This one has a change of direction and is pretty easy.&nbsp; Mostly its just a case of speed and confidence.&nbsp; Horizontal you don’t have time to stop and wonder, so just keep trying until you start landing it.&nbsp; I’d suggest a plastic yoyo and helmet to get you started 😛

Yoshi (his signature yoyo=cerberus) told me to throw upward and horizontal like a diagonal. It takes a while to get down but it will make all your throws perfectly horizontal.
