Round 13:

Trick: Untitled
Keyword: Insane
Deadline: April 19th 22:30 BST

So, let's go for something that is also in the spirit of outlink, giving less instructions about the tricks.

You have to copy this trick, (at 1:58, the video should start at that point)

The following people are still in for round 13:

Haha I like it, that's going to need a little studying

hey @shalafi i think i need a little explanation on the first part.
is the string constantly wrapped around the finger? or just when it comes to the swirl.
also, what are you doing with the ken at the very first motion?

thanks in advance.

shalafi

Some tips coming tonight. More tips tomorrow night if still needed.

The string is always in contact with the finger, but it only gets fully wrapped at the swirl.

You almost got it. The only part that is not correct is the one before the swirl. You've done the same trick twice (index roll). The first trick is index roll, but the second is pinwheeled Suns.

Explaining that was going to be my tip of tonight anyway :-)

Check out wrist roll from past year outlink (similar trick) and pinwheeled suns from IKO 2015 to see that part on isolation.

Ahh, that's the bit I was unsure of. Was so quick in your video I missed it. I'll take a look at that and refilm [emoji4]

The video from IKO 2015 should be a good reference, except that the direction is reversed... But the concept is the same. I may have recorded it on that direction as well in one of my edits.

Not sure if this is any better, haha.

It is. I had to watch it many times because it goes quote fast, so even on that is a fair copy of the original ;-)

I can complain that when the Ken does the full swing, the string is quite slack, which wasn't in your first attempt, but that's the only possible complain. You can film again if you want, but I'd say this is "good enough"

Haha. Well that only took a minute so I'm sure I can manage a refilm after work tomorrow.

Cool, I prefer to see it completed nice and clean.
