    Busy day trying new tricks that I just hadn’t got around to. I laced an orbit (really it was big cup-orbit-base cup-spike), around Europe, and around USA! Slowly working up there. I know that’s not super impressive, but improvement!

    I finally figured out around spike juggle spike. Tossing the tama higher off the ken before the juggle really helped me.

    I'm practicing for a local open division contest!

    I landed Little Wing, clock to nightingale, in. It's one of the harder tricks on the list, but I seem to have it relatively locked down.

    I got out of my slump FINALLY and played two hours yesterday, and at least three hours today! After months of not trying them, and taking at least half and hour to land that first one ever, I hit that level up grind and started practicing 1.5 trade spikes HARD. I was able to hit six or seven of them!!!
    I also worked on honing my juggles, hole control while juggling, inward loons and gunslinger spikes.
    I even got my first double juggle to big cup ever today! Juggle spike still evades me, but I think I'm improving my control a lot, and practicing trade spikes should help.
    And yesterday I got my first ever inward lunar flip.

    It's a great feeling when you have a session where you just know you improved.

    fast hand penguin spike, also finally did bird and swing to bird spike. Licking Tama hole really works.
