Answer: No, just buy clones.
Even if I didn’t want to buy a clone, I would buy a clone first just to make sure I wasn’t going to dislike a $750 toy. The prices they’re asking for some stick and some bearings is unjustified
@@OkieDokieSmokie Absolutely agreed. Two aluminium rods and 4 screws for 310$ wtf
amen
double scissors and rev giraffes should be done more
Totally agree! Too bad I can’t do them 😂
I definitely think there's diminishing returns starting from 200-300, for example I will always strongly think that my wing was definitely worth it, but I struggle with justifying the price of the Sasori, on the other hand, I think that my Superfly is super worth it compared to everything else I have, but that's only because I got it for 200 on discount. But in the end value tends to be quite subjective. Great video!
Thank you! 🙏 😊
good job another great video keep it up
🙏
I feel kinda bad for will and Brandon lol. They worked with Nabalis to release the vulp, then bam, they release the canyon. THEN they were like “Teflon Vulp guys!” And then they released the cheese which is super similar
Yeah it is unfortunate the vulp got beat out
personally i dont care about how it looks
I was not a massive fan of how the prysma pro looks and i flip it way more than my mako v4.5
Mood
Hey i recently started posting videos and this video has been super helpful! Thanks
🙏
Wd-40 works the same instead of oil?
No
so if i dont show my face and im underage , technically how whould they know? im 14 and my voice has prt much evolved. what u say
I definitely can’t recommend going against TH-cams policies but you may be able to get away with it
@@jakeflipsbalisongs thanks for the help man
+1 subscriber, let’s get you to the 1k
🙏
A balisong, by definition, is a type of knife. A trainer is not a knife, therefore by definitin not a balisong. Flip what you want, just don't call it a balisong. :) Honestly, I'd flip more trainers if it didn't cut into my balisong budget. They're great for training, but don't get the same satisfaction without that tiny little risk involved.
Well I can’t speak as to the satisfaction of live blades having never flipped a live one (that wasn’t a piece of junk). I would definitely call trainers balisongs. Sure you could be pedantic and say they are just “balisong trainers” but most people in the hobby today only care about balisong flipping and that can be achieved with a trainer or a live blade. I appreciate the comment though! 🙏 Edit: Also I have nothing else to call it as it definitely isn’t a butterfly knife (I avoid that term since TH-cam doesn’t like knives) and I think balisong trainer is too long to say especially since generally I say balisongs as in the entire hobby. Cheers
First Bali was a live blade back in 2015. Definitely a situation back then where if you wanted a good flipper it was going to have to be a live blade. There was the bench made 40T which you hardly see and the prodigy. Squid was just starting to poke his head in the game but was still a couple years away from being squid industries. And of course there were some other options but nothing like today. Fortunately now for the people who don’t want live blades, a lot of makers are doing trailer versions of their products. Machinewise has a trainer variant for all its products and so does LDY I believe.
Yep we are truly in a trainer revolution! I honestly think that in the coming years the community might shift its focus to false live blades more than anything but only time will tell! 🙏
Once I got my slift and maryn I rarely flip my Madko anymore. Live blades are just way more fun and it feels like I flip with a purpose. Aerials are so much more satisfying
Makes perfect sense! I can’t wait to get my first live blade 🙏
I'm one of those old school OGs (been flipping Bali song since around 1986). Trainers really sucked for many decades. Pretty much until Squid and BB Barfly got into it. Now that trainers are as good as they are, my skill in flipping has increased 10-fold. Prior to having a bushing, tight tolerance, trainer I plateaued at things like Bt8B, Hell Bent, Cherry Pickers, etc. I never wanted to do aerial tricks because I would get sliced up pretty often. Now that I have great quality trainers, I don't see a need to ever own a live blade except just to have it. They do look better IMO. The market is now seeing a lot more false-edge live blade or unsharpened options. I think this is where the industry should go. More false-edge live blades. Best of both worlds.
I totally agree! 🙏
great topic, i flip trainers 90% of the time. I usually only flip a live blade if im camping (because i can also use it as a knife) or if i am working on my smoothness. i find it much easier to be smooth on a live blade because there is a actual risk if im not flipping smoothly.
Good video and a good topic.
Thank you 🙏 😊
Hi, i have question on balisong do you have any idea if i order Vulp pro with slow shipping when its gonna come? Im next to Germany Thx for answer❤
I have no idea but you may be able to get an answer on community discords or in the balisong subreddit 🙏
I got a SHEIN ad 😂
Oh man! If only I got ad revenue 😂
I started flipping when I was 14. I’m 22 now. Hobby is even better now as I have adult money and have a great collection and am able to trade with others
"It's more of a sidequest than a main storyline trick." I like the way you said that.
i do the knuckle duster all the time baby
the knuckleduster imo is a move that doesn't really work well in making a combo look good if you try to string another move after it. Sure you can combo it, and it will actually string together, but it just doesn't look nor feel that good to do from my experience
Tricks Nobody Does because its not wery cool... just basicks trix for begginers
I disagree with this take but to each their own. I feel that there is no trick that is “for beginners” yes there are easier tricks but we all still do moved like the y2k or double rollout despite them being among the first tricks beginners learn
5:06 , bless you
🙏
Exactly for meee
I’m 12 I started at 7 so yes it’s for kids
You make Areals too oftem
To each their own. If you think I do a lot of aerials then you should see @red_edge_ on instagram! 🙏
I mean, your Areals are supie dupie. And i think you Love Areals 🦑
You work at Dairy Queen also?
