How about popping an eli hop and landing it behind your head and going from there? I think that looks pretty zazzy

When it comes to behind the back, you need to have a good feel for manipulating the yoyo behind your back. First get the hang of just getting it behind your back, then start to mess around to get a feel. Here is a good little combo to practice:  
Do a leg wrap trap into a behind the back trapeze  
Do multiple lindy loops, unroll them, then go into a trapeze and his bro  
Dismount into a trapeze.

Just watch videos of other people doing it. Get inspiration from then, and remember, be innovative!

Watch videos of Marcus Koh and Christopher Chia. Those guys are masters of behind the back stuff, especially Marcus.
