So I’m a noob when it comes to the Rubik’s cube, but going down that rabbit hole has caused me to become aware that people not only lube their cubes for better times/overall feel, they also add scents to the lube, like ramen… 🍜 🤣😂

I wonder if it would work in a yo-yo bearing? 🤔

GM happy Thursday! Here’s a trick from September of 2022, wanted to incorporate an arm grind in this one :)

I enjoy them to an extent, there are some advanced tricks to be done on a traditional fixed axle yo-yo. But I do prefer using one with a bearing because it unlocked more potential for tricks :)

Suppose I want to post a long form story about a trip to a yo-yo contest, it has pictures I would like to display throughout in the middle of paragraphs to help illustrate the narrative, can I have these photos displaying in the correct order somehow on nostr? Because it generally feels like they all get kicked down to the end of the message as a slideshow.

GM, sorry for staring.

“No look” trick from Sept of 2019.

Haha I have had some close calls with yo-yos flying from a broke string but thankfully never had one disassemble while throwing it. Well no completely, I’ve heard one rattling after a weird catch caused a hub to loosen but fixed it before it exploded 😅 Ty for the comment :)

If I remember right, I had been challenged to do a yo-yo trick that started from dropping the yo-yo instead of throwing it. This was what I ended up with. Almost became a repeater at the end 😅

Thank you! This is a yo-yo I had made, I named the model “Mori” :)

A yo-yo trick from September of 2021. One of the harder ones I’ve landed.

Thank you! Happy to hear you enjoyed the tricks! 😊🙌

Here’s a yo-yo trick from 09-06-2022, I was trying to use elements I didn’t normally use in a single combo.

One of the older yo-yo trick videos I’ve posted that still has its original upload date. 17 years ago 😅

I was thinking of wearing my old suit coat when recording tutorials. Not 100% sure about it but I already recorded about 30 minutes of info in it so far. Here’s what the coat looks like.

This yo-yo trick used a direction change to land a green triangle on the freehand. I call that portion the brother hop gt because of how it reminds me of the trick “trapeze and his brother”.

Watching all of the scientific documentary stuff has me noticing the contrast between the science world and the political world when you reach a certain age in the political world. Eventually, others begin to conspire for your downfall, and in the scientific world, it seems as if as you age, not only does the lifetime of accomplishment compound into something wonderful, but others seem to rally towards making sure that your lifetime of work, assuming it is in congruence with nature, is promoted to the edges of reality.

Thank you that’s kind of you to share! It definitely starts to look like cats cradle here and there. When I do mess up, it’s as bad as you’d imagine, untangling the knot lol 😂

Thank you! Happy you liked it 😊

This is a yo-yo trick from two years ago. At the time I was really enjoying exploring, three-dimensional whips and that sort of element so this trick is full of them.

MizzyDotion is a yo-yo trick I came up with around 2019/2020. It incorporates slack, string rejections, and some non-intuitive elements I enjoy mixing together. This is a fast and to the point tutorial breaking it down for those who want to learn it. Best of luck!
