Thanks Daniel for posting this! It's an honor to be a guest in the TOTW series!
I told Daniel about this trick in Reykjavik and in a few attempts he could do as many as I do on the video. I had the idea years ago (I showed it to Gus in Orlando), but I have not been able to do long runs because of misses. It's surely a regen trick, basically a Joker Choker around the body (I thought about naming it Joker's Revenge, but decided to go nice and called it Joker Hug
). The only doubt is if it would be possible to stay facing the same direction at the steady regen spin or if the precession would force one to turn.
It ain't easy, but I really look forward to seeing somebody do 20 or more catches in a row. That's a challenge for all you out there!
