Are you talking about uppers alone, or your freestyle level in general?
That's the time I spent only on uppers, my lower level wasn't high enough to take considerable time to remaster (I was at like 3 trick combos). Juggling took ages to learn again because of depth perception issues, but as soon as i got juggling down everything came back naturally. Uppers were the biggest struggle because I couldn't see on the right side of my face.

Yeah, respect for that, must be frustrating to freestyle in 2D.  :wtf:

So you dont have any problems with relearning uppers when your eyesight is ok?

Hahaha I still see normal! The human body learns to adapt to changes! I really don't have a problem with depth perception anymore unless there's a shadow under my ball (lowers.)

When I did have perfect vision I think I stopped for a couple weeks, my consistency is ridiculous though so I don't think my level dropped at all. I also didn't have a problem going hardcore as fuck as the AGT auditions and that was the first time I did uppers in months. It really depends on the persons consistency.
