    Hey guys! Just started playing about 3 months ago and I'm stuck and getting discouraged on LH late ken flip to spike..! Anyone have any good tips and tricks too help? Everyone that I've seen lace it make it look so easy

    Ummmm I was told it was a "late ken flip" but I may be wrong! Basically LH pop the ken up a little, toss the tama up, grab the ken and flip it, then spike

    Yeah! I can get that a solid 50% of the time or more. And I can get a regular LH flip trade spike but it's the late ken flip that gets me..

    Yeah, this "beginner" trick is one I want to be more consistent with too!
    I might comment back some tips once I get a good idea on how to lace this.

    ..."back in my day" - that killed me there.

    I know! everyone is progressing so fast that lunar tres and late kenflips are "beginner"

    Hahaha I guess it isn't technically a "beginner" trick but the basics of it seem like they would be! And I hear ya on the fact that everyone is progressing very quickly! After 2 months in i had lunar tres on lock
