[@redlineproductions99]

It’s funny tho how he tried so hard to be enthusiastic abt clicking the bell, but he couldn’t because he’s just so layed back🤣🤣

[@Yes-ev6fx]

this tuturial got me doing this trick consistently within 30 minutes thank you so much

[@14.99plustax]

i finally got the fan down today, and i also did a thumb rollover -> fan -> basic aerial. i messed up the aerial a little bit though, still felt good.

[@notensoep5197]

very happy i got the factory tour yesterday and to get to see how these are made. keep it up guys

[@redlineproductions99]

Jelly can make any Bali look way better than it actually is

[@haneulcho3759]

those combos just look so smooth when he does it

[@kevinschantalle]

...love squid toturials is the best....thanks for ending age of worst toturials and make a awesome job!!!

[@baliflaps]

Are y’all going in order of complexity? If not I’d love to see some more advanced tricks and or combos

[@SquidIndustriesco]

We will have those later! We want to release the beginner ones first since a lot of those will be prerequisites for the harder ones :)

[@baliflaps]

@@SquidIndustriesco ok sounds great! I’m just glad y’all are finding even more ways the invest in the community!

[@cloud-blade-ball]

OMG I'm getting it! Thank you so much for your tutorial!!

Channel is so underrated

[@Flamed_CAD]

Amazing tutorial!

[@nightskypanda5458]

I just started flipping a few days ago. Only know a few tricks that I'm okay at not consistent but still progress. The fan is not one of them, it is the hardest trick I've been trying and I cannot get the hang of it lol.

[@johnlithgow968]

Any advice on when your handle is to grippy?

[@waterH20_23]

loosen your grip

[@BEANZEDITS]

bro ngl ive been trying to learn for months and learned nothing now i found squid industries and i alredy learnt 6 tricks

[@ru_dog_2894]

Bro ive been struggling with the fan, then heard the life changing advice: Just jiggle. Thank you

[@ru_dog_2894]

Nah fr though love you just got my squiddy al today and love it

[@linkystinky]

Hey! Just wanted to say this is a great tutorial, but i have one question, when i use my regular squiddy for this trick, the blade stays straight up, how can i stop this?

[@juan.7712]

Go fastsd

[@cms788]

i have that same problem on my squiddy

[@emepgai9466]

I'm struggles for days and keep get the blade pointing up. If you get that too, use less force let the balisong momentum spin itself, and grip more loosely give more room for the safe handle to spin and slightly tilt it forward

[@ghostmelon64]

@@emepgai9466 THHXXXX SOOOO MIUCCHH!!!!!!

[@Lunar360]

doing this with a cheap balisong is pretty hard for me because it's heavy and it doesn't spin that well

[@rusc4019]

Same here 🫥

[@leonnl2925]

What do you find heavy

[@asura_death]

is it a metal one?

[@purpledcabbage]

time stamps have labeled the "reverse fan" section as "vertical chaplin breakdown". not sure if that was intentional

[@ShohjahonAbduqayumov-r9q]

Thanks you for a lot of combos

[@blablaqe_2948]

I have a very cheap balisong and I struggle with the blade just going up instead of making the T. Sometimes I can perform it correctly, but im not sure about my technique. Any solutions? Update: I can do it if I hold the handle really close to the blade and the other handle.

[@Dragon-bl2qd]

I have a same problem :/ gonna save up money to buy a nice trainer 👍

[@baliflaps]

Jelly how long have you been flipping for? Your insane!

[@baliflaps]

@Turkey’s that’s crazy!

He has been flipping since 2019!

[@metalcore_slaps]

Ive been flipping since 2020 and im kind of a new advanced flipper

[@cloud-blade-ball]

When I try to fan, the position goes to the blade sticking out at the top and the bite handle fanning. How do I fix this?

[@computeurhuman6940]

Im french: thanks you, it’s really nice tutorial, in 1h maximum, i know the fan ❤

[@Halfsynics]

Does squd industries ship to Europe?

[@allyantrix4691]

how do i prevent the blade from sticking out ?

[@kurogane2x]

same, i can easily do the fan if I spin it counter clockwise but doing it clockwise just makes the blade stick out and the handle spinning.

[@catjesusbean]

How did you do that slo mo airel it looks perfect on .25x speed

[@RebeccaStout]

This is supposed to be easy, but for the life of me, I can't do it. I can feebly do the spike fan. That's it. I'm so bummed because this little trick looks amazing for something so supposedly simple

[@pangkoy1086]

As a beginner what bali trainer do you recommend? I'm on a budget. $60-100.

