There are actualy two ways to improve in tricking, but practicing, analysing other techniques, watching tutorials and making your own thoughts about tricks are non of them.

Instead you have to either travel through all parallel universes, killing your other selfs and become "The One", or decapitate other trickers to get their skills.

Either way can be hard and you have to decide on your own, which quest might be easier for you. First killing your other selfs would help you to level up and be ready to beat other Trickers in battles.

But if you're already pretty good, your other selfs will be at a higher level too, and battling other trickers will help you to get superior to them.

Some people even catch pokemons, to let them fight for them (e.g. watch Ajstyles sampler, or the mating call Team Jiayo uses in one of there vids)

I really hope I could help you and wish you best luck to become a pro tricker.

Not this. usually a double will telegraph whos pro or not but take Jaime colon, he's pretty "pro" if you ask me and he doesn't double right and left. Im no pro but i can spot one from a mile away. Pro is more of a general aura if you as me. They can speak from experiance, back up they're opinions and when they trick, you dont just watch them, you study them without knowing. you could stumble on a double cork but a pro could walk out there and do a regular cork and people will turn they're heads to see the single cork that the pro did just cause of the style, flow, finesse. Not just cause of who he/she is either. Any one whos been to a gathering knows, when a pro walks out there, the feel changes. people stop talking, heads turn. its a whole different feel.

haha, thanks, you both put a presence on the floor yourselves. But yes a pro tricker truely is someone who is paid to do it. I was paid by DPT for a while. he makes a chuck of his living tricking. Danny graham is the only person i know who makes 100% of his living by tricking (last i checked) i know LKs makes a big chunk but what he meant was the level of tricker that you can successfully call an "expert" so to say. one of those guys that makes everyone say wow at everything he/she does.

Exactly. He teaches lessons. He's opening a school that has a big focus on tricking and sport karate.
