What are tricks that, in your opinion, are harder than they seem? Right now, I can think of this trick at the 2:35 mark of Oakland Slay Day. Jake Wiens does this weird J-Stick Slinger fusion and I still can't get it to go for some reason.
Double and triple down earths. Also a down earth that starts from the upright position and then spins 1.5 tamas into a downspike. I call this trick a Pole Switch, try it, it is not easy. Also inward loons, they are just so hard for me to lace.
I will say Kendama. It looks a lot easier than it actually is a lot of people look at me when I am playing, and sometimes they want to try it and it is like "wow, how is it so hard?" (Trying big cup )
That sweets to loon was cool, gotta try that one for sure. I do this reverse mounted airplane and than spin the airplane a few times into a one turn loon, kinda reminds me of that.
This will be general but JUGGLES & INSTAS are simple yet hard, even if doing it by accident/sketch...
Same, whirlwinds changed my life. Whirlwind is the trick that I deemed literally impossible when I first played kendama. when I finally laced, it blew my mind how fast I could learn something if I just put all my efforts towards it.
