Okay will friday I was watching the video and realized instead of whipping the string(cool way) you coulddo something like a reverse brain twister mount but holding string in had like a bat, then really quick you flip you front hand holding those 2 strings grab the closest one to you(the one that was in the frint first) and tada just pull…

P.S. Is that allowed to be called gyroscopic flop ???

Anything with the yoyo spinning around the string is a gyroscopic flop.

Anyway, it’s not as effective as the whip method, as you might have seen me post about, it spins a lot slower. The whip method will make the flops really fast.
