I’m having trouble after the modified Double-or-Nothing where I have to hit the string on the first go around. I can’t seem to have the yoyo and the string aligned for some reason and none of the videos tackle this issue What am I doing wrong? I’m just hitting air when I try to do a rotation ---

Hard to tell what the problem is without a video, but I would recommend that when you go for the rotation, make sure you are staying in the plane of the spin of the yoyo. Then watch the videos closely, see which string you need to hit, and make sure it’s in the path of your rotation. ---

I’m not the OP, but I’ve never been able to do Yuuki Slack and I wouldn’t mind a quick tutorial. ---

I would practice this trick with longer string (not that it can’t be done with short string, it just gives you more wiggle room) 2. Loosening the taughtness of the string before the yoyo comes into contact with it is important, if you don’t, the slack will not be able to revolve! If there are any other nuances I glazed over just let me know and I can refilm 🙂 ---

@Damb, I finally got around to giving it a try based on your video and tips. Landed it first try, 4 or 5 repetitions :joy: After so long, all I needed was a proper Damb tutorial. ---
