Watch the video on this sight. Your not doing the right motion. Just watch the motion he does, takes some practice.

I didn’t try doing a Boing E Boing (after many failures) for a month and worked on other tricks.  
When I went back to it I did it on the first try because my hand was used to the motion.

Now many people have been saying that there is an up and down motion, which is correct. However, I have found it easier to think about it this way:

Pretty much you’re almost pulling at the OPPOSITE direction that the yo-yo is heading towards so you tug it back. Are you pinching the string with your thumb and index finger?
