Title: Eclipse
Post by: The Void on 20 March, 2015, 10:38:56
This is a pretty hard trick, and I haven't managed it since 1999, and it was a very weak effort then. Please to have made some progress, even if incredibly slowly. ;)

About 85% here, and mid-level cloud cover to begin with, which eased off over the course of it. Fun with binoculars and pizza boxes. Will post pics when I get the chance... busy day ahead.

Me and Lee decided to go and play some kendama and watch the eclipse. Think it was too cloudy down here as we saw nothing, but i managed to do lighthouse to spike for first time woo.

Nice one, Jamie! Sweet little video shot too.
That trick has a couple of names:
LH > Tradespike
LH > Swap In
LH > Fast Hand Spike

With a ">" after Aeroplane, that sounds about right.

Meanwhile, here are some Eclipse pics. Nothing spectacular: http://tlmb.net/galleries/Eclipse2015/ (http://tlmb.net/galleries/Eclipse2015/)
