Pause For Alarm
7/20/11
I actually came up with this tonight while doing yo-yo tricks for my kids’ bedtime story.
A few years back I found this great children’s book called “Slim & Jim” where the main characters are a mouse and a rat who are really good at yo-yo tricks. The kids are finally old enough to dig the book, and they want Jenni to read it while I do all the yo-yo tricks that are mentioned in the book. So during a lull in the story where I wasn’t needing to narrate the tricks, I twiddled around and came up with today’s trick.
Check out the book (available here: http://goo.gl/OvHJO) if you have the chance. It’s great for kids…or for obsessive compulsive yo-yo collectors. 😉
Song is “I Know I’ll See You” by A Place To Bury Strangers.

This is actually just the mount for a new trick I’m working on, but the rest of the trick isn’t done. Plus, this is stupidly hard to hit consistently.
Song is “Jackson” by Panthro U.K. United 13. They appear courtesy No Idea Records.

Fugi
7/17/11
Just a weird little way to get into an odd, twisted version of Mach 5. Something I’ve been twiddling with and just got around to filming.
Named for Fugi, one of the pups that hangs out at Rotofugi…which is an excellent shop owned by some friends of mine, as well as the only place in Chicago to buy YoYo Factory yo-yos! Woo hoo!!
Song is “The Itch” by Cutman.
Yo-yo used is the One by YoYo Factory….available now at Rotofugi!

Eric Wolff’s Liquor Cabinet
7/15/11
Eric Wolff is the only person I know who when asked “Do you have any whiskey?” would produce a bottle for 15+ year old Korean whiskey in a porcelain bottle.
It’s clear, and horrifically strong. Burns like an ex-wife.
Song is “Rum To Whiskey” by Murder City Devils.
Yo-yo used is the Superwide by YoYo Factory.
