What helped me, was practicing with the yoyo and ball when they weren’t spinning and just getting the swinging motion started with my hands. Then try doing it with the yoyo spinning. ---

I try that a lot but what i con’t get is when you pinch the string and swing up and down. Every time i try it it does one revelotion then stops. ---
