Monkeyfinger Belgeri Team

January 9, 2017 By Johnny Le

 

In the last year or so, there has been a surge of interest in a skill toy called Begleri in the last year. Begleri consists of one or more beads at either end of a short string or fine chain. The toy can be flipped and twirled around the fingers to perform tricks. MonkeyfingeR was definitely where I first saw it. Now they are starting up their own Begleri team. Interested in joining up with them? Well head over to their website and hit them up by emailing them a short 30 second clip and a brief “Who am I” video.

Hey gang its time MonkeyfingeR Expanded our Minions Begleri Team. If you think you have the flipping chops to join us. Drop us a 30-second vid and tell us about yourself in an email. Head on over to mfdyoyo.com Video quality counts! Good luck!

Mike Montgomery – Summertime

July 12, 2015 By Steve Brown

Mike Montgomery, aka Sleeveless in Seattle* aka MikeMontClassic, has a new video showing off his trademark style of trick construction. For those of you who haven’t been keeping track at home, Mike’s trick construction theory revolves around the concept of “start doing a thing everyone recognizes and then do a different thing” and you know what? It works.

Yoyo used is the Gelada 2 by Monkeyfinger.

 

 

 

 

*He’s not actually from Seattle, but Sleeveless in Caldwell, Idaho isn’t the name of a Tom Hanks movie. Although it could probably be the name of a Gus Van Sant movie.
