Nachfolge

New frontstyle trick I made up last night. Shoulda made it up earlier so I could’ve put it in the frontstyle video… oh well.

This trick has two very distinct Sebastian Brock elements so it’s mostly inspired by him. The backwards/inverse tunnel exit is a nod to both Mark Allen and Miguel Correa.

Frontstyle 2010

February 28, 2010
http://www.vimeo.com/9760866

I made this video to showcase some of my favorite fronstyle tricks. Some are rather old tricks from ‘04-’06 (Søren/Your Phone is Vibrating), but most are from within the last year or two. Also, some tricks are done somewhat to the side, but they’re all frontstyle tricks with frontspin throws.

Two Birds on a Wire

http://www.vimeo.com/9733193

This trick was either created late late 2009 or early 2010, but I’ve not been able to hit it on camera without flinching/smoothly up until a couple of days ago. Based off of the concept of throwback regens and 5A Freegens.

This trick was developed after playing with some ideas from Jason Lee, (Metronome) and Kota Watanabe, (Thumb mount tricks) and Abe Ziaimehr (vertical movement) and mixing ‘em all together.

These are some tricks from the lost and found, pretty much not intended for public release in this form. Gabe wants ‘em up here, though, and what Gabe wants, Gabe gets. So, here’s some demos at Gabe’s behest. (how many times do you get to say “behest”?)

National Breakthrough (PSY Trailer #2)

February 18, 2010
http://www.vimeo.com/8049442

This was a combination of the Nationals 2001 contest video as well as the second PSY trailer. It featured not only footage from the 2001 National Yo-Yo Contest, but also various clips sent in from around the world. I believe this video was the internet-debut of Arthur Staykov, one of the B3 members from Poland.

Looking back at the video, we start to see the emergent trend of faster tricks as well as more complex string tricks. By 2003, these trends eventually led to a new renaissance in 1A where more emphasis was placed on getting as many string-hits into a single combo as possible. This is one of the last glimpses of the 1A of yesteryear. Aside from the PSY/String Theory DVD, this was one of the last videos I released publicly on the old Sector Y.
