Regeneration Tricks? Next level tricks?
« on: October 08, 2016, 03:15:57 AM »

Hello Everyone,

I have learned to do quite a number of regeneration tricks:
Roller Coaster
Sewing Machine
DrumBeat
Joker Choker
Drum Roll
Butter Rolls
One Hand Lasso Regens

I am not necessarily looking for "insane" tricks but can someone please suggest a couple of other tricks that I can use to progress in my skill level? I am comfortable doing these tricks, but they are not mastered yet, however, my daily practice routine demands more regeneration tricks and I can't find any!

Thank you,

The name is barrel rolls. (butter rolls makes me hungry  ;) )

The next regen trick I would learn would be right-arm half-orbits (but not full orbits).
Spinning spiders is another one.
Or, like The Earl suggested, behind-the-back sewing machine.

One-hand-lasso regens is not something I have tried to learn, so you are better than me on that.

Dear Earl of Whirl,

When you list these tricks, are they similar to the diabolo trick versions? I understand under the leg and behind the back fair enough (can't do it), but would you please tell me where the diabolo is supposed to go when you say "around the body"?

Dear ta0,

haha, yes, barrel rolls!
Half orbits? What are those? Are you referring to the diabolo  right arm orbit but with a spintop? I can see what you mean by the "half orbit" as a full orbit is impossible (or at least very difficult, I can't do it!) with a spintop. Is that what you meant?

Is there anywhere I can learn about the "Spinning spider's" trick?

Yes, one handed lasso regens are pretty difficult to learn, but I can do them naturally now. It does take practice. I can do dual lasso catches with a top in each hand, but that took months of work. I will try to make a video of it sometime!

Thank you for your advice I am working on "under the leg" now!

You can see a video with a bunch of half-orbits (starting at 5:00) on a post by John Buechele the first day I started this forum:

The beginning of the video shows full orbits but leave those for later.

The original thread for Spinning Spiders (when we named them) is here:
