    Since it's related to the topic, what do you do on your grind day? Stretch? Drink water?

    Personally, I break out my camera and tripod, pack a few extra shirts, find a good spot, and grind until I lace or it gets dark.

    When I'm grinding out a trick. It's either outside in my grass throughout the afternoon, or chilling in my bathroom late at night because it has the best lighting. Last night I was going after double whirlwind and hit it a couple times. Hone zones are real.

    I'm also trying to grind lightning drop trade spikes. I feel like if I can get the throw after a lightning drop down, I can get airplane 1.5 trade spikes, and juggles way easier.

    Yea, I'm not very good at juggling, I should get on that grind. I've been juggling balls a bit lately though, and it has definitely carried over back to dama play.
