    Worth mentioning too... just about any trick that takes you into a true grind mode.
    The moment you get it... its surreal. Its like your entire world was focused on accomplishing this one manoeuvre, and then it happens, and that means you're done. feelsgoodman.jpg

    What exactly is a goon circle? Does it go by another name? Did you do a tutorial for KUSA under a different name @htimSxelA? "Moon Circle Quick Spike?"

    If it's the same trick I am thinking about then it's Das Beeez Kneez!! Same with the Space Walk Aeroplane version, don't know what that would be called.

    Turntables and the trick where you spin it on your pinky. I love those.

    Spacewalks. Especially when they're super smooth and the Ken floats right into the tama like it's magnetic.

    Not a trick as such, but the tama shuffle when you reposition your tama or ken in lighthouse (and lunar?)! I remember seeing this and thinking woah I have enough trouble holding it in lighthouse and these guys are purposely wobbling it about to get the next set!!

    If I get a good juggle line with a late ken flip it feels awesome

    Yeah that trick feels so good. What is the tama to tama space walk version called @htimSxelA, like a "space goon?"

    Tama to tama is obscurely called 'sun circle'. As an insta trick, I guess it would depend on the direction you're spinning it. Either 'sun circle insta plane' or 'full scramble insta plane' I guess. Those aren't common tricks though so while I think those names are technically correct, most people might not immediately understand.

    Going ken-> tama would be 'goon walk' or 'spacewalk quickplane' I guess.

    Landed a pull up 5x kenflip to Spike last night, that felt pretty satisfying. Feels so good to just go HAM on the kenflip and then just nail the spike. Next I'm going to get the downspike version.
