Use shorter string tbh. Or play over carpet. Eventually with practice you will be able to play without dropping your yoyo but it will still happen occassionally. ---

Shorter string. Or make an effort to raise your throw hand immediately after the throw. ---

Throwing over your finger can also help (and is a natural part of many tricks), but yeah, it’s like others said. Shorten your string and practice more. ---

Ok i ll try to make it shorter…after the bind sometimes when i throw the yoyo it stopped at half string and came back without bind. But if i retrhrow it with more power the yoyo goes normally in the sleeper…why it happens? ---

It may occur due to increased torsion/tension of the string. Make sure that you do some trick, which helps releasing torsion/tension, every once in a while. Or, if you still have not learned them yet, remove string off your finger, and let the string hang loose for a bit. To the problem of hitting your yoyo on the surface - practice, man. Get yourself a couple of cheaper plastic yoyos, and thrash your tricks with them, but try not to hit things with them. When you become somewhat good at not hitting surfaces with your yoyo - this is the point when you can try to throw some more expensive yoyos. ---

Thank you for the advice…but it happens rarely that i hit the ground…i think it s torsion/tension problem like u say…sometimes the yoyo come back and sometines the yoyo go down so fast cause the string it s not rolled up good…my metal yoyo except the wilderness r a little scratched but it s ok…i will buy more yoyos in the future XD
