I remember a tutorial done last year for one of the tutorial competitions, maybe the Rethink yoyo one, where they were shown, but can’t find it now. Pretty easy though honestly if you just try. Only hard part is managing the string burn. ---

They’re actually simple in concept but need A LOT OF PRACTICE, like I mean A LOT. I saw a tutorial the other day, I forgot where but I’ll do my best to find it. I’d make one but I can’t even do the move yet, but here’s what the tutorial said: Get into 1.5 mount you’re gonna do the same dismount motion as the yoyo is leaving the string you’re gonna do like a “Boomerang” but it’s gonna be to the side so basically, bring your TH to NTH before the yoyo reaches the end of the string your gonna pull you TH back to normal position as soon as the yoyo touches the upper string, do the same motion. I’m not sure if that explains it very well but i’ll do my best finding the video ! ---

That trick doesn’t look like it would induce string burn at all! ;D ---

I tried doing some of these last night… they’re deceptively simple-looking!! In addition to fear of string burn, I just can’t get them to go smoothly down at an angle like Jake (and other people!) do. I do some sort of awkward straight-down thing. It’s terrible. But they look great when they work, so I’mma keep at it… Maybe I need to bust out some “Magic Mitts” from the winter clothing box… ---
