I’ve been playing for a few months and marching may way through many of the tricks in the learn section (almost done advanced section 2)

I’ve been having a pretty consistent problem with my front style play and thought I might as well ask if anyone has suggestions. Basically, my yoyo starts leaning/turning to the left when I throw to the front. I even stopped and just practiced my throw for quite a while and most of the time it is flat as it should be. But the yoyo lean problem has made it impossible for me to learn tricks like boing e boing, over under boing e boing, mach 5, etc.

Any help is appreciated.

If it’s turning right or left turn with the yoyo. If it’s actually leaning you can move the string on your throw hand index right or left ot make it go right or left when in a split bottom mount.

Yup. But a picture is worth a thousand words, so a video is worth like a million words? 😛 Videos generally help more than words.
