In Ryan’s words: ‘Pure accident with me and Paul Yath. We were messing around with random formations til Paul saw potential for buckets. I move my hand around and the string slips getting into butterfly. We couldn’t figure out how to recreate it so Sky took a look and figured the whole thing out again.’
Here’s Ryan performing it: youtube.com/watch?v=hk59bU_c3EI ” – Rafael
