more solutions for tight: - include more horizontal breakaway tricks, they seem to naturally untighten string (Iori yamaki 2015 worlds) - after each breakaway trick, try to do a frontstyle trick & vice versa. This gets rid of the half twist every new throw - Instead of a breakaway do a forward pass, also loosens string after consecutive forward passes - do a helix bind after a horizontal combo, basically a horizontal sidewinder - include follows, trapeze follows, reverse pinwheels, reverse hooks (all loosen string) - avoid too many breakaway pinwheels and behind the back tricks/horizontal frontstyle lol i have written a full essay
Wow! I asked this topic under your last video and when you liked the comment I was super happy. I was like okay calm down he liked the comment but it might take a while. But then you just post this video in such a short time. I am super happy at the moment. Thank you for taking even a single comment that serious. I hope your channel gets to even better points.
Brandon, How about this, "How to Coreograph like a pro?" Mabey talk about the beginning stages and all the way to the final ajustments of a freestyle. How do you make tricks look good? I know you did a video where you talked about scoring and what judges look at, but mabey make something where you talk about coreographing techniques and how to get started. I always start coreographing by listening to a song in my head and then making tricks that fit the beat before I ever turn on the music for real. Do not know if I am doing the right thing or not but it might be an interesting video. I know there is a lot to talk within that topic but just do what will with it.
Hey Brandon, I am a really big fan of your "like a pro" videos. I really want to learn how to do slack tricks like a professional yoyo player. Thank you for your amazing videos!!
Hi Brandon, you can also use Sleeper sidewinder at the end of your breakaway combo by turning your body to the right side if you are a right hand thrower for smoother transitions of your routine and you also can walk a bit while doing so thus space use.
hey brandon iam anika your subscriber from phillipines i just want you to know your my inspiration for being a good yoyoer and being a good person thank you for that
Hey Brandon I love your “like a pro series” do you think you could do a how to “Pass WildCard Like A Pro”I haven’t noticed that much content on how to pass it and how it really works in detail I know you can help.
I really like how you put examples from freestyles in the videos. It adds a lot of weight to your "like a pro" series. Did you you already know about those examples before making the video or found them as research while planning for video?
Another thing that you can look for is to look for trick elements that tend to loosen the string and string in more of those as you go. Essentially, treat your string tension as a constant property throughout the freestyle and insert elements that move it into the direction you want.
I'm still learning alot of the basics.. I know this might be simple but 2 moves that happen in most speed combos is killing me. The first on is the element were you go into a 1.5 mount but hit the top string and land on the bottom. Most people use it to start the speed combo. I can do it but getting it smooth and fast is another thing. The second element giving me hell is the one where if you sre in buddha's revenge, roll it over both hands and the you use the right hand and maneuver the two strings into the gap and under cut. Getting that smooth has been a problem. I hope my explanation is good enough , if not.i can find a video and give you the time Mark's to show you what I am talking about. I hope you can do a video on this cause no one really gives good tips on how to break it down to get it smooth.
can you do a video on how to use your fingers and body like a pro? i watched tutorials on tricks like kwijibo for example where they show you how to land the tricks properly with the finger positioning which most of the times looks very stiff, but when pros does it they do it so smoothly and fluidly, and without even looking sometimes. does it have to do with finger aligment discipline, muscle memory etc2? im bad at explaining myself but thanks for reading
Samuel Dean depends on preference. I like the Shutter the best. It’s the most stable of the 3. If you like wide yoyos edge monster, if you want something in between choose the Wide angle.
Video idea : how to not get stuck while learning a trick. I often have trouble on one element in a trick and that makes me lose a lot of time trying to get it right instead of learning a new trick. Got any tips for that?
I would even be happy hearing just your opinions on stuff. Like top 5 videos "top 5 favorite freestyles" "top 5 favorite players, or yoyos etc if you're really that stuck :P
Break down the judging on the entire performance evaluation? Music use can a vid alone. Break down 5 yoyo myths? 1. Vibe 2. opening of yoyo 3. dry bearing will give longer spin 4. bearing shield 5. Bi is "better" than mono. Side note: Left-handers will have their strings *loosen* every time you throw the yoyo

Yess, totally needed this!!
Thanks brandon for the tutorial
this is the best yotube channel that exists, do you have an online community or something like that?
What do you use to dig out snags? Do your yo-yos snag? I used a Japanese ear cleaner.. is there a better way?
So good to see your uploading regularly. Been missing you, dude. 👊❤

This "like a pro" series is great. I learn so much.
Joel Dimbernat thanks for the encouragement Joel!
I have always wondered about this! Thanks Brandon!
thank you brandon
How do you save a mistake on a combo or a trick and make it look like it’s part of the trick like a pro?
Yo Brandon please upload more yoyo unboxings, i'm really interested in the YYF BiND's performance and feel.
I'm still learning alot of the basics.. I know this might be simple but 2 moves that happen in most speed combos is killing me.
The first on is the element were you go into a 1.5 mount but hit the top string and land on the bottom. Most people use it to start the speed combo. I can do it but getting it smooth and fast is another thing.

this helps a lot.
thanks man! keep it up! 👊👊👊
BTW i got my MYY Katana. thanks for the suggestion. 👍👍

Yo I learned that first bind from yesterday’s video, I’m gonna learn that wright man bind today
wait how do you know if the. tension is tight when yoyoing (im new at this jus waiting for my ascent)
Which is better shutter, shutter wide angle, or edge monster?
Samuel Dean depends on preference. I like the Shutter the best. It’s the most stable of the 3. If you like wide yoyos edge monster, if you want something in between choose the Wide angle.
Wow this is very very helpful thank you
I know it's a bit late but, could you do a video on frontstyle combos?
Working on sidewinder tonight.
Great vid bro!
I think you made howls day 😊
Yes. I was just finished working and opened the app to relax then see this video and start laughing
Hey Brandon please can you do a video on how to make a good youtube channel because I will soon start my own
I Like the Like a pro Video series
I'll try my best to do more.
Great Video
Nice video!
Awesome suggestion!!!
Should talk about fluid tricks, and how to do it in a PRO way!
like Tsunami bomb, and superman combined.
Can you tell us how to deal with responsive knots on a responsive yoyo?
Like it just goes back up
Video idea : how to not get stuck while learning a trick. I often have trouble on one element in a trick and that makes me lose a lot of time trying to get it right instead of learning a new trick. Got any tips for that?
Thats a nice question
actually, if you are right handed, front throws tighten and breakaways loosen the string
I would even be happy hearing just your opinions on stuff. Like top 5 videos "top 5 favorite freestyles" "top 5 favorite players, or yoyos etc if you're really that stuck :P
brandon vu can u teach an advanced trick plz
yorkshire Lad I’ve got a tut on my body combo, did you want additional combos?
