Thanks a lot, Pulp!  Watching Gus is always a source of amazement!  The way he starts the routine, combining so many tricks, is out of this world!  The King still rules!

I have a new favorite spin top video.  My head exploded around 3:00.  Long live the King!  Thank you Pulp.

Pretty impressive and fun to watch him push his limits to finally drop.  Fascinating. 

It is worth studying!

The Earl bows to the King.

The first drop happens when Pulp asks him for a specific trick, Corbatines, although after the snap start he has no problem with it. When he does the Wheel of Fortune while twisting his body I imagine he wanted to move the top around his body while keeping the same movement but he did not succeed (but saved the top). At 1:08 he lets the string on the ring end drop and pulls up on the button side of the string with both hands: I wonder if it was a trick or a save.

The 1:08 trick is a real trick. I saw him performing that. He did that with smooth movement.
