HousePets inspired yoyo trick names (now with video).

[yoyodude]

I'm shooting a yoyo trick video soon and had a cute idea. My plan is to have all the tricks in the video to have names inspired by the comic. The name of the trick will be displayed on the bottom of the frame while I perform them (there are tons of yoyo videos that do this, and I like the look).

I already have two tricks with housepets inspired names: "The Slightly Repetitive Adventures of Spot (Superdog)", and "Broom to your Face!". "The Slightly Repetitive Adventures of Spot (Superdog)" is a type of trick called a "Repeater", meaning the trick ends where it began so you can do it over and over. "Broom to your Face!" is a bit hard to describe, but the trick ends with a bang, so I thought it fit .

I'm trying to make the names make sense even to someone who deosn't read the comic. "The Slightly Repetitive Adventures of Spot (Superdog)" still works I think becasue I have a ton of tricks that have "Ledgendary" sounding names like "The Ledgend of Speedy McFast Fast", "The Heroic Chronicles of Captain AdventureFace", Etc. See, when you stick a Housepets related trick name in the list I wrote above, it doesn't stick out like a sore thumb . Plus, the yoyo comunity loves the absurd names I give to my tricks, so it cant hurt to come up with more wacky ones!

I'm working on more names but if anyone has any ideas I'd love to hear them

[Blue Braixen]

Wow, that's really cool, man.

[Aquablast]

Well, I would help, but too bad I know nothing about yoyo.

[yoyodude]

Lucklily, all you need is a litle creativity when coming up with names

I'm trying to think of a whole bunch so I can shoot a video with just HP related trick names.

More examples of names I've given my tricks, just to get an idea:

-The Unforgettable Tradgeties of Dr. Von Spider
-The Nightly Business of Sonic Boom Boom Renaldi
-The Epic Adventures of Greg Bodehr

See how well "The Slightly Repetitive Adventures of Spot (Superdog) fits in?

Unfortunately my creativity has run dry these last couple of days. I think the only reason I posted this idea is becasue I thought it would be fun to incorporate another one of my hobbies with the comic. Sort of like how I could of made my roller coaster just by itself, but instead I chose to slap the name Pizza Pavilion on it. I dunno

I used to have a trick yoyo like that... but then I sold it to play video games I am very impressed

[Obbl]

I know very little about yoyoing, but I definitely enjoyed this.
My favorite is the Magician Convention, cause I like magic (probably a bit more than yoyos, sorry)

But it was totally cool just watching you twist the yoyo all up around the string and then Whoosh! it all comes out without tangling.
Way beyond my ability to comprehend the skills involved here, so props, man

[yoyodude]

Thanks guys! Glad to see it still holds entertainment value hahaha.

Oh and Obbi, most people come out looking like your avatar when they're done watching modern yoyoing

[FarmMan1812]

I've tried doing tricks with Yoyo's.
I really suck at them. Haha
The only thing that I know how do with them is make them go up and down.

[Psykeout]

Happened to Eric Koloski. I actually met him at MA states, he's a wicked nice guy. Might have another video in the works, if you guys want I can link it here since this is already the off-topic section.
