Tricks I want to see

Sat Aug 02, 2008 1:05 pm

Just thinking about some ADVANCED COMBOS. Please put your hand up and shout loudly if you can do these, and if you can't, go out there and practice then post your homework in the videos section.

Double wap! (two horizontal rotations and back to fade)

Wap-susan! (one and a half horizontal rotations, continue spinnning with lazy susans)

Yo-fade-wap! (hold a yofade, unwrap, continue the unwrap into a wapdowap)

Mutex cascade! (fade into 540 flatspin, pull up into fade again before the 540 completes (a 360 really), repeat the other direction).

Untitled! (tip stand into lazy susan, two pop yoyo to landing (on a tip preferably), take off into lazy into unwrap to tipstand).

Please add to the list any ADVANCED COMBOS you can think of.

yofade BS cascade

yoyo cynique

jacob's ladder with two multiple backspins, yoyo, multilazy, unroll to fade...


Your untitled trick might run into some issues on the unroll, I have tried something like that, but when I get to the unroll I always run out of air, maybe I'm just doing it wrong...

Although difficult, those are all tricks which have been spotted in the wild fairly frequently, the yoyo cynique is particularly common.

Double Wap should be easy as pie on a DS.

The STD Trident does them so you could probably get 3 out of the DS :lol:

Double wap was seen in the wild at the Jolly up :cool:

I found video of Lars doing waps into multilazy...http://www.bensontwins.nl/video/multiwapdoowap.wmv

The mutex cascade.... I think I've seen a video of Juha doing this on a Gemini, can't find it now. The Cosmic you've ordered will do them :thumbsup: and at the start of Pat's Cosmic video he does a variant with the full 540 then a fractured axel back to fade.....http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&VideoID=18029983

Working on the rest. ;)

Edit: Cosmic mutex video

Thanks, like Pat's video. Love the way that the cosmic responds to late pops that on other kites would make it do nothing at all. Your own video is pretty nifty too - that's just how I imagined it, but not so close to the ground. I think its a badass looking trick!

"Untitled" is a bit of a silly trick - not exactly the type of thing you could get to be consistent, more of a "once a session" trick, if you tried it all day.

Repeating flat-spin-fades though is a cool new avenue, must investigate.

I have seen Chris doing a comete that rises this year, looks like one rotation almost stopping then another rotation with a slight gain in height, a bit like cometing of a tip but he carries on.

I can definitely imagine that after seeing how he can force the height on a fountain.
