I couldn’t imagine learning the short stop before bt8b it took me forever to short stop and I was already satisfied with the amount of tricks I could do before even landing a short stop
Struggling on short stop tbh. It really looks like 2 seperate movements when I do it as opposed to 1 smooth motion. Smh. Ill get it eventually tho lol!
same same
@@G0ATHR0B 100% you can get it! just keep going at it and you'll have it down before you even know it
It took me so long to learn short stop and even after being able to do it for months now I still only got it like 60%.
@@G0ATHR0Bthe thing that took me forever to get was being able to maintain the momentum while transferring from your middle and thumb to between your middle and ring. It is important to not disturb the balisong while you are moving between the 2 sections and whatever angle you started the reverse thumb roll over needs to be maintained the whole time to hit a clean shortstop. Try not to tilt your hand to the left or right once you are using your middle and ring finger. Once you get each motion of the 2 parts down separately as clean as possible then start with doing the thumb rollover and just try and switch to your middle and ring and keep doing just that part over and over again until you get a feel for how the timing and momentum carries over. And after that try and continue the momentum to where you swap to middle and ring and just throw the blade and bite handle up over the back of your middle finger like you were going to go into a reverse middle finger chaplin. And then drill that until you get it as clean as possible. Once you can do that then the rest of it becomes much easier to feel out and it will become natural to do the whole thing as one smooth motion. Hope this makes sense lol. Short stop took me so so long to get smooth and all this stuff is info I wish I would have had from the beginning.
Learning behind the 8 ball was somewhat difficult, but once I got it, it made combining tricks waaaaayyyyy easier and also led to a sort of burst of creativity that allowed me to start making my own combos
I had this exact experience honestly but with helix instead
It kind of just came to me how to flow with my balisong flipping.
I really do love these "ez"/POV/vlog style videos!
Behind the 8 ball was like my 2nd move to learn. If you do just 3/4 of it(catch in an ice pick instead of doing the bite handle wrist pass catch) , it is almost impossible to cut yourself.
I did this when learning helix, stopping the final rotation early by catching the safe handle to avoid catching the bite and doing wrist pass. Unfortunately it kind of made a normal helix harder for me :(
So what does like no RUclips commenter actually start flipping with a trainer?
@@Florp3434 my first balisong was a bear and sons live blade, heavy af, non adjustable pins and non adjustable latch, I have a trainer now so it's fine but I built that bad habit with the live blade helix, it's getting smoother tho
@@Florp3434 when I started flipping Squid was still a baby company and trainers weren't so prevalent. Now that trainers are a big thing I have pretty much stopped flipping live blades.
Thats really helpful from you. You basically confirmed that I started doing on my own. Even if my options are rather limited. I got the behind the 8 ball nailed down rather quickly so that helped. But for some reason my brain is not capable of connecting the 2 steps for the short stop properly.
I’ve been flipping for about 2 months and I learned the behind the 8 ball after only learning the basic open and y2k because of your video and it has made learning a lot of other tricks much easier. It definitely has so many fundamentals inside of it that translate to many many tricks. Thanks for the advice! Helped me a lot
I haven't been watching a lot of balisong content recently but i just had to say i really like your nail paint.
I almost spilled coffee on my BRS shirt while watching this lmao.
Nice video, really got me thinking of ways to get out of a major block ive had with my go to combo, thanks for the amazing content as always!
Are those space invaders on your cracker rack in
Could you do a video on wrist pass? I am new and am super confused about what it is but I know it is very important
Flip better? I hardly kno-
thank you for this Video! It helps me a lot!
What he does towards the end with the dead end continuation is called for example in the dance freestyle world Labbing so like experimenting for good combinations of movements and as a dancer myself this is now taking me to that perspective in my flipping so thanks will for the awesome video (as usual)
Yes! Labbing is essential in flipping as well
Dancing X Balisong flipping, the crossover everyone needed
@@Florp3434 yo we need that holy moly would love to see that
@@dryelene someone's flipping 2 balis at the same time and also dancing. That would actually be awesome lmfao
@@Florp3434 might be getting a little too ambitious here but imagine gymnastic moves like backflips or something, true zero g chaplins??
