It helps a lot to accentuate the throw of the string, sometimes it helps to almost touch you non throw hand arm with you throw hand. it takes practice but try and aim using the string that goes into the gap instead. its a feel thing

Pinch the string as close to the yo-yo as you can. This should help a little. When you throw the string, pinch it between your thumb and forefinger and aim into the gap of the yo-yo when you throw.

It’ll come with time. Best of luck!

Theres not much of a trick to this, just intensive practise. Try to aim the string into the gap.

Sometimes taking your TH a little over your NTH when tossing can help you when you’re learning this trick.
