Ok so i’m moving from intermediate tricks to advanced but whetever i try, i can’t seem to bind. I’m following tutorials and videos and doing it all the right way but the loop just flicks off and the yoyo won’t grap. I’m using a YYj Legacy. Any advice? ---

When you bind you want to flick the loop behind the yo-yo. that should help quite a bit. ---

the faster the yoyo is moving the smaller the loop you want theslower the bigger the loop. I had the same trouble when i got my legacy just pull tighter before you let go of the loop ope i helped ---

Also when your in a trapeze you can swing the yoyo slightly to you the side of your non-throw-hand and than try to fling the loop in there. Should let it grab easier. The legacy is a hard yoyo to bind I had trouble it it my self. If that doesn’t work you can always do a double wrap bind. Just go completely around the yoyo and pop it up in the air that is how I learned. Later. Keep it spinning™ ---
