Just wait till you land your first kickflip. Nice stall, I find it hard to be that dead smooth. ---

Thanks. On a kick flip how big is the loop around your NTH index? I think my stalls are to small cause i can’t even see the loop as the yoyo is flipping around. ---

it should be bigger then that. Try pulling your fingers apart more before the Stall and make sure to raise your TH with the yoyo, otherwise you will pull the loop out. ---

It can be almost any size, but for ease id say like a 2 or 3 inch gap. Obviously no gap = no flip. Try to practice landing into a stall with a bit more gap (dont let the string wind up, find a point where you can get it to stop on the string). After a bunch of practice you will be able to land it reliably, and usually the slack you get from a nice stall is the perfect length to start to kickflip. Once you get the stall down, you need to learn the kickflip flick. I find it best to flick it up and inwards off of the inside of the outermost knuckle on the NTH finger. ---

To echo what’s been said, start big and work to small. I found it easier to start with a large loop and slow/deliberate flip. Once I found my groove I worked it smaller and smaller to hit that sweet spot that I can hit at a quicker speed. Patience and persistence too. ---

When you flick to flip you flip the you outwards or inwards ? I have been flipping it away from me… Lots of good pointers. Thank you all. ---

Nice!!! 🙂 I can definitely relate. Breakthrough tricks are always so satisfying. Part of what’s kept me going all these years. There’s a LOT more content on the Bandalores instagram: [www.instagram.com/bandalores](http://www.instagram.com/bandalores) Some of it is really easy and some is… really not. But if you run out of things to work on w the YYE tutorials I’m pretty proud of the content on there. Thanks for giving 0a a go - hope you keep digging it! 🙏🏼 ---

Throwing a yoyo that Ed once owned from Skip. No Jive’s need a bit of tweaking to respond well, but they are really nice! Much smaller than I expected. ![20200715_134047](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/7/9/0/790f3ef6938db205b7c228308841292147b912cd.jpeg) ---
