When you swing it, does it hit the gap of the yoyo?

Hook is a good one.

Instead of getting 2 strings around you finger like in Hook do it with one and quickly move your throwhand forward.

Don’t aim for the gap of the yoyo when doing the brent stole, aim for your fingers, don’t care about the yoyo. Aim behind the yoyo. There will be two strings coming around. Only let the back string hit your finger, then bring your throwhand forward. You really have to keep practicing and watch the video.