Yes I do 🫡
Yoooo I'm 13 and flip from almost a year now, and it's amazing hobby.
Great topic!
Even though I don't have any interest on making and posting videos I still think these guidelines are really not the best but at the same time safety I guess
I am very curious what part of these guidelines you take issue with. All of these are just from my experience as well as the experience of other balisong TH-camrs. Interested to hear what others have to say though 🙏
@@jakeflipsbalisongs well one thing I never really understood is why TH-cam doesn't let younger people make this kind of content and sometimes when it's obviously an older person like you or Blade bias there's some videos that I can't find I remember watching blade bias unboxing the ufo balisong and I was trying to rewatch it but TH-cam doesn't let me
Oh I totally agree! No clue why they don’t allow it. I just know they don’t and trying to go against them is not likely to end well
Balisong trainers can certainly make for a great toy!
Totally agree! 🙏
I believe the proper name for that last trick is a reverse index rollover
Well I’ve heard two different names for it now so I still have no clue 😂
You got everyone sharing their age lmao
I’m m twelve and I started at 10 and I love balisongs and my fave is the oranges color mako for si
My favorite amateur flipping technique is when you do a trick and get stuck at the last second so you use your other hand to poke the knife into possition 🤣
I love that 😂
My kids are 8 and 12, both can do the basic opening. Very proud dad! My daughter (the 8 y/o) wants a trainer, I'm thinking of getting her a pink Vulp for Christmas.
Wonderful to hear! 🙏
i started flipping a mako v4.5 when i was 12
Mood 😎
You guys are so lucky to have trainers. The only way to get a balisong used to be flea markets and stands in the malls. Only crappy live blades. Got caught with one in school at 12. Banned from all public schools in the state and serious legal repercussions. All could have been avoided with a trainer.
Yeah we really are in a golden age of flipping 🙏
i personally am 15 and have been flipping for 3 years. Just got my first live blade a little bit ago (kraken v3). I personally think that anybody can start flipping whenever but should not use live blades until they are somewhat mature
I agree, was gonna comment that
Im also 15 and have been flipping for around 2 years, and I agree that almost all kids should stay away from live blades. Where I live, in the UK, you cant even own live balisongs at home due to legal restrictions, and honestly, I dont feel like I would trust myself with a live blade.
Yes, live blades are a whole different ball game that I don’t think kids (especially young ones) should be getting into
wow we all 15, hope youre enjoying high school as much as me guys!
@@OilyBalisong yessirrr
Two minutes. I’m your first view what’s up
I still do the latch drop everyday but just hold it at the bottom of the handle
my opinion, you can slam a tang pen knife as hard as you want open and shut since the pin is in a steel blade and the pin will not feel hard force cause the slam is both handles clapping the pin so the pin aint being pressed in any direction because equal force from both sides. vs zen pins when you slam it the pins are being pushed in or out and can cause it to crack or break out or bend
me who does the latchdrop every single time i pick up my bali cuz im a beginner 😢
Don’t worry we all start somewhere! 🙏
Can't believe the creator of a video actually responded to my comment lol
chocker fan have some variation that definitely looks cool
so, latch tricks, the only person i know who would incorporate the latch into their combos well and impressively, is @___hey.austin, bros an OG goat, check his older clips with his orange 51, and youll see some wild latch stuff. latch tricks are uncommon cuz theyre non existent, and theyre not very fun or rewarding considering how much practice it takes to even get decent at em. knuckle dusters can be impressive, when theyre not done in slomo lol, either closer to your hand so its not such a high aerial, and more of a handle transfer, or do a full rotation or more, add more to the tricks youre doing, you can even do it as an opener, those look pretty cool. but, tbh, rev knuckle dusters are much cooler in general. the cheater shortstop, the telltale sign of newer flippers, i did it myself way before i could shortstop, so im not flaming, but maaan is it such an underwhelming opening. just learn the shortstop, its way easier to learn if you separate learning the trick into 2 parts. learn the rev thumb rollover to middle finger first, get that motion down pat, then learn the actual catch on its own, hold the save handle with your middle finger on top, ring finger on the bottom, and the blade pointing out, then practice catching it. theres 2 hard parts to learning it, one is getting your thumb in between the bite handle and the blade, and the other part is actually having the handles connect so its in icepick position, its all about momentum. after that, just put em together and boom, shortstop. tldr: good video, beginner perspective of tricks, but tbf thats also why you dont see them super often, if you want to get a flipping clip, you wanna do harder tricks, no reason to pad your combo with filler if you can do harder stuff. goodluck learning the shortstop, and goodluck learning in general.
title should be: Tricks People Never Do
I think Z-Choker is its own thing. It was way easier to learn than the Choker fan. For me at least. Some tricks you didn't mention are the full twirl, ladders, fans.
I feel that twirls and fans fall into basic tricks that you have to learn in order to progress while I feel ladders are like an optional side quest. In general I wanted to focus on more specific tricks rather than categories
juat learned behind the 8 ball a few days ago and it always feels so satisfying to pull it off smoothly
for me number 1 is behind the 8 ball, feel like everyone does it, just helped me so much with learning other tricks
