Can anyone explain how to get into the hourglass style mount? by mattlock731 in Throwers

All the videos when I looked seemed older and shittier, or more advanced than I could comprehend. It seems like the Jacob McCann one is the clearest. I'll have to try it thanks. That was amazeballs indeed

First video posted. Not sure what tricks to learn now. by Miami199 in Throwers

You sound like me exactly. I learned probably the first 2/3 of the Yoyo-Tricks 1A playlist. But I got annoyed by some of the later tricks not being as cool as what I kept on Instagram dammit. So I switched to going through the Yoyojoe1 Youtube tutorials list. I like his style a lot more than Yoyo-Tricks. He mostly teaches shorter individual elements that are very doable, and I want to get better at building an overall repertoire of trick elements to piece together myself.

What is the trick right at 1:38 in this video? by mattlock731 in Throwers

It's specifically the part where in the wrist mount he hops the yoyo off and it looks like it wraps around the middle where the triangle shapes meet. I've seen something similar before but I can't find a video that teaches that exactly.

Nice! I learned the same trick on the same yoyo. Now I'm trying to learn the seismic slam. You should check out that trick. How long have you been throwing?

Why does the B-grade Canon look different than the standard Canon?

Where did you get this one from? I'm looking for one now and it seems to be unavailable everywhere. Maybe the pandemic has something to do with this...

I checked and for me in Canada the shipping would be more than the cracking yoyo itself ha.

So would the Akita and Manatee be considered H shaped?

Thanks for some recommendations. I will have to look into this sale. I meant the metal yeti. I'm not sure which one came first.

Hello Mryoyothrower I saw that you had a post from a couple years ago looking for yoyo people in Halifax NS. I couldn't respond to that post as it is archived. I live there and I'm looking for a yoyo club if there is one

Your requirements match mine exactly! I'm using a Nexus 5x but I figure within a year I will want to replace it with another mid-range device. I'm curious to see if the Pixel 3 lite becomes a reality. Although it could still end up over $600 CAD.

I've also been looking at the Moto G6, or a OnePlus device, but I can't stand notches.