Seriously, the moment I learned the Bt8b I started realizing that all these tricks are interconnected like a web
I'm sorry, did this dude just say that the "shortstop" is a beginner trick while implying it's easier than Behind the 8 ball??
I learned Bt8b way faster than Shortstop haha, just me?
Nah I'm just crazy lol, I also learned bt8b faster
One person I learned flow from is arvid bali because he is so smooth
This experementation is what causes everyone to flip differently and uniquely at the end of the day

Hey will would you be able to make a chadder and of giraffe tutorial
B8B teaches you so much more than a good trick. I think it's the greatest trick of all time tbh. I'm high intermediate and although the chadder feels great and looks flashy the B8B is smooth and rewarding, it's a flashy but easy to learn trick if you have the prerequisites down. Love this video Will.
Your balisong 101 video was almost about the first one i watched, you went right into the index and thumb rollover which i am very thankful for now, as it was the 2nd trick I learned right after the standard double rollout. Another great vid lol, my flow is terrible atm but at least i know a hellton of fundamentals thanks to you and other awesome creators
How do I get better transitions from trick to trick?
helix into bt8b into cherry picker (if you can do it) is my favorite warmup to just get my fingers working and flow started in the morning, and its a great small combo to practice as a new flipper to work on flow. even if you cant do cherry picker just the helix into bt8b is great.
What I like as a warmup is rev 8ball to extended twirl to pinky roll then a ladder.
Hey Will, how many times would you say you have to do a specific trick to 1: up your finger dexterity and 2: get consistent with the trick, for an example trick, the Behind the 8 Ball
It’s different for everyone, people start with different finger dexterities, Id suggest just doing over and over until it’s smooth and you’re confident enough to do it without thinking, work on “fluidness” before worrying about speed
How long do you flip a balisong
I do tricks with Playing Cards, Balisongs, and Zippo. Fore some hard card trick i need couple of hours practicing, but for balisong and zippo tricks, no matter how dificult they are i need 15 minutes. Its just came out of me, eazy.
I'd love to learn cardistry. It looks very trippy
Flippity dippity 😍🍓
Very nice video
Very pog video
i fw ur nails
With my experience, heres my opinion on the matter.
Always act like no one likes you. That doesn't mean you shouldn't cut everything and everybody off. Be social, be friendly.
When a girl/boy gives you attention, act accordingly. If it progresses, act accordingly.
You want to be approachable.
What’s is the orange things in the bottom of your handles I kinda want those so I can prevent getting bad marks on the corners
They are from Tay Flipper!
That knife is a work of art
Thank you so much for this video, flow has been something I’ve been stuck on for so long.
Hi will! Thank you so much for this! This video helped me out a ton and I really appreciate you taking time out of your day to help random people on the internet like me :)
omg that balisong looks absolutely beautiful in 4k
will you be reviewing the nautilus V2?
Yes!
3:37 whats that loop combo?
i have no idea what it's called but he did a tutorial on it in this Balisong 101 video
Index to thumb rollover
Thanks for flipping in a pleasing manner…lol🤘🤣
I just got my first trainer today lmao
My trainer loosens within ten minutes of me flipping everytime 😭
1:37 I learned helix before behind the 8 ball after learning y2k thumb roll
So at the end of behind the 8 it goes around twice? I thought once . I'm new. Thx
how do you record the will Hirsch flips videos
where 60fps?
I forgot
The way I gasped when you dropped it
where do you learn most of your tricks
Man I traded my kraken 2.5 for a carbon fiber nautilus and I regret every think my nautilus came out of the box with bad tolerances and I got this from squid industry’s and I haven’t been able to fix it
Damn that sucks, you might want to try sending it to them to be fixed
Awesome video will this really helped
Can we just appreciate how clean his Z Choker fans are
It’s insane how good they are
You're talking about you not having good flow but you're so smooth, maybe it's just because of perspective but to me your flow looks insane
Where did you get the caps on the end of the handles??
Zippy Balisong
Whats on the bottom of your handles?
They are 3d printed caps.
Thanks a ton for this, it's really helping me to see how to glue all the disparate moves together. Also love the nail polish!
Does the little move at 1:59 have a name?
it's called a z choker
@@steveglitter Thanks!
you gir?
What?
@@VanLupenhe’s asking “you girl?” I think
