    Yanks and some times to many juggles. 3 is the max after that it gets boring and not impressive. And I'm talking through the whole line

    Same as ben said, i was never a fan of string tricks and string flow...spacewalk is more than enough for me. Also hate stilts but only kus i kan hardly land them.

    I SUCK at lunars and I just don't like string tricks. I mean I just do them while walking but I hardly do any string trick lines.

    I've only been playing for 3 months so I don't know a load of tricks but I have quite a few favourites.

    Favourite: I'm finally getting JUGGLE TO SPIKE so it's satisfying after the struggle of 2 months, LATE SLINGS def a favourite, love TAPS because I love the sound of multiple of them and FAST HANDS is also nice to do because I just feel like I'm the flash.

    Least favourite: HANDLE AND SLIP STALL I can't get them at all, BOARDERS BALANCE I swear that stuff is just wizardry and lastly I hate UFO's with a passion because I find grip is so awkward and I can't even do a single one

    Fav: lighthouse. I freakin love lighthouse I'm literally always doing it. Most of the Instagram vids I post are lighthouse lines. Other than that maybe kenflips
    Least: I absolutely suck at lunars. So difficult

    String tricks, they look awesome but every time I try to do them I end up smashing the ken into the ground of smashing it into myself

    My favorite trick is between gunslingers and multiple turn airplane/swap spikes. They're my most honed trick, so I can really get down on them!

    Least favorite tricks include bird over valley, and axe. I agree with a lot of people on this one, things just don't feel right about it haha

    Favorite: finger rolls. Been super into them lately.

    Least favorite: hate to say this but doible juggles. Maybe just juggles all together. Same reason as a lot of you, toss one too hard and high or just fuck it up all together, especially on doubles.