[@indiragraham9517]

Any Squiddy or mako, my mako v4.5 is great but you might want a squiddy b

[@SquidIndustriesco]

We highly recommend the Mako.

[@xxraptorsc0pezxx]

The Nabalis Vulp is fantastic and only $65

[@TheLOkado]

just trying the fan rn not getting it... i will keep trying how long did it take you guys to do it sucsessfully for the first time?

[@Ulam009]

Is squiddy balisong works too?

[@Wise-One.]

Yes, it does

[@BobThef]

Bro why does my blade stay up like pointing at the sky wtf

[@mattjaydengarces2572]

Yeah me too

[@nymphaaaaaaa]

@@mattjaydengarces2572 It flattens when you go faster

[@PeanutButtersworth]

Hey Jelly, I know that this is an old vid, but I can't do the fan and I have a cheap all metal Bali from Amazon. I plan to upgrade to the Will Hirsch x Nabalils trainer, but It's very handle heavy. Is that why I can do it or is it a skill issue?

[@future_phonk]

Thank you.

[@claussong6978]

I managed to do the basic fan from this turtorial but the reverse one is so hard

[@SUPRAAAAAAAAAAAA9]

Thanks bro i learned the trick

[@Karter_-.swag100]

I just wanna see jelly flip lmao

[@lllorez]

How to you get it to stay a T so constantly? The blade always wants to stick up rather than out for me.

[@cookie-mn1vw]

handle biased balisong. squidtrainer (which is what hes using) is neutral

[@ezetokiel2853]

this move is so difficult for me like the bite handle and the blade tend to keep closing going closer

[@itz_Kumaa]

I’m ngl the squidy trainer was insanely good it’s super durable but the only problem is that the damn screws keep falling out so u have any tips to fix?

[@nopedynopenope107]

your comment is a few months old so maybe youve figured it out already but if you havent, use thread locker glue on your screws.

[@alanliu9876]

just search some tutorials on youtube, locktite, teflon tape, etc.

im trying it with the squiddy but i dont think it has enough weigh or something because only the handle is fanning not the blade aswell

[@ianlee8297]

I’ve been flipping for 3 months but I still can’t do the fan it just randomly stops

[@ZonaLol0000]

everytime i try the blade flicks up and doesnt go back down till i stop the trick pls help

[@piko_moo]

please help I keep doing spike fan instead of regular fan, I tried to do it faster but the it goes to a position where the index finger is in between the handle and the blade. Any advice?

[@RebeccaStout]

Same

[@johnmorton6229]

What's the secret to getting the blade to not stick up when trying to fan? I've seen comments just say "gO fAsTeR" but speed doesn't help when the blade STARTS sticking out immediately after going into the open.

[@dinosharttt]

You just have to keep trying it I had the same problem but your gonna get it

[@JuniorMafia]

when you open it try to pinch high with your index, it'll help balance the handle and blade to the T shape

can you do the trick on your intro please

[@acegomez]

Someone help the knife stays up when i spin it, some tips on how to fix that?

[@anartresar]

here’s a problem I have trying to do this; not sure why it keeps happening yet, but whenever I try to keep fanning, the blade just won’t stay parallel with the bite handle, and instead, it’s parallel with the safe handle. not really sure how to word it exactly, I guess the knife stays horizontal instead of vertical. maybe the blade I have (not rlly a blade, it’s a comb) is too heavy but idk.

[@rileywall1249]

You are just spinning too slow… if you spin faster the blade will fall and be in line with the bite handle instead of the safe one

[@mooeykucing]

@@rileywall1249 I can nail it now, thanks for that, I didn't realize at the time. I also just now realized that a better way to describe my problem was that I kept doing a spike fan instead of a regular one... :D

Hey guys, i know this video is a bit old so i dunno if i'll get any responces but I'm having some trouble getting this fan (i've been trying for a few days). Whenever I use the momentum of the handle the blade always sticks up creating a sideways t if that makes sence (like a t on it's side). Maybe it's got something to do with my bali weight distrabution? Please help

[@Rednaxela726]

My bite handle just wants to merge with my blade. I'm just going to stick to basic openings.

[@SquidIndustriesco]

A handle that merges with your blade is usually referred to as a Closed Fan. That's not technically a bad thing but it's a slight variation of the basic fan. Keep trying and you'll definitely get it!
