The trick in steps

  1. Throw a Sleeper

    Start with a strong Sleeper.

  2. Set it on the string

    Start the same as Elevator: lift the string with your index finger and place the yoyo against the string.

  3. Go under and around

    Move your hand under and around, placing your index finger at the middle of the string.

  4. Push and flip

    Keep your non-throw hand still while you push and flip the string and yoyo over once.

  5. Unfold, tug and catch

    Unfold the string, tug, and get the yoyo back to your hand.

Tips

  • Bend the string in your non-throw hand over your throw hand to start the motion

Common mistakes

  • Dropping all the strings before the return instead of unmounting
