Follow up, was totally failing on this first video rejection part. I want back over the video and found I wasn’t wrapping the string far enough towards me as it goes around my hand/thumb. That and having the Yoyo close to the TH when you reject helped a bunch. Maybe this will help someone struggling with this.

Im still struggling on this one. I go to do the rejection and the string gets caught on my thumb and doesn’t whip around the yoyo because it’s caught up on my hand.

What suggestions would you make for that? I tried to have the string go through my palm and closer to my wrist, but I still get stuck on my thumb. I am guessing I need to not pull it towards me as much with my thumb maybe.

Edit- of course I post this and then try it with a much higher success rate. 🤦‍♂️
