    Just one trick. @Abyss - I'm trying to keep the themes different for every battle. Themes will be different again in the final. I'm also keeping half an eye to try to keep themes different from World Cup too.

    Thumbindex spin is not ok. It has to be a Thumbspin.

    Red Zone;172387]for number battle 2 what about doing a palm spin multiple times[/QUOTE] Yeah you could do a cont. trick or something. [QUOTE=Abyss wrote: WtF I sonic? Isn't that the Bonkura thing?
    I think i-Sonic was originally invented by Kam. There is a video of it on Pentrix (if Pentrix is still about). Otherwise, maybe check the upsb.info/wiki or Youtube. Bonkura's is called 'Bonkura i-Sonic' I believe. You can do either, or any other i-Sonic variation. Btw, for the 2p2h theme, the entire combo does not have to be 2p2h, but it will say on the battle '2p2h theme', so it will be up to the public how much they care about how much 2p2h you do.

    A thumbspin is a thumbspin. In other words, yes.

    There is going to be a small delay in results and final announcement in this tournament. Expect the final in early March with a deadline for videos at the end of March and lineups somewhere inbetween.
