Ok. Watched a million tutorials on this. But how can you tell if you are going up and down and not slightly forward and back ward if you are practicing. I have tried positioning my head directly above my string but it just throws me off. Any advice?

Actually, you do not really have to focus that much on your hand going up and down. You should be focusing on the momentum of the yoyo. Try watching this video. It might help.

This trick takes a lot more practice than it looks like.
