Try to keep the sting that’s attached to your finger and the loop lined up. Keep pulling the loop up in a consistent motion. Hope that helps a bit. Just keep practicing and you’ll get it.

> Not using the bearing that came with the butterfly yo-yo. Pretty obvious by the bearing sound. Also what helped me not get angry and throw my yo-yo against the wall was to just remember it’s a trick that takes time (or a long time) and it will one day come to you if you just keep trying.

I find it way easier to do if you perform a couple rolls and/or flips to add a few wraps around your throw hand index finger, artificially shortening the string. That keeps it a bit more stable and makes the bouncing area smaller, so there’s less chance of it popping out the side. Eventually, you can work your way up to less wraps.

Remember for boingy, the hand motion is up and down, it took me way longer to internalize that than I care to admit.

it took me ~ 6 months to learn that trick and I guess it will take me forever to master it.  
My trick to learn it was to rotate my body clockwise a bit, keep the yoyo closer to the throw hand side (instead of in the center), so that my throw hand can be super comfortable moving up & down, without bending my wrist.  
I would say just keep practicing and one day all of sudden you will feel “oh I get it”.

I agree with all of the above, also I find that practicing barrel rolls helps with my boing-e game because it gives me practice at keeping my hands/string aligned properly.

I use a Shutter Wide Angle as well, love that throw!
