The trick in steps

  1. Pinch the string

    Start in a Trapeze, then hop the yoyo off and pinch the string between your index and middle finger.

  2. Send the slack over

    Swing your throw hand to the other side so the string slack goes over your non-throw arm.

  3. Land on the far string

    Land the yoyo on the string farthest from you.

  4. Swing in and bind

    Swing inwards, over both hands, to get back into a Trapeze. Then do a Sidestyle Bind to return the yoyo to your hand.

Tips

  • Pinch the string with your non-throw hand thumb and index finger
  • Drop the string from your non-throw hand when the string reaches the yoyo
  • Unroll into Trapeze over both hands

Common mistakes

  • Wrong string release timing
  • Not pinching the string
  • Tangled string
  • Landing on the wrong string
  • Creating a string wrap around the bearing when dismounting
