when you swing the yoyo around, try to keep the string more spaced out on your fingers ---

Just swing the yoyo around your two fingers, and then think to yourself that all you have to do now is land the yoyo on Trapeze. ---

> [@x52](#): > > Just swing the yoyo around your two fingers, and then think to yourself that all you have to do now is land the yoyo on Trapeze. This. Make sure your strings are almost in a zig-zag pattern. There will be more space in between the strings and less chance for the yo-yo to land on multiple strings. Practice the last part as x52 described in getting the final trapeze in. When you try to do the whole trick in a fluid motion all that practice with the final trapeze will come in handy in having a consistent double-or-nothing. ---

You could also do a trapeze, pinch the loop and swing it over ---
