Astrojax: Powerplay Tricks Block

Powerplay is characterized by fast tricks, many of which are full-string tricks.

This is more of a hybrid block, with different tricks from different blocks fused into it. There are 2 types of trick blocks, hybrids and normal. Normal is where all of the tricks are similar in style (such as rebound or juggling) and hybrid is a bunch of tricks that aren't necessarily similar in style, but are used to bring about a desired effect (like the powerplay block is used to bring about a "really fast" and "body movement" effect). Hopefully this didn't confuse you. This idea isn't that important at the moment, but I will be building on it in the future, probably at the same time i redo most of these videos and revise the trick blocks... So yeah, it'll be awhile before all this happens.

Someday, Ill do some revising of many of my trick blocks; making hybrids, and more categories. But that someday may be a long ways away so these blocks will do good enough and serve its purpose for now. So there may be some tricks that dont exactly fit into a block; you can tell me, and Ill recategorize it and fix it. But dont be afraid to make your own trick blocks to fit what you think characterizes a trick!

Just really quick; when i say i'm going to revise the trick blocks, i mean i'm going to organize them better. there are a few tricks that don't exactly belong in them... but the blocks will essentially stay the same. don't worry. :)

And then there are 2 different types of play: sticking to one block, or shuffling things up and using 2 different blocks at the same time. (which is very hard, I havent gotten that far) in theory, it looks great when you use two different blocks at the same time, because it looks like youre doing all sorts of crazy stuff, instead of tricks that all look somewhat similar. Someday I hope to be able to know my blocks well enough that i can mix two together... Someday I'll practice what i preach. :)

sooo, since I'll be revising these someday, you can let me know which COMMON tricks you think should be in a certain blocks, or shouldn't be in a block. That'll be taken into account when i remake these videos again to make them look more professional. but like i said, unless it's a huge mistake, it'll be a while before i remake them.

quick note: these trick blocks have COMMON tricks, at least the ones i think everyone knows (or should know). so yes, there are many that can go in these, but i'm only sticking with the commonly known tricks. that's why i say make your own blocks, because there are tricks that you know that need to be organized, but i haven't covered them.

Shoot, this was long! sorry guys. :)
