Skin the Hamster Tutorial

[Ricky123971]

woohoo! finally got it. a few months ago it looked impossible... but i came back to it and it looked easy as anything after some more experience and got it

[Erick220]

I like how after every trick he's like, "meh it was THAT easy." and just casually walks off the screen while people sit here amazed and inspired lol

The spyy stryker is so awesome. nice trick man! thanks for all the tutorials.

[nuffrid]

Well done, but In the end I'd really like to see the whole thing made in slow-motion.

It starts with the whole trick, then it's step by step with explanation and follow up with the whole thing made slower w/o interrupting walls of text would be really helpful - cause, you know, my sleeper won't stay for 3 minutes on string. ;D

[SkinnyGibby]

what yoyo are you using? it looks like something titanium

[rethinkyoyo]

@SkinnyGibby Nope, just aluminum.  SPYY Stryker, sir.

hi there,rethinkyoyo!

can you make a Seasick tutorial?i have a little problem with this trick:P

btw,LLcoolZack is my friend:P

[rethinkyoyo]

@tikhung01 Hey man! I have actually thought about doing a Seasick tutorial.  I might get around to it one of these days. My issue with tricks like that or Follow or similar tricks is that for the most part, they don't really have any "trick" to them, it's just a major practice/rhythm issue. But yeah, I'm still considering it. Thanks for the suggestion.

What editing software do you use and is it free?

[rethinkyoyo]

@YoyoProWill Nowadays, I use Final Cut Pro X, which is not free. However, for quite a while, I used iMovie, which still isn't free, but is quite a bit cheaper. However, if you're using a Windows computer, you most likely have Windows Movie Maker, which I think is free.

btw, whats the bind you used on the beginnig? I can copy it but what it name is?

[rethinkyoyo]

@Flappy16 it's called a Dave Bind, named after Dave Poyzer, who sort of invented it.

[Flappy16]

SPYY makes great yoyo's ^^ I just got my Radian gen2 it's smoothes thing to throw I ever had in my hand. xd

[yoyojonathan4]

Hppy Birthday dude :)

[rethinkyoyo]

@yoyojonathan4 Thanks man! :)

[deafomega]

how does a hampster differ from a gerbil? I would think skinning a rodent is the same either way :P

But seriously, what is the diff?

[theshaner]

@deafomega There are quite a few more loops in the Hamster

[rethinkyoyo]

@deafomega Watch both of the tricks and find the differences. There are some pretty major ones.
