loosen the string that the yoyo hits,then it shouldn’t bounce back. For the missing, you will just need to practice ;D

It helps to practice from trapeze and to angle your throwhand down. I tried to exaggerate the motion here: [http://www.vimeo.com/14019510](http://www.vimeo.com/14019510)

Hitting the string consistently is just a matter of practice. There aren’t really that many tips that can be given to help with that.

For the issue of your yoyo bouncing off of the string, try bringing your hands slightly closer together immediately when the yoyo hits the string. That will give the yoyo enough slack to sort of swing into the mount instead of just hitting a tight string.
