The trick in steps
- Get into 1.5 Mount
Start as you would for Double or Nothing, but stop halfway. Shoot the yoyo up into the top string and swing it over your throw hand index finger.

Keep the yoyo on the string and swing it up and over your non-throw hand to the other side.
- Push against the string
With your non-throw hand index finger, push against the string attached to your middle finger and swing the yoyo onto that string.
- Return to 1.5 Mount
Shoot the yoyo up against the string again to get back into a 1.5 Mount.
- Dismount to Trapeze
Unfold the strings to land in a Trapeze.
- Do a Sidestyle bind
Do a Sidestyle bind to get the yoyo back to your hand.
